Must of missed the Notice to appoint- when did that come out? SPD no longer the frontrunner-funny that. Don't be fooled about the noise surrounding the Stafford Group as DSG will soon be joining the party. GLA

Of course JJB's bust, that's why it's going into administration

'JJB is well & truly bust.'

um, no its not.


Manchester united figures are pretty eye watering. A lot of debt for 20mill profit.

Was it the finance director that said the end of the quarter was not an issue for jjb in terms of rents?

There is more to this than meets the eye, SR (as there always is).

You might have to wait a few weeks for those cheap trainers!

[sir rational] 19/9/2012 16:23

No way, Jim IMHO.

This is just a bidding process to sell off any assets JJB might have then use the monies raised to pay off creditors. Who won't get paid in full.

Nowt left for shareholders, JJB is well & truly bust.

With that level of interest MA or other would be suitor may be forced to placate shareholders with an offer of 1-5p

[jimrclark] 19/9/2012 16:17

Looks like it's just you and me this afternoon, pembury.

What are you thinking?

My own thinking is that the number of bidders will mean that there'll be at least a couple of rounds of bids. I don't think that jjb are desperate to get some help in the next few days (perhaps, in the next month or two) so we are in for a few more ups and downs, and twists and turns.

It wouldn't surprise me if the competition got so fierce that there was some value for shareholders. Everyone should remember that jjb are obliged to highlight the risk to holders.

D Telegraph says 8 would be buyers have tabled bids

[jimrclark] 19/9/2012 15:56

Looks like a good operation. Ireland has been doing even worse than the UK over the last few years so they must be good if they are not only surviving but thriving.

We've got an interesting few weeks ahead.

Hold about 70 sports stores in Ireland.

Turnover about 500m (euro)

[jimrclark] 19/9/2012 15:32

Getting close to another buying opportunity?

[swizz] 19/9/2012 13:46

Are the Irish Group listed on any exchange?

Cheers

quidzinn or not quids in,... you had/have to be in it to win it,..init!

[tez123] 19/9/2012 11:22

Still very risky but if a bidding war ensues with fatty et al this will multibag instantly.

not for window cleaners and orphanages.

[hairyback2] 19/9/2012 11:19

It's gradually ticking up again! We could see a spike above 0.4p today.
