Someone on twitter pulled the figure out of their arse

One article states that Pompey paid 800,000 to Burton.
The News 'understands' (chuckle) that the 'undisclosed' figure paid by Ipswich is 750,000. The 30 page document that makes up the Club accounts for 2019-20 don't seem to list individual transfer fees (but then I'm not an accountant and have probably misunderstood something). In short, I'm still no clearer to understanding your argument. It all appears to be conjecture. Please clarify because I've obviously missed something.

Oh and where has the 'club announced'?

I always thought Deep was better researched than that.

I think the figure was only mentioned in The News, there was nothing from the club. Even the BBC transfer website says undisclosed.

I can't wait to see your evidence that the figures reported in Burton, Portsmouth & Ipswich (which correlate with each other) are wrong and for you to tell us why you know better than the journalists who talk to the clubs daily.
Cowley also said in an interview that we had recouped our spend on Harness. How much do you think he we was bought and sold for and what is your source ? And don't just say your certain knowledge that everything reported in the papers is wrong. But I'll grant you that the accounts on the OS do not show the individual transfers any more - they always used to.
21-08-2022, 11:08 AM
But you claimed that they did!
I haven't actually claimed anything, just questioned your sources.
21-08-2022, 11:22 AM
Because 1 person makes it up and they all run with it as ‘reported’.
So they don’t disclose the fee and then the clubs all run to the press and disclose the fee!! Come on DB, time to drop this silliness.

Jed Wallace release clause comes to mind. It's the sequel folks

I can't be arsed to get into a long debate about this.
But I just don't understand the mentaility of fans who think their club lies to them. Or in this case thinks that three separate clubs collude to tell the same lie. There is plenty of consistent evidence that Harness' fee on both occasions was in the 750/800 range, and absolutely zero evidence that it was any lower than that. I have not seen a single report anywhwere quoting any other amount, but I await the links to that evidence in reply. And Scumslayer, who was it proved right about Wallace having a 250k release clause and going for 750k ? Catlin confirmed it publicly.

Lol here we go again, stop replying if you don’t want a debate.
The clubs haven’t lied, they haven’t said anything!! Reported doesn’t mean said. Why would they say the fee is nondisclosed and then disclose it? Why not just say what the fee is from the off? Made up figures on twitter.

Sorry Deep but you’ve not covered yourself in glory.
You provided two links which don’t agree with each other and made a claim that you subsequently had to accept was false. Now you don’t want to continue with a debate you’ve, apparently, lost. I can see why that might be. Humble pie might be in order.

I thought it would be because the accounts always used be the source for the precise amount per player. I hadn't checked because I saw no reason to doubt the figures being reported in three different newspapers. I have no doubt in my mind that Harness was bought and sold for a figure in the region of 750/800, and anyone that wants to argue against that is really arguing with three newspapers, not me. We know some of the money was spent on Bishop, widely reported as 500k, so that adds support to the Harness fee being more than that. I really cannot see 750/800 being far out and I see absolutely no reason to doubt that it is about right. I repeat, there is no evidence to the contrary. Provide that and I'll eat even more humble pie.

You are the one who is saying 3 newspapers are correct though. Remember the player, I think from Barnsley that we were supposed to sign and the News followed up another papers reports? 2 days later they reported we were never in for the player. See how it happens?! Where are the quotes from the 3 clubs confirming the amount?

"Lol, I knew you couldn’t leave it"
Nor can you. Why is this so important?
