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

I very much doubt that even SB knows anywhere near the real truth of our financial state.
I guess the 」150 grand turning up in his bank account every month lessens the frustration somewhat.

There are some players who haven't set foot on the pitch for months on double that.
And

You can't blame Bruce for the financial position of the club, or being paid his agreed salary. There are plenty of companies badly run their employees still get paid. The financial problem is not Bruce's fault.

Depends on how much pressure Bruce was putting on the Club last summer to keep on spending money. We don't know why we have spent a lot of money on transfers and wages since Bruce has been here.

If Bruce is prepared to carry on managing with no money and no new players then he can only be waiting for pay-off or hoping tony is going to sell. not a hope this side can get promoted as it currently stands

If gross is 3 m and he pays 40% deductions then divide the balance by 12.

Assuming he's on PAYE and pays NI etc on a salary of 」3m his take home each month would be 」133,397.99
