Funny how his figures for selling players are always higher than EVERY media outlet, and his figures for buying players are always lower than EVERY media outlet.
From Wiki...
On 25 May 2007, Bale signed a four-year deal with Tottenham Hotspur with Spurs paying an initial £5 million for Bale, potentially rising to £10 million based on appearances and success.
However, Tottenham paid Southampton an early settlement payment of £2 million in 2008 to reduce the final fee to £7 million and allow the Saints the immediate cash that they desperately needed.

...it appears I might have overestimated what Spurs paid for Bale by about half a million quid.
Oh well.
You paid £6m for him, and re-negotiated the add-ons with a lump sum of £3m, total £9m, still an astounding bit of business for your club.
Why you feel the need to massage figures is beyond me, or is it because everyone knows you lie anyway, so no need to try and hide it?

Still the third best team in London.
