True - Pitcher was £55k, in a season where we didn't spend a penny on anyone else. Got a very good free transfer that year though: Simon Morgan from Fulham. Great signing.
The £300k on Murray needs to be weighed up against the money that came in around the same time: we sold Alex Revell to Southend for £150k, and Dean Hammond to Colchester for £250k, so a small profit made...
...then again we did blow £50k on Jonny "Popstar" Dixon, so it wasn't all sensible...
Would also vote for Peake. Great left peg, but didn't work out for us. Soon went back to Rochdale I think - and on a free. Amazing sum given our league position - although I think some of it was money reinvested from selling Paul McCarthy and Junior McDougald.
That was the season before...
