This is our Transfer Records (post £1m) and my opinion on if they were a HIT or MISS

£1,450,277 - Steve Daley (Wolverhampton Wanderers - 1979) MISS also a British record
£2.5M - Keith Curle (Wimbledon - 1991) HIT
£3M - Lee Bradbury (Portsmouth - 1997) MISS
£3.65M - Paulo Wanchope (West Ham United - 2000) HIT
£5M - Jon Macken (Preston North End - 2002) MISS apart from the Spurs 3-4
£13M - Nicolas Anelka (Paris Saint Germain - 2002) HIT
£19M - Jo (CSKA Moscow - 2008) MISS
£32.5M - Robinho (Real Madrid - 2008) HIT at home MISS away from home also a British record
£38M - Sergio Aguero (Atlético Madrid - 2011) HIT
£44M - Raheem Sterling (Liverpool - 2015) HIT
£54M - Kevin De Bruyne (VfL Wolfsburg - 2015) HIT
£57M - Aymeric Laporte (Athletic Bilbao - 2018) Looking like a HIT
£60M - Riyad Mahrez (Leicester City - 2018) too early but not a great start so far IMO

Never broken the world record for a transfer and only broke the British transfer record twice in the post £1m era, also broke it for Dennis Law in the pre £1m era, so 3 times in total.

Ruining football we are!

It's weird to think we broke our transfer record for Jo!

Macken wasn't given a chance imo. When he played he showed some good stuff. Scored at WHL in the famous comeback too.

He did but the fact was that we bought him to prove we were bigger than Preston!

Rag cunt!

Macken a rag? He played for their academy but openly admits to being a City fan growing up, with his dad taking him to watch us. Unless I've got that totally wrong?
