Interesting - what about Jason Lee? He left shortly after Stan didn't he?

Always liked Jason Lee - a proper player.

£250,000 to Forest in the following season

£250,000 to Forest in the following season

£250,000 was far too low a price for him. Is that right? (A bit of a rhetorical question really).

I thought it was £400,000 but I'm most likely wrong.

Goodness me, he was sold on the cheap.

 

[CrippsCorner]

It says on Stan's Wiki that he sold from Southend > Forest for £2.25 million?

I think that was the original fee before sell ons.

 

[Mad Cyril]

Am I correct that Blackburn offered £1m for Brett Angell

 

[Yorkshire Blue]

Am I correct that Blackburn offered £1m for Brett Angell

I suspect that was Vic trying to talk up a bidding war.

 

[The Original Tribal Chief]

I suspect that was Vic trying to talk up a bidding war.

I’m sure you’re right. I think they did make an offer though, somewhere closer to £400k.

 

[Target man]

Justin Edinburgh? Wasn't that around 100k to Spurs?

 

[Wise Head]

Riki Otto to Birmingham City Council for a large sum. £800k?

 

[Napster]

None of these were record transfers though
