All over the country, football transfer fees seem to be increasing, except....! And the loan fee we got last year shouldn't be counted in a "Look How Much we Got for him"
Polish international is Forest's ninth summer signing

NOTTINGHAM Forest have completed the deal to land Polish star Radoslaw Majewski on a season-long loan.
The highly-rated Polish international trained with the Reds for the first time yesterday.
And an official announcement will be made today, once his transfer from Polonia Warsaw has been rubber-stamped by the FA.
Forest have already agreed a fee – believed to be in the region of £1.5m – to sign the 22-year-old, who is keen to prove himself in England.
Majewski will become the ninth signing of the summer, with the capture of striker Dexter Blackstock set to be confirmed, along with the return of defender Joel Lynch from Brighton.
Forest will pay more than £1m to QPR for Blackstock, while Lynch arrived for £200,000, with midfielder Matt Thornhill moving to the south coast on a six-month loan as part of the deal.
All three players are likely to be involved tonight as manager Billy Davies splits his squad down the middle for two friendly games, at Rotherham and Rushden.
And Blackstock, who played an integral role in helping to keep Forest away from the relegation zone during his loan spell from Loftus Road last season, is already aiming higher as he looks to return to the City Ground.
"The chairman has backed the manager and brought in the players the manager wanted," he said ahead of his move."Now we are looking forward, rather than downwards.
"The reason I want to come here is because I believe we can get promotion this season and, if not, certainly within the four years I have signed to be here.
"It was a great achievement what happened last season, when we survived.
"I was happy with my loan spell, it gave me a taste of things and now I want more."
Blackstock is one of six strikers who will fight it out for a first team place next season.
"If you want to win football matches you have to score goals and, with the six strikers here, there are plenty of goals," he said.
"If you want to get promotion, you need match-winners and we have that here."
