Well it certainly isn’t the fans. The new owners knew what they were coming into and gave it the big licks saying we would have an envious transfer budget.

All they said was that we'd have a hefty transfer budget comparable to some lower end Champ sides. We have proven that by holding onto our better players and buying players like Wyke and Baldwin etc

From The Echo:

"We understand Sunderland have now had a couple of bids rejected for the Wigan Athletic striker and will now make a final attempt to bring him to the Stadium of Light.
Jack Ross still wants to add at least one striker to his squad, even if no one leaves this month.
Ross isn't expecting any business to be done before this weekend's trip to Scunthorpe."

Who have we hung on to that other teams have bid for? We lost Asoro and are likely to lose Maja. No one wants the rest.

He said budget, not transfer budget. It was a bit naughty the way Donald phrased it on the first podcast cos he made out as if he was talking about transfers but he later went on to clarify he was talking about overall playing budget. Our current wage bill makes us far and away the biggest spenders ever in this league.

We will have to as it appears we don’t have a pot to piss in. But it’s fine because Stewart Donald tweets everynow and again.

I don't think the owners could be more honest and open without compromising our dealings tbh.

Dunno what people want, the Mags get told fuck all.
