Right guys another take over thread.so this dark knight guy keeps popping up anyone no how reliable he is? Also snozzer seems to be on the money? But my question is, is the takeover really back on? Also do we assume its hoff? Or someone else? If annyone can shed any light wihtout compromising anything please do.

Sounds like Brinner pretty much knows what I know. Be cautious, because this is CCFC, but there's reason again to be a bit more optimistic. Keep everything crossed people.

snozzer, everything i can cross is now crossed,
I hope all ends well but you never know with the skyblues.I just hope they give Thorny a chance to prove he can do it, when he's got some money to do it with.

I heard some strong rumours Saturday from what i can only describe as a very reliable source, who i think everybody would know as they are extremely well connected to the club. (Que the sauce jokes) :claping hands:

Anyway somebody order #43?

they said not to say too much, leave it to them and wait for the news which wont be too long in coming.

they also said keep up the good work re sisu out tshirts etc even chucked me a few xtra quid to get a few more printed.

i can actually see a chink of light at the end of this long tunnel! but like snozzer said, this is ccfc and they have the sisu cunts to deal with so until its a done deal im not gonna get too excited.

I'm sure they have, but a) it's not a done deal and b) I think lessons have been learned. Best just leaving them to get on with it.

I always worry about light at the end of the tunnel. With Coventry City it's usually a train coming the other way!

Quick recipe if anyone's interested:


Batter-covered bananas are deep-fried and coated in a syrupy glaze For richer flavor, deep-fry the bananas a second time at 325 degrees F. before dipping in the sugar syrup. This recipe can also be used to make candied apples - use 4 medium apples.

Prep Time: 10 minutes

Cook Time: 20 minutes

Total Time: 30 minutes

Ingredients:

5 bananas, firm and not overripe
4 cups oil for deep-frying, or as needed
1 egg, lightly beaten
3/4 cup water
1 cup all-purpose flour
2 tablespoons oil
1 1/2 cups granulated sugar
3 – 6 tablespoons white sesame seeds, according to taste*
Preparation:

Preparing and Deep-frying the bananas:
1. Cut the bananas into 1 1/2 inch lengths (about 5 pieces per banana).
2. Combine the egg and the water, and then stir into the flour to make a batter.
3. Heat the oil for deep-frying to 365 degrees Fahrenheit. Use a fork to dip each banana slice into the batter, roll it around and coat it with the batter. (If needed, push the banana off the fork with your finger, then use the fork to push the banana around in the batter to recoat it. Respear it with the fork).
4. Carefully add a few slices of battered banana into the hot oil. Deep-fry, until they are golden brown and the batter is crispy (about 3 minutes). Remove the banana slices with a slotted spoon and drain on paper towels.

Caramelizing the bananas:
Note: Since the caramelized sugar starts hardening and becomes difficult to work with quite quickly, it’s easiest to caramelize half the bananas at a time:
1. Fill 2 bowls with ice cold water and several ice cubes, and place in the freezer while preparing the sugar syrup.
2. Heat 1 tablespoon oil on low-medium heat, then add 3/4 cup sugar, stirring constantly until it turns a golden brown (about 5 minutes). Be careful not to burn the sugar. Remove the wok from the heat and stir in half the sesame seeds. Set out the ice bath.
3. Working quickly, use a fork to place a banana slice in the sugar syrup mixture and turn to coat it in the syrup. Place the banana in the ice water for several seconds, until the sugar coating has hardened. Place the banana on a sheet of wax paper. Continue with the remainder of the banana slices. If the syrup starts to cool and harden, heat again on low heat, stirring constantly, until it is liquid.
4. Caramelize the second half of the bananas, repeating steps 2 and 3 and using the second ice bath.
*If you like, feel free to use black sesame seeds, which are thought to help prevent hair from graying.

Quality stuff, mate. Love the bit about the t-shirts

I'm obviously going to have to spend more time in the casino. A few of us were planning to meet up there for a few beers before the Burnley game, so we'll be keeping 'em peeled!
