Coventry boss Chris Coleman insists he is happy with the backing of the board in the transfer market this summer.
After the sales of Scott Dann and Robbie Simpson, Coleman is on the look-out for reinforcements but developments have been slow.
However, the former Fulham manager is satisfied progress is being made while admitting Birmingham's £4m offer for Dann was too good to turn down.
He told the Evening Telegraph: "The chairman has spoken with some members of Sisu and then I had a good meeting with him and he was very reassuring.
"I am not one to be ringing the chairman up every day asking where is this player or that player, but you want to keep on top of the situation. But it was a good meeting and I was happy coming away from it."
Coleman added: "It is important I don't chuck my toys out of the pram if I can't get what I want when I want.
"I think a lot of people are worried because this time last year we had four or five new players, and maybe we were lucky to get the players in when we did.
"The most important thing for me this week was to hear from the chairman that we are still doing the same things and trying to sign the same players, and that's reassuring because we have got a bit of money in the kitty.
"We didn't want to lose Scott Dann but we got a good deal. I just hope it doesn't happen with any more of our best players but the problem in football is you don't know what's round the corner."
