Totally right.

I had Schalke and Fiorentina in my head for Nastasic but couldn't remember which he came from/went to. Then I totally forgot Savic was at Fiorentina.

Liked Nastasic, decent player. Savic was crap, but he's ended up having the better career.
 
Not a swap deal as such but the £100k fee for Kazzy Deyna was largely made up of electronic office equipment such as printers, photocopiers and fax machines, and medical instruments and supplies, some tools and light machinery, with the balance paid in US dollars. The Polish authorities used the latter to send their athletes abroad to train ahead of the 1980 Moscow Olympics
Swales used a sports journalist, John Roberts of theGuardian, to broker the deal.
This was decades before he brought in John Maddock to be his personal axeman and lightning rod when he wanted to sack Peter Reid
