£7.1 million. I wonder if he thought his pathetic attempt at a clearance would end up making him a millionaire several times over? I’m not envious just think life isn’t fair at times.

The anchor man on Sky Sports News just asked how much Maradona got for Steve Hodge’s shirt. Quite funny.

I think I heard on the radio today it's been held in the football museum in Manchester?

It was recently on display at the National Football Museum in Manchester. I can think of a few million reasons.

Hodge called his autobiography 'The Man With Maradona's Shirt' so he clearly had his eye on the prize even way back.

£7.1 million will cover the shortfall in revenue between Divisions One and Two circa 1987, thanks.

Be interesting to see if there’s any follow up stories about what he plans to do / does with the proceeds. I know it’s easy to say from a distance, but I’d feel bad pocketing that amount of money from the sale without giving a decent chunk of it back to a charity or charities.
