So as a general statement to claim that Jackett funded his own spending is not too much of an exaggeration.
Pity he didn't spend it better, but he still came a penalty shoot-out away from success.
Harness was undisclosed but widely reported to have been £700k.
You're right, it was more than 150k. I'd forgotten what we paid and made the mistake of believing Transfermarkt.com, which said 150k.
The News reported at the time that he was more than Harrison's 450k, and it was a figure 'approaching 1m'.

We sold him for 750k according to the Ipswich press.
