Paid 3/6 million for a midget who wasn't even the right one. All relative but 3.6 million was a lot of money to us back then and we go no sell on. His wages were canny high too. One of a number of "questionable" signings from that era. Alvarez is looking like the worst deal we've ever done but its not an isolated one. We have a poor history and until our transfer business improves in a big way we'll continue to stuggle at best and at worst go backwards.The Milton Nunez debacle was a positive success story compared to the Alvarez fuck up.
We’ve spent around 10 million quid on a player, and engaged in protracted legal battles over a player we’ve technically never “owned” or even wanted, but who would’ve actually been better than the club record signing we brought in the following season to the fill the same position.
