no it isn't - it's what he was worth to Reading

They got the ?500k, not us.

Since when has opinion equalled reality? Just because we thought he was worth ?500k doesn't make him ACTUALLY worth it. Perhaps you'd like to explain exactly how he is worth ?500k to us? Or even was THEN, since I bet we couldn't have found abyone else to buy him for that even if we'd decided to get rid immediately
