Its only 2.5million upfront though although that still seems alot to me. Thats the thing I never get, they want to get promoted and then stay there, so why not buy players that you think will also do well in the prem and not waste time and money.

Not denying he's a decent player, just saying £4mill is way over the odds and if Birmingham don't deliver then Bruce will be on his way IMO. Don't think he's a decent signing either in the Premiership so IMO bit of a waste of cash :lol:

As a Cov fan i would have to say im gutted.Hes a good player and i can see him doing well there.I used to see him out and about a fair bit usually in his range rover sport

We almost bought him for a few grand, now he's 'worth' £4million :| We pretty much made him what he is today, 2 loan spells with us boosted his confidence no end.

Never really done a lot apart from last season, we (Burnley) nearly had him on a free too last summer but he opted to stay at Coventry cause he's from there. Mad price, not surprising people are buying foreign!

crazy price when Duff went for 5 mil...

..4 mill for Mcsheffery :! See Bruce clearly isn't anygood at price is right. Think he could be the first Championship manager to go unless Birmingham perform instantly. Splashing some serious money on half decent Championship players, can't see these signings being decent in the Premiership..
