I have a hunch on Lineker. I know he went to Barca for close to a world record at the time.

Not sure what he came back for though.

Title: Re: Football Quiz question
Post by: The Baron on February 02, 2006, 02:52:44 PM
He went to Barca for 5. (After that idiot Venables sold Maradona to fund buying him!)

Like I said not sure whether his return fee was larger or smaller.

Crouch.

We bought him for £2m but then loaned him out to rangers for free (unfortunately though i think he is now back with us as i dont think the deal was til the end of the season)

Title: Re: Football Quiz question
Post by: NoflopsHomer on February 03, 2006, 12:49:56 AM
I'm pretty sure Lee Hughes cost £5million for Coventry and then was sold back to WBA for £5,000,001. That's before he ended up in the clink anyway.


Title: Re: Football Quiz question
Post by: Newportlad on February 03, 2006, 01:30:58 AM
I remember that as well


Title: Re: Football Quiz question
Post by: BlueWolf on February 03, 2006, 01:47:26 AM
actually lee hughes LEFT Albion for £5,000,001 after a clause in his contract allowed him to discuss terms with any club offering over £5

went back for a lot less i remember
