Except you only have to go back a few pages to see it was your fellow fans saying this most recently...

 

 

For a player with a year left, coming off the back of a poor season who's clearly not signing a new deal and can sign a pre contract in a few months, £1M is brilliant money.

We got £750K for Johnny Russell under similar circumstances who, imo, was a better all round player than Shankland.

I'm not disagreeing it's a cracking fee to get for him, I was just pointing out to Granny that it wasn't just Dees doubting the idea of getting that sort of money for him. 

On a side note, I've seen it reported that the £1m includes add-ons so presumably he'll have some targets to hit before Utd get the full figure. Hopefully it's £100k up front with the other £900k only getting paid if he scores 40+ this season.

Aye, probably would have been quoting his comment. Haven't seen anything about add ons, where did you see that reported?

Wouldn't be surprised if there's a sell on percentage and probably appearance fees. My guess would be a basic £1m with add ons upping beyond that to £1.25m.

If not, I'm going to burn Tannadice to the ground*

**Might just burn Dens down instead, that old main stand would go up no bother, its built out of kindling and dowels.

No idea of the original source but I saw this screenshot:

Who is the last player Dundee sold for £1m?

Jack Hendry, maybe...?

I was asking a question.  What’s the answer?

Strictly speaking it wasn't £1m we got for Jack Hendry as it was actually £1.6m at the time, not to mention we've just received another 6 figure sum after Celtic sold him.

Was there a reason for your question Granny?

That's not a bad pub quiz question to be fair.

Dundee have sold 2 players for over a million. Jack Hendry and Rab Douglas.

Just the 9 players for United.

Are you one of those pub quizmasters who has to be told they're wrong by the teams when it becomes apparent they've fucked up the quiz?
