    Sorry, dunno. I don't remember that, and I no longer have the VHS tape the concert was recorded on. Would have been a neat stunt if it happened, though!

    Its a lot more fun then waiting patiently for the white smoke to appear, or not. Don't you agree?

    No I don't mean gazump, I mean gazunder. You know, the opposite of gazump?

    The opposite of gazumping is gazundering, where a buyer decides at the last minute to drop their offer. It means the seller then has to decide whether to accept less or find new buyers but is more common in a depressed property market.3 Oct 2013

    I'm looking forward to next week just to get some clarity.
    Either the arseclowns confirm the sale, or we are stuck with them.
    At least we will all know where we stand, this charade has gone on far too long.
    If they stay its TV games and Ferriby (not Dover away though!!!)
    If they go, then hopefully the new owners scrap the scheme (where theres a will theres a way), and I can return to the KC or whatever it's called nowadays along with some of the old motley crew in exile.
    Interesting times.

    I'm in an optimistic mood (probably misplaced)
    Assuming they do sod off where are the returning hoards going to get seats?
    I was in N3 which I was ok with, but apparently it's fairly well cleansed at the moment with v poor take up. So if I want to be with like minded souls (stand up, swear a bit, drink heavily, sing/shout etc) where would a chap look to buy a plot?

    Don't understand why there has been absolutely no activity in the transfer market by City. Other teams seem to be signing players left right and center. Maybe this has something to do with the potential change in ownership and SB is waiting for clarity on his budget as deemed by the new owners. Hope this is not wishful thinking but I fear it is and the Allams will still be with us for the foreseeable future?

    There obviously isn't going to be any transfer activity until we know who the owner is going to be.

    So Hull City in the same paralysis as the UK is until they both get confirmed leadership?

    Hopefully it'll be sorted one way or the other, very soon. Preferably ending with the Allams ****ing off!

    The worrying thing is, we're already weeks behind our rivals in the transfer market.

    Agreed I hope its done soon.

    Not worried about the transfer market tbh. Last time we "won the transfer window" it turned out a disaster.

    What do you mean weeks behind. It only officially opened on July 1st. The only players that could be signed before then where FATs. The sale of the club needs addressing this week otherwise I will start to worry, especially with **** transfer budget the Allams have reportedly given Bruce.

    Yes cant but help agree. But if the Allams had made up there mind to remain, then they at least would know who the new owners were. So there is some hope based on this that we may see a change in ownership.

    A gazunder used to be a chamber-pot -- a 'po' -- in the good old days. It, you know, goes under the bed.
