It's better to overspend and not derail the season than to not overpay and watch the season collapse.

Well done to Donald for spending more than Griggs value when he could have easily refused .

All guesswork from the media who often get it wrong - better than Lee Camp being unveiled, anything is.
 
Whilst Sunderland fans wait with baited breath to find out if the club have officially added to their forward line, owner Stewart Donald has commented publicly on the deal for Wigan striker Will Grigg via his Twitter account.
