Well it's a solid set off results and the last quarter has continued to strengthen.The future is looking good with all the new tie ins with some heavy names and marketing with them.As much as I don't like their autocentre business it has now shown 10 quarters of consecutive growth and still gaining momentum now.As I've stated the new purchases are long term enablers for HFD to grow into the mainstream and attack competition.Bikes continue to improve and car parts and the auto accessories and departments seem to appear to be growing and paying for themselves.I see a a solid foundation beneath them and I applaud Jill's strategy ......let's keep this up!!

Only thing I know for sure is they are announcing something new, what it is I can't say I'm afraid

How long can they keep fooling people with their very high prices?

Nor long I think, the interweb is killing them.

Interesting to see Jill has capitulated her authority and wisely purchased the appropriate competition and looking at the fundamentals, may I say at a rather jolly good price below long term NAV.I feel also IMO that the Wiggins deal will open them up to very 'high end lucrative junior market' and what parent wouldn't want them to buy into the dream of dreaming?The ex CEO made a mistake IMO when he announced that the car parts and auto acc's etc, etc were dying and bikes would be the future......Looking back he didn't really have a clue about the auto business and hinged the virtue of future share price improvement, on the whim that cycles would vastly improve.He has left the company with a lot of capital commitments IMO and did not follow through or divulge how the auto centre side of the business would differentiate its own identity in the future.I'm awakened that Jill has heightened the awareness for immediate improvements and cost cutting that she was unfairly landed with and has so far, operated like a focussed CEO and her current commitment as far as I can see can not be faltered.I still not convinced on the auto centre business, and IMO that should be sold now at the top dollar we can get for it, I may be wrong but that's just my viewpoint.I also can not see a great visionary improvement whilst we still have the former retail director from Matt Davis's era, Rob Swyer still with a hand on the tiller.IMO new blood is needed in that arena and I'm sure IMO that Jill will also be aware that old dogs can't learn new tricks, sometimes they can...but the future of Halfords needs more than sometimes.If a good summer UK weather pattern holds and the Tour de France and Olympics go well along with Jill's moving up a gear or maybe two I see this well above the £5 plus mark within the next 3-4 months.Carry on Jill.....I like it!

Payroll. New minimum wage?I suppose the uniqueness of HFD is how they generate additional sales in stores. £6.70 is the new minimum wage and I hear and that HFD have adopted within its company without restricting and rehashing staffing levels as many other retailers have.If you think about it for a moment HFD are at an advantage, you have say a member of staff working his say 4/6 hour shift and he is on £6.70 an hour, they literally pay for themselves due to the output they produce.Let's say Johnny works 4 hours and in that time fits 8 bulbs at £7 that's £56. Johnny get paid £26.80 the rest is profit.So HFD can literally have a pay them as they earn work force.If Johnny fits a stereo into a vehicle of a dashboard camera they charge £30 if Johnny fits two of these in 4 hours again Johnny pays for his own wage and delivers profit regularly for the company.They also fit blades, batteries, cycle repair £ per job and selling a bike care plan for £30 for a years free maintain economic is again all instant profit that effectively pays the staffs wages.Now take aside the Auto Centre business for a moment that is truly unique that no other retailer can do that to the extent HFD can.This is the area I feel most interested in and this is the area that sets them apart from other retailers.In this coming global recessionary environment only the strongest will survive.There is only one Halfords for that reason.

I have had a wee glance at today's results and feel that they stemmed the decline of the previous quarter.Encouraging growth from the auto centre business and car parts continues to grow its core business.If they can just readdress that balance within the cycling business...Tour de France and Olympics are coming they may just get back on the right trajectory.In this global recessionary climate they will be braced to do well as more people will hold on to their cars for longer and require serving and at the lower end of the spectrum more people will want to service their own cars too.If they can turn the cycling performance around we may see this trading back within the £5 range sooner than we think.Recovery seems to be underway.

Well done and well said Kendon, I understand the small profit was generated by cutting 1000 managements' bonuses. So that's a one off and my guess above was near as damn right. Sub 3 quid this year. AVOID as they say.

Well my short is on for tomorrow.I'm expecting a stall or negative growth, so I'm hoping for a 30'point drop with a stop out above 5 points.Expecting the ftse to bounce upwards tomorrow, but just a bit then onwards to 4,800 points within the next six months.Good luck all!
