My sense is that there isn't a "cash crunch" there or "bad management". They have and will continue to have some money to spend but it doesn't look like they are prepared to splash out huge amounts of money for single players. They have a tight wage structure in place and club unity is important to them. Lee Dixon gives a decent 3 minute analysis of the situation there and what they are most likely to do - in the link on my previous post.
I'd expect another £5-10 million defender and a midfield player to be signed at some point. But it probably won't be on the level of other Premiership clubs summer signings.
