Ferguson: 50%

Charity Shields

Using money as an indicator, only twice did Paisley break transfer records to buy players. Kenny Dalglish was a British record while Graeme Souness was a record between two English clubs.

Ferguson by comparison has broken the British record on many occasions in various categories.
