    So the Goldman Sachs guy is a front man hoping to broker a deal for a still unnamed person/persons

    So we're pretty much non the wiser who's really financially backing that group

    He was MD of a Global Investment division , in fact I read somewhere he bloody invented Global Investment, so don't you tell me he is NOT near the top of the tree,and they get paid megabucks. With bonuses I wouldn't be surprised if he was paid what the Allams are asking for the club per year and I don't know about you but I would have great difficulty in spending that so I would say if he wanted to , and was allowed by the FA rules,he could probably buy 2 Hull Citys at least. He may be only part of a consortium but I would bet he is putting up a large % of the wonga.

    We are either going to become the Hull Giant Squids or Allam is buying the company off himself as a silent offshore buyer to appease the fans but retain ownership.

    Could be the Allams did try very hard to find a good buyer for the club if they turn out to be that.

    It would appear that Peter Grieve is the business side of things, I don't think he's actually the investor. He's very good at what he does by the look of things and he has his fingers in a lot of pies. But he won't try to change the name, so he get's my vote to replace Ehab.

    I once went to an all you can eat restaurant in Florida and scoffed down about 20 of what I thought were 'chicken rings' (it's what they tasted like). My good father informed me they were squid rings and I promptly ralfed all over the car park.

    Which is weird because the taste didn't change, they were still tasty but somehow the thought of it being squid made it inedible.

    But what did you think 'chicken rings' might be, and whatever that was why did you think it would be edible? At least squid start life being round:emoticon-0100-smile

    They just tasted like chicken, so that's what I assumed they were. Of course, everything that is weird tastes like chicken so it wasn't the best frame of mind to head into the unknown with.

    come to think of it I've done it with my daughters and the mrs too.

    I also told the mrs on holidayonce it was just black rice. She ate it and enjoyed it. i then told it was rice flavoured with squid ink <laugh>
