OMERTA - I held stock in RTD a while ago. In fact I have bought into and followed the company's progress from when they were called (can't remember!) and split into Retail Decisions and Universe. Could never quite understand why the stock under performed because they have a good proposition and strong management team. Needless to say I lost money on them but at the current price definitely worth a look.

It would be nicer still with a large gin from the board to back it up!

WOW I've missed a lot since yesterday. Pdmarr I am sure that you are no fool and are fully aware of the postings on any BB. Why therefore do you take it so seriously? As for trying to top each other with I bought this for x and sold at x I dont know of ANYONE that gets it right all of the time. The only perfect person I have ever met in my life was a liar. Tell me if you hold no interest in DTL why you are looking at this BB, is it that you look through the top risers and then look up the relevant BB's?????
ds I am suprised that you fell into his trap.
Lets enjoy the rises and hope for much more to come in the future.
ps I bought a lot of next at 11p many years ago and sold at £7.47p I also bought a bundle of TLMD on Nasdaq at $1.02 and lost the bloody lot.

pdmarr I have never said "dead cert" If iget information i never say a particular day because they can change so quickly due to unforseen circumstances!!...anyway its good to have different opinions ,but i feel it would be better if you simply say "i disagree with what you have posted DS"and give your reasons ,instead of calling people BS....

lets leave it at that EH!

omerta - Yes and Anderson does not make off the cuff remarks so i feel he will be right!!2-3 groups !!

[digital sport] 22/5/2002 18:45

i thought this was an interesting article especially his views on the rapid consolidation and sees 2-3 big groups

Sport Entertainment lines up bid

Acquisitive Sport Entertainment & Media, the sports management group which handles Ian Wright, Matthew le Tissier and 92 other top football players, is poised to make a fresh shares-and-cash takeover, following a 160 per cent interim profits increase to £754,000, writes Robert Tyerman.


Jerome Anderson, boss of SEM (SM.), has been growing the company both organically and by acquisition, confident that the once-fragmented business of managing the interests of sports and media stars is consolidating fast and will soon be dominated by two or three key groups. The Aim-listed group, whose 105 non-soccer clients include Formula 1 driver Eddie Irvine and boxer Lennox Lewis, made £800,000 pre-tax in the year to last June and broker Credit Lyonnais expects the year to next month to produce £2.3 million pre-tax, with £3 million in sight for 2002-03.

This figure could be boosted as a result of the impending Lewis-Mike Tyson world heavyweight title fight in Memphis, Tennessee on 8 June. Observers reckon this could gross SEM anything from £1.5 million to £3 million, depending on viewing figures.

SEM, which typically takes a net 10 per cent on two-year sports-only contracts and up to 20 per cent on commercial contracts, has decided to catch talent while it is young and is making a push into the top youth player market. Arguing that 'sport is now show business', Anderson says he aims to pick more players who, like Wright, are going to be able to make the switch.

SEM takes revenue from contracts into its accounts only as payments are made. It claims it can thus predict a £1 million gross profit contribution from a £3 million contract coming into force from July next year.

SEM, which received bids when private from several groups, trades at 60.5p, 0.5p below its Aim float price.

Sure thing .......he seems to have a finger on the button, a kind of zen but better informed.

[crapcrap] 22/5/2002 17:53

hi anval, had a small punt during ferrum days, followed ever since
that ds is an interesting bloke !

[scorpion 40] 22/5/2002 13:26

The spread seems to be a bit more sensible as well.

[anval] 22/5/2002 12:07

OMERTA>>>>>>thanks and no i did not have that info, it has been noted.

[opthalmist] 22/5/2002 11:58

Where's this one going short term then? Target price?

[pdmarr] 22/5/2002 11:50

Wosser

All I'm advocating is post facts or opinion ie 'IMHO there may/should be an announcement in the next x days'. Not hype and ramp 'it's 99.9% dead cert' then one date passes, then another. Who's BS now?

[digital sport] 22/5/2002 11:47

Sorry about that,i was stupid to get involved.....anyway MM buying a good sign!!

[pdmarr] 22/5/2002 11:45

...theres a clever boy, your'e learning. If you've nothing to say, say nothing. Afterall, for a sports related stock a level playing field shouldn't be unreasonable and who know's some may actually believe your nonesense.
