Howard going for £600k

On a par as the worst bit of business in my lifetime ..... along with the following

David Hirst to Wednesday £250k
Larry May to Wednesday £200k
David Speedie - given away for nowt
Phil Gridelet - paying actual money for him, thought to be incredously, £150k! Could get a nice house for that.

any more??

 

Peter Sand. 250k

 

Jesus, yes Peter Sand

forgot about that one

a worthy addition to the list

 

RE: Jesus, yes Peter Sand

Rankin £350k

 

Kim Christensen - £250k

Miguel Mossto - £400k

If those figures are correct.

Even if they were halved, they're still a complete waste of f'kin money.

I mean, you could buy 4 Phil Gridelets for that.

 

£1 million for Sheron nt

 

£50,000 for Mattis! nt

 

How much did we get for Mick Butler from Huddersfield? nt

 

To be fair to them both - have/were they been given a fair chance?

Still reckon Christenson would have been a good player

 

</p>

David Hirst to Wednesday &pound;250k was big money for an kid at the time. </p>

Larry May to Wednesday &pound;200k again it was a fair sum then.</p>

David Speedie - Didn't show much in a reds shirt apart from being a trier with a temperament problem. </p>

Phil Gridelet - Was highly rated when he came and had it not been for serious injury could have been a very good player for the reds.</p>

Howard 600k on his post Wembley form is over priced. Lets wait and see what develops tomorrow.</p>

Before I forget, don't believe what you read about transfer fees. An ex-Chairman told a referee friend of mine that one player who was reported to have gone for X amount of &pound; was actually transfered for double the reported fee.

Oh and McIndoe - £150k . That still angers me.

Best left winger in the league imho.

 

oh im not doubting that mate

the best player in the world would be a waste of money if you decide to stick him in the reserves.

 

250..still a steal

nopt that we had any choice in the matter

 

True - what might have been though

Still a nagging feeling he could have done a good job

 

Really?

Sorry mate, you are totally wide of the mark if you thought they were good deals.

 

Hirst was a massive give away

we should have held on another season and the fee would have gone through the roof.

Piggies knew we were skint and we hardly put up any resistance

 

we could when we negotiated his contract mate!

 

RE: Hirst was a massive give away

i read that as "Hirsty is a massive gay"

I think its time to go to bed..

 

How much did we let John Beresford go for?

He was our best player that season and we let him go to Portsmouth on transfer deadline day when both clubs were challenging for promotion

 

RE: Hirst was a massive give away

!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
whatever floats ya boat
