Shrug, not inspiring but within our means. If you want to read into it (and I do) then I would say it indicates business at usual for the club and no change in our financial trajectory is imminent.

Although signing a player for £9m and making offers in the same region for others may suggest otherwise. Although I guess the signing of a third choice keeper who will probably never play a first team game is a better indicator of our transfer policy.

More than capable backup. Rather have him than somebody earning 60k p/w on the bench (no offence Shay)

Didn't our GK coach come from Norwich too?  If so it probably is case of all parties knowing and trusting each other, but with £50k of wages left over.
Sound move in my book.

I'd image that we're looking to loan Steer out again this season and therefore the thinking behind Bunn is to have an experienced deputy on hand, in much the same way that Andy Marshall was for years.

So if the first choice keeper's injured, he'll have to earn his bread?

I guess so. I've heard he's pretty hot on crosses.

I was going to say signing a third choice goalkeeper is hardly an indication of our ultimate strategy. Liverpool sign Adam Bogdan, but I wouldn't define their transfers on that basis.

He's got every chance of playing, as the currant No.1 is off to Stoke.
