It's strange how things turn out when Harrison Mcgahey left for Scunthorpe it looked like he had jumped a sinking ship for better money and better prospects and who could blame him, however it's a funny old game and hindsight is a wonderful thing. I wonder what he's thinking now. |  |

Dale did fantastic to get a decent fee for in reality a bang average defender who played for the 2 worst defences in League 1 and finished the season on the Scunthorpe bench | | | |

A little harsh on the lad to be honest.
Given the end of the Hill tenure and what it entailed you can't really blame him for leaving for potentially better prospects although it always looked at best a sideways pass to me! I think he gave us some great performances in the time he was here if not always the most consistent at times. |  | | |

Maybe the games about opinions, and whilst Jim always has a mistake in him the vast improvement with a strong capable partner at his side is there for all to see. | | | |

It seemed that a lot of potential was lost during Hills final two years. No fear was replaced by lots of it and young players like McGahey and Delaney suffered , Morley was overlooked and we went from a hard working team to one that lost the basics because Hill wanted to play like Barca . The change since BBM has been huge .Smiles are back and the players are doing simple things well rather than complicated stuff badly. |  | | |

Think he would have done well under BBM in a back 3. However we wouldn’t have seen the resurgence of Kgosi... | | | |

Always felt Mcgahey was vastly overrated. I’d go so far as saying if he didn’t have such pace he would be a very poor player. | | | |

How much did we get for him? A fantastic bit of business, whatever it was
My impression is he was moved on to generate funds, rather than itching for a move himself although he no doubt thought he was moving on to better things
Did well for us, once he'd gained some confidence. Looked like he'd lost it again when we beat them during the upturn under BBM

Not sure of the exact amount they are always undisclosed ,paper talk seem to indicate similar to Rafferty 200k which if anywhere near that amount was as you say fantastic business | | | |

I wasnt bothered when he departed. He hasn't exactly improved Scunny. |  | | |

Perhaps some accountant will get an inkling of the sums involved when the club's balance sheet appears.
But transfer fees can be one of the games darker corners. Or the subject of misinformation. (Though it was said to be a free, Soccerbase states an 'undisc.' fee for Dave Perkins' move to Tranmere - he's is 37 next month, but given his part in helping Tranmere to get into the play-offs, Dale perhaps deserved a fee!)
I half-recall that Kenny Jackett announced his signing of Andy Cannon a few days before the January window opened, and in the Pompey paper a £150K fee being mentioned. But Andy, injured since his second appearance, has fared even worse than Harrison MgGahey, who managed 8 starts for Scunny.
Maybe Joe Rafferty has done better than the others. His first Preston appearance wasn't until March, but since then he's regularly featured and presumably - though it's another darker corner - receives an annual income not unadjacent to £300k. | | | |

I have heard a few figures re Harrison as I have a lot of friends that way as lived there. 300 to 400k is what I have heard off all, no idea if that was based on staying up appearances etc.
Andy Cannon was £149,000 and change apparently , that’s from a pe teacher who teaches 1 of the players kids, not certain but I think it has something to do with certain wage set up when players are signed for certain fees.
No idea on Rafferty or the others though and what I say above is just what I have heard. |  |

If true Scunny must have more money than sense | | | |

Him leaving made way for Ebanks Landell to come in and we stayed up. Happy days. |  |

Said at the time of HG’s departure it was good business. He was the best centre half we had when played in a back four, but that was in the worst defence in the division. The deal had to be viewed in that context.
I still think he can do a stoppers job, but can’t see him reaching the Championship.
As for Jim he is better in a three but there is no doubt playing with EEL improved him no end. A solid commanding centre half is the highest priority for the coming window, unless BBM does a total revamp at the back. The league table suggests a radical overhaul may be a decent shout, but a left back plus the above should do it in my dubious opinion. | | | |

He’s probably thinking the higher salary he’s getting at scunthorpe is good..
Said when he went to get money was good business. Never rated him that highly. |  |

I've heard (doesn't mean it's true) that we got around £150k for Cannon and Rafferty and around £200k for McGahey plus a few tiny appearance clauses etc. £500k in one window for us is great business, especially when we signed a player who seems to be just as good as Rafferty already in McLaughlin and a good utility player in Keohane, and obviously already having so many talented centre midfielders. I liked McGahey but as has been correctly said he was the best defender in a team that couldn't defend, there are plenty of players within our reach who are better |  | | |

10% of 500k isn't a bad little number either...  | | | |
