Giant crossword on Sat 22nd July. Question 10 down. Clue: Grumble (slang) . Cryptic: complain about new offer.

I have ?i?d Do these letters match with your crossers ?

Hi Jazzy. How are you these days. Me! Not doing much in Crossie field but still peek in here. Getting married again in September, so quite busy.
That clue! Did you solve it. I have an answer. John x

Hello Jolan
I am fine, but very busy with complicated paperwork, so my head is too full to be doing many crosswords ! Not long to go now before your wedding. I do wish you both all the very best x
No, I do not have an answer . Oh dear !

I had thought of bind

Yes, to bind is to grumble
n(new) inside bid (offer)

Yes Jazzy. BI(N)D an old slang word for "complain". I know the wording of the clue is acceptable but don't like it personally. i.e offer is about new.
PS bind is under complain in Chambers Thes
Thanks for wishes. xx

The clue is definitely not up to your standard, John :)
