Or did I just dream that?
Marquis or Hume?
Must have dreamt it .... Marquis £1m, Harness £800k, Harrison £450k all well above Hume's £200k, and I wouldn't be surprised if we had some more bigger than that in the Paul Cook days.
Just listened to the Cullen broadcast and you didn't dream it ... he said it !
I just hope that doesn't mean we paid over £1m for Hume, because it has been widely reported as around the 200k mark.
Couple of things surprised me on the wage/transfer finances - the wage bill is now higher than it was pre-January, and its seems a lot of that is down to the very expensive wages of Walker!!!!! ; and the 200k paid for Hume was more than the club received for Harrison, Marquis and Brown in transfer fees.
