Are we sure that it was £1.8 million , Ward left Liverpool for £13 million , 10% being £1.3 million , how was the rest made up? Also believe that it was paid in installments which would have been used up over a longer timescale. Would love to see some facts about this not rumors.

Whether the £1.8million was payed in installments matters little, the bulk was payed within 18 months of the move. It was wasted due to the instance on spending all additional funds on the first team first and strictly the first team only, not on improving hospitality or going a long way towards a training ground, plus many many other things.
The mistakes are glaring and go a long way towards why the football team has been very poor for half the WST's tenure
We all should've know how bad it would get when Fowler was sold to a title challenging rival.
