we're not buying anyone though, are we?

The club are waiting for the green light from Dr. X according to Matt Maher in the Express and Star.

I think there is a very good chance at some point we will buy a player again.

I’d be surprised if it’s anytime soon.

Apparently, SB has already been given an idea of what he can and cannot  do in the transfer market - and was described as being "pleasantly surprised"

Given the general opinion of SB transfer policy round here, I suspect there are some worried posters around

His son mercifully has signed a new contract with Wigan so that is at least one potential disaster averted.

has Bruce actually said he's pleasantly surprised by his transfer budget? Which would  also confirm he's staying?

We may not be able to buy the club but it would keep me entertained if as supporters we could buy players. Forty thousand shares at Five hundred a share would get twenty million, stipulation would be that we choose the players by poll numbers and if the players are sold on any profit over and above the purchase price would be returned to the shareholders. Not going to happen but the arguments on this site would be the best entertainment.

If we're that skint, we'd have let Alan Hutton go.  You do tend to believe everything you read in the papers.

And you are a gigantically puffed up pompous  twit. If you had bothered to read what I posted, you could see I was merely passing information on - hence the prefix 'According'. In no way was I expressing belief or disbelief Your hubris knows no bounds.
