Franchise sign Agard & Gills sign Jamie O'Hara.
Fair play to Scally he really is pumping the money in to Gillingham this season. Konchesky, Wagstaff, JET, O'Hara.. must be on a fair whack between them.

O'Hara, another one of those players that had fantastic opportunity to excel (Spurs, Wolves maybe). Don't see him being much kop. Would rather have Kasim. |

The fee for MKD record signing Agard is "allegedly" £750k up front with add ons to over £1m. Big fee for a L1 club. |

Its getting silly isn't it, I can understand the Premier teams spunking money around due to the new TV deal, but is anyone at our level making enough money to be spending that on a player? |

That must be close to a record signing in this league, can't think of many other teams that would have that financial clout ever in L1 to pay that sort of a fee, a few £500k or so. Can't remember if Wolves did a couple of years back but they were on Premiership parachute payments still if they did. £1m seems a lot. |

Posh spent £1.5M on Assombalonga.
TBF to them they'd just made a cracking return from Gayle and then they sold him for a lot more.

Only Wigan from that list. Only 7 players have been transfered to a L1 (level) club for £1m or more.  |

Fair enough, I could have sworn Wigan spent over a mil on Kavanagh, likewise Fulham on Hales.

You could be mistaken in thinking Kavanagh signed for Cardiff for £1m but they were in the Championship in July 2001 at the end of their title winning season in L1, Wigan were in the Premiership when he signed for them for £400k in 2004/5. http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/football/teams/c/cardiff_city/4317345.stm |
