Thanks fella but I don't have the superpowers that the mods have, I just bung them up if John's a bit late and hope that either him or Craig notice and pin them. Thankfully John's woken up else I'd have had a go at the Championship and League one match threads in the morning. "When I saw the Pistols and The Clash I realised it didn't seem that difficult, they didn't seem like they could play very well either, so the thing was to form a band then work it out. We didn't even know who was going to play what - we passed around all the instruments until we found what we were comfortable with. I wasn't comfortable with any of them so I became the singer."

These "what if" scenarios are very boring but if I had that sort of opportunity, I'd make a serious offer to buy the lease of the SMC at the MKM Stadium in order to run it as an "independent" body, with neither Hull City or Hull FC having any right over decision making there.

The SMC has the final say on the use of the Stadium, that's all, and nothing to do with either club. Unfortunately, with Hull City being the current owners of the SMC lease it's been abused somewhat in their favour. Such as all the toilets being labelled "Tiger" instead of "Men" and "Tigress" instead of "Women". Yes, the Allams were really that pathetic and childish. 1 "When I saw the Pistols and The Clash I realised it didn't seem that difficult, they didn't seem like they could play very well either, so the thing was to form a band then work it out.

It did indeed. But on the 25th March, 2016, it was given it's last ever airing during a Hull Derby. The Rovers fans were in extremely good voice early in the second half and why wouldn't they be? They were 20-0 up after 58 and a half minutes with Hull FC not remotely looking like scoring so the bastardised version of Old Faithful was belted out with great gusto. A little over 20 minutes later and we've never heard it since. 1 "When I saw the Pistols and The Clash I realised it didn't seem that difficult, they didn't seem like they could play very well either, so the thing was to form a band then work it out.

A bottle of water is £2.20 these days and they only take card, needs to be some major changes there. About time you could get a decent curry in the MKM as well I think! 16 hours ago, Old Frightful said: Good thinking, although I'd probably end up buying a new toy first. I'll take the refreshments management job here as well. I know a guy who can supply us with some cheap bromide which would perfectly accompany the watered down Uzbekistani lagar I can get off a fella down the market.
