Sounds like Cosgrove had just given us “clowns” (his exact words) an open invitation to join the show.

Doesn’t like criticism, Cosgrove. What was the Billy Dodds transfer fee again, mate? Silly sod still thinks the relegated Saintees got £800k for him

“Petty and ill informed” indeed

Correct. Saintees paid Dundee £400k for Dodds.  6 months later, both teams got relegated and yet he believes the Saintees doubled their money when Dodds moved to Aberdeen?


A trope indeed….

TBF even your own supporters back that claim up.

And it was the fee reported at the time with the manager confirming it.

So what was the fee Aberdeen paid if it wasn't £800k?

Ask Willie Miller. He’s said on countless occasions on Sportsound that although the fee was reported as £800k, it was even less than the £400k that the Saintees paid for him. 

I wind Cosgrove up about on Twitter regularly. He always bites. And yet he must know the fee was never as reported

Any chance of going over that again, just so I can get the details straight?

Someone did in the interview I posted, where he himself says, on the day of the signing, that it was a "record fee".

Considering it came after the £650k fee you paid for Gillhaus I'd say its safe to say its not "below £400k".
