70 years ago on the 22nd February 1939 Sheffield United bought international ouside left Bobby Reid from Brentford for a record sum paid by a Sheffield club £6,000

Another record was set on March 10th 1939 when United sold centre forward Ephraim Dodds to Blackpool for £10,000 a record for both clubs!

I have sent it to Mr Payne - there must be some at Wednesday & United who get £6,000 a day!
