How much did Keane pay for Priskin? 17:08 - Oct 3 with 1328 viewsstewartm

I could just write it all went wrong when Evans took control of Ipswich, but the treatment of Majilton and the horror show that followed (and is now continuing) is all down to Evans!

it was 1.3m or 1.7m. Similar fee for Lee white boots Martin. Imagine if Mick had received those sort of funds to spend...

Didn't Keane take funds from the academy and use them for first team spending? I might be wrong here.

£1.7m


Though he didn't negotiate the fee and said he would never have paid that much if it was down to him.

He spent £1.7 mill.

However, after reading his book he didn't negotiate the fee at all. He was pleased to sign him, and absolutely alarmed it was that - he thought it was around £500k!!

...but he still bought him.

He also got the arse when Clegg wouldn't break the bank to sign Chopra.

He did, however get the arse when Clegg refused to go to £4M+ for Michael Chopra...

It's not just about signing players, it's about using them properly. Priskin had come off a decent season at Watford under Brendan Rogers, where the team played to his strengths & got the ball to him on the ground. I groaned when we signed him because I thought we would lump long balls in his general direction & that's exactly what happened & unsurprisingly he was ineffective. While he wasn't ever worth £1.7m, there's more to it than that.

Priskin was a rich man's Kevin Lisbie. He was signed off the back of one, half-decent season in which he score 12 goals, albeit for a pretty indifferent Watford team. One season in Hungary aside, he'd never broke double figures in season before(or, to my knowledge, since).
Lest we forget, he went out on loan numerous times after Jewell HAD tried playing to his strengths, to little avail. It's not that he wasn't 'used properly', he was crap.

The guy had a purple patch for Watford but you only have to look at his post-Town career to see that he should never have been signed, especially with Rhodes being let go for such a pathetic fee. Just terrible decision making all around.

Hell, even during his Town career. He had a couple of loans AND a manager who DID play him 'ball to feet'. He was still crap.

Wasn't Rhodes sold to finance the Priskin deal?
