Who wasn't expecting more than that anyway?
Hindsight is a wonderful thing, and selling him a year ago before the collapse of the transfer market would have made more money.
However, in the current climate (that's today, not any other time in the past) I don't think its realistic to expect that we would get much more than that for a striker unproven at the top level. Its hard to accept because his value has gone down through no fault of anyones - but that's just how the market (and any market) is when buyers have a strong position.
Quite frankly, all this talk from some about "Knight Out" is complete bollocks.
I think with a lot of quality players out of work, we'll be able to strengthen the squad on the proceeds, and I'm sure SC will have been putting things in place before today.
