Grylls Posted May 17, 2023 Share Posted May 17, 2023 As per the title, I’m intrigued to know if anyone knows the cumulative combined total of every Oldham signing ever? Or even a vague guess? I’m not after an ‘adjusted for inflation figure’. Ian Olney is still the dearest and he’s peanuts in the grander scheme of things. I’d wager that both Manchester City and Real Madrid have a player on their bench tonight that cost more than every player in our history combined?

GlossopLatic Posted May 17, 2023 Share Posted May 17, 2023 Abit strange to think we spent £2million in the summer of 92. That's never been beaten since in a summer. The summer of 2002 we spent between 4-500k on Chris Killen Clint Hill and Josh Low we certainly haven't spent as much on fees in a summer since then. I reckon if you add up all the transfer fees paid by OAFC in my supporting life (so since 1990) I think it would be under £10million. Which is 6 months of Kevin De Bruyne's wages.

Loved him, pace to burn. J-Low's son, also J-Low, plays for Bristol City. How is that even possible??
