While recognized as the first 1-million-pound player, the actual transfer fee for the Trevor Francis was £999,999 -- £1 short of the 1-million mark. Brian Clough wanted to ensure this milestone mark did not go the player's head, although with taxes the total fee exceeded £1.1m. This transfer took place in 1979 not 1971.
