The crazy sums of money being bandied about on European transfer deadline day got me wondering.

 

Which player to have graced the TCS turf has commanded the highest transfer fee (at any point in his career)?

Wanyama was my first thought or maybe Flo at Rangers? Not sure if he played at TCS but Steven Fletcher now of Sunderland former Hibernian. All these players were £12m fees.

would be wanyama i think (12.5 million), followed by fletcher(12 million). who scored 4 goals in his time with hibs against us all of them at easter road in 12 attempts and he never won at tcs in 6 attempts, and only won 3 times out of 6 at easter road. proving once again money dont beat ict. (this all according to tranfermarkt.co.uk)

 

after those 2 there would be a few of those pocket change £9 million players like gordon, hutton, mcgeady (9.5).

Must be my old mate Marius - wonder what his transfer fees added up to ?

 

Roughly the same as his legal bills.

Will be interesting to see if Everton actually move for James McCarthy this evening, with talk of a £10m-£15m deal.

I thought of Robbie Keane who would have been more expensive, however he missed out from the records I could find.

Keane was on loan to Celtic the season we were in Division One.

 

Bellamy must be the player who has cost most money during his career, my calculations are that he has cost the following

 

Norwich > Coventry - £6m

Coventry > Newcastle - £6.5m

Newcastle > Blackburn - £5m

Blackburn > Liverpool - £6m

Liverpool > West Ham - £7.5m

West Ham > Man City - £14m

 

Total - £44m

Good shout, played here once in 2005 and scored. 

 

I remember that well as Alan was a ball boy (aged 11 or 12)  Told him it wasn't a bad goal but he could have done better lol

Craig Bellamy - Celtic (West Ham to Man City £14 million)

Great shout. Totally forgot about him. Absolutely tore us a new one too.

Not seen many of that quality at tcs have we. Barring maybe shinnie, and mckay... Maybe wyness aswell?

Juninho crossed my mind, but only played against us at Parkhead it seems, and only sold for £12m anyway.

Bellamy still wins as James McCarthy only went for £12.5m

 

Everton say £13m, Wigan say £15m, according to BBC.  :shrug02:

Anelka has cost his clubs upwards of £90 million in transfer fees alone.

I can't believe we've all forgotten the time TCS was treated to a virtuoso performance by the most valuable player of all, Gareth Bale.

Barry Ferguson went from Rangers to Blackburn for £7.5 million

 

:shrug02:

 

Your point is??

 

 

My point is what was the point in mentioning Barry Ferguson going from Rangers to Blackburn ?
