What did dundee sell kane hemmings, greg stewart and scott bain for again?

What's the relevance? Hemmings had a release clause, the other two were in the final year of their deals.

Turnbull has another year. We sold Hendry for 1.5million - He isn't anywhere near half the talent Turnbull is and he is 5 year older.

So, point still stands, fucking mugs.

Sky also now reporting it as £3m up front and a maximum of £250k add ons.

If you've not got a massive sell on clause that's one of the worst player sales I can remember. Stuart Armstrong probably the best Scottish sale Celtic have achieved at £7m, so even a sell on clause might be dreadful, and Celtic have a habit of keeping Scots for the majority of their career, so you could be waiting five years to get 20% of £6m.

A full million less than they paid for Scott Brown FFS.

Rumour is that when he signed his new contract he had a release clause as well, so Motherwell appear to have been in the same boat as Hemmings

I assume the Celtic fans who were writing Turnbull off after Celtic's his was rejected are now lavishing him with praise.
They've got a good player and Motherwell have got good money, so both of them have done well. I think Turnbull's made a mistake though.

Haha.

Depends on what the player wants. He made all the right noises about staying but he might be desperate to join celtic. £3m is a good return. Well fans probs gutted he has not gone to an english team due to the add on element

Then there will be no add ons.  Celtic are not meeting a release clause and adding extras.

Calm down you utter weapon.

Celtic needed to make a statement signing. They couldn't miss out on Turnbull after McGinn, and the pressure on Lawell is huge after the OF defeat and hiring Lennon.

Dundee, who sold Kamara for £50k, managed to squeeze £1.5m out a panicked Celtic for Hendry. 

Motherwell have missed a huge chance here, absolutely shat themselves at the first hurdle.

Who was the last non-Old Firm player to be sold for £3m+?

Who was the last non-Old Firm CM to score 15 league goals?

You can butter it up anyway you want with deflection, but you have to be aware you've got nowhere near his value considering he's not changing league.
