    Bowyer said he drove out to meet a player the other day and it was made possible by Southall. Possibly after his coffee with Peterborough owner?

    When was the last time we signed an experienced player from the 1st team of a club in the same divison as us, for a fee?

    There are probably loads I have forgotten but I can only think of a couple in Powell's team Wiggins and BWP.  Before that it may have been Eddie Youds!

    Even in the premier league we mainly bought players from the football league, abroad or players unwanted by bigger clubs.  I don't expect that to change any time soon. 
    Chris Powell from Derby for £825k in 1998
    Carl Tiler from Everton for £750k in 1998.
    Eddie Youds from Bradford for £500k in 1998. Can't find exact details on his transfer date or fee so may have been from a division below or above. Did we sign him before or after promotion?
    Neal Redfearn from Bradford (just relegated as we were promoted) for £1m in 1998.

    Graham Stuart from Sheffield United for £1.5m in 1999. Not sure on the fee here.
    Andy Todd from Bolton for £1.3m in 1999. Not sure on the fee here.

    Claus Jensen for£4m from Bolton in 2000. We had just been promoted from First Division to Premier Division, they finished 6th and were not promoted.

    Luke Young from Spurs for £4m in 2001.
    Chris Perry from Spurs for £100k in 2003 - great deal that.
    Jerome Thomas from Arsenal for £100k in 2004.
    Franny Jeffers from Arsenal for £2.6M in 2004.
    Danny Murphy from Liverpool for £2.5M in 2004.
    Darren Ambrose from Newcastle for £1.5m in 2005.
    Marcus Bent from Everton for £2.3m in 2006.
    Andy Reid from Spurs for £3m in 2006.
    Amdy Faye from Newcastle for ~£2M in 2006 - can't find a solid number on this one.
    Djimi Traoré from Liverpool for £2m in 2006.
    Ben Thatcher from Manchester City for between £500k and £750k.

    Paddy McCarthy from Leicester for £650k in 2007.
    Andy Gray from Burnley for £1.5m in 2008.

    Paul Benson from Dagenham and Redbridge for an undisclosed fee, likely around £200k in 2010, lik.
    Pawel Abbott from Oldham Athletic for £20k in 2010.
    Dale Stephens from Oldham Athetic for £350k in 2011.

    David Button from Spurs (division above) for £500k in 2012.
    El Hadji Ba from Sunderland (division above) for anundisclosed fee, likely around £400k in 2015.

    Nicky Ajose from Swindon for £800k in 2016.

    That's a lot more than I imagined, good work. Redfearn came from Barnsley though, not Bradford.

    Your numbers are pretty much bang on:  Only adjustments are:

    Todd - £750k
    Stuart - £1m
    Benson - £250k

    Thatcher was £500k. Jeffers fee never reached £2.6m.

    Marcus Bent.  Him and Gray not exactly a great ad for Jan buys

    Thatcher was a January signing. Pretty sure Marcus Bent was as well.

    It excludes transfers from lower leagues obviously and also anyone from outside England. I'm surprised at how many were made in the later Premier League years and how it slows post relegation and has basically stopped in the Roland years.
  • Ben Thatcher? Did we really sign him? If so I’d completely forgotten that.

    Maddison? That would be great, if true.
  • 800k on Ajose. How the hell did Roland sanction that one?

    Chris Powell from Derby for £825k in 1998

    Wasn't in the team because of the formation Jim Smith was playing. 

    Carl Tiler from Everton for £750k in 1998.

    Wasn't in their first tea 

    Eddie Youds from Bradford for £500k in 1998. Can't find exact details on his transfer date or fee so may have been from a division below or above. Did we sign him before or after promotion?

    We signed him in the same divison. I already said him. 

    Neal Redfearn from Bradford (just relegated as we were promoted) for £1m in 1998.

    We signed him from Barnsley, sold him to Bradford, we crossed over. 

    Graham Stuart from Sheffield United for £1.5m in 1999. Not sure on the fee here.

    We were in the prem, they weren't. 

    Andy Todd from Bolton for £1.3m in 1999. Not sure on the fee here.

    Wasn't playing for Bolton because he clumped Phil Brown. 

    Claus Jensen for£4m from Bolton in 2000. We had just been promoted from First Division to Premier Division, they finished 6th and were not promoted.

    So not in the same divison. 

    Luke Young from Spurs for £4m in 2001.

    Wasn't playing, was behind Stephen Carr. 

    Chris Perry from Spurs for £100k in 2003 - great deal that.

    Wasn't playing for Spurs. Best £ for £ deal ever. 

    Jerome Thomas from Arsenal for £100k in 2004.

    Hardly a first team player. 

    Franny Jeffers from Arsenal for £2.6M in 2004.

    See above 

    Danny Murphy from Liverpool for £2.5M in 2004.

    See above

    Darren Ambrose from Newcastle for £1.5m in 2005.

    See above

    Marcus Bent from Everton for £2.3m in 2006.

    Maybe

    Andy Reid from Spurs for £3m in 2006.

    Again wasn't playing 

    Amdy Faye from Newcastle for ~£2M in 2006 - can't find a solid number on this one.

    Actually did play quite a lot so that's a maybe. 

    Djimi Traoré from Liverpool for £2m in 2006.

    Yup

    Ben Thatcher from Manchester City for between £500k and £750k.

    Yeap

    Paddy McCarthy from Leicester for £650k in 2007.

    Were we in the same divison, I honestly can't remember. 

    Andy Gray from Burnley for £1.5m in 2008.

    See above. 

    Paul Benson from Dagenham and Redbridge for an undisclosed fee, likely around £200k in 2010, lik.
    Pawel Abbott from Oldham Athletic for £20k in 2010.
    Dale Stephens from Oldham Athetic for £350k in 2011.

    If we were in the same divison fair enough. 

    David Button from Spurs (division above) for £500k in 2012.
    El Hadji Ba from Sunderland (division above) for anundisclosed fee, likely around £400k in 2015.

    That's really wasn't the question was it. 

    Nicky Ajose from Swindon for £800k in 2016.
    Yup

    So 26 players in about 30 years, at least half don't answer the question.  My point being we don't often do it and doing it is a massive statement of intent. 

    Oh I forgot about Keith Jones. 
  • 800k on Ajose. How the hell did Roland sanction that one? 
    Driesen probably

  • Got a feeling we're in for Maddison 
  • Didn't Arsene Wenger pay £11 million for him ?
  • Think thats why he suddenly stopped playing

    Soccerbase says he played 24-games for us wonder if we'd have paid more had he played 25-games

    You said first team, not first 11. Theres a difference, and your responses are arbitrary. Its also only going back to 1998, 22 (really 21.5) years, not 30.
    The only one of the players I named who couldn't be considered first team was Thomas who was basically an U23 or equivalent at the time.
    Anyway this was every player we signed from the same division (or higher) for a fee since we were first promoted to the Premier League in 1998.

  • Is this a transfer rumours thread or transfer history?
