Default Bid of over one million for a conference player?

Playing as Cambridge city in nationwide conference. Got an offer of a bit over one million pounds for my star player. It was from a big french club as far as i remember. The player also is french.
Question: Can this in any circumstances happen in real life? I remember this was normal in CM4, but it was unrealistic in many ways anyway. Just seems unbellievable.
What is the biggest money ever paid for a conference player? in real life that is

Yes, the transfer bids for lower league players seems unrealistic in FM 2006. Back when I was in the Scottish Second Division, I received £800k for my right winger & £1.5M for my striker.

Some LLaMas have decided to turn down such offers, deeming them unrealistic. Me? I take 'em, considering the exorbitant prices I've had to pay for players. Most recently, a Falkirk defender valued at £55k cost me £375k, and Ross County rejected my £1M offer for a promising Ross County midfielder valued at £120k.

It is unrealistic. Taking advantage of it is taking advantage of a less than impressive transfer AI

Hmmmm...

Being more of the 'drunk management school' than the "LlaMa-school" (allthought I follow a lot of the rules), I can only say it mostly works the other way around for me:

Splashing ridiculous amounts of money on sh*te players due to sh*te scout-reports - meanwhile thinking with my drunken head I just bought the next star...

Hope there will be an improvement to this matter on the next FM. As well as some other minor things..

I think it's the SPAG (as they used to call it at school) that gave it away.

Eh, it doesn't feel like I'm taking advantage of anything. Transfer fees are just way to high, both for players bought & sold. There's too much money in the game for everyone it seems, but it still seems "fair."

At least in my save. /shrug
