I hear that Simpson is off to the sun for Easter. No doubt he can lie on the beach, and ponder where it all went wrong.

well atleast things are moving on the railways fiasco ... so you never know, something might hapedn at MFW.
but yes frankly, I dont see any money at all returned to private shareholders.

[crazy russian] 03/2/2006 09:17

basically NO

Mayflower is on the list of 'neg value shares' on the inland rev pages

I doubt they would be accepting it as a 'total loss' for CGT purposes if there was any chance of the crooks getting sorted and retribution obtained

the old school looks after its own dont you know!

[cubabuckley] 02/2/2006 19:37

is there any chance at anytime of getting something for the shareholders

[soysoy] 30/1/2006 11:43

No just still waiting for tribunal etc,I am not sure what your qestion was on the 19 Jan

[nipper33] 30/1/2006 07:43

Anyone have any idea as to whats happening? Its gone awfully quiet.

[nipper33] 21/1/2006 09:23

Does anyone know about Messrs S;D;F, previous business background,if so then would Mr S encourage you to invest your life savings in Mayflower.

[soysoy] 20/1/2006 09:23

There was chance of management buy out and also
I understand it that there was an individual who built up a business of some sort I don't quite know what it was in, sold out, I've heard figures ranging from about 40 to 60 million quid that he made out of selling his business so he's obviously a wealthy individual but why would you invest maybe a third of your net worth in one company just before xmass he but about 20 million into Mayflower some one called JOHN HXXXVY
I have been told many times Simpson would engourage many individual to put there life savings into Maylower

I still can't understand why the price of the shares went up in the December,
before they went bust. It almost seems as if it was being manipulated. Was it?

[crazy russian] 11/1/2006 10:01

I see another bet being suggested!

[soysoy] 10/1/2006 23:32

nipper a very good chance

[nipper33] 10/1/2006 18:47

What chance of a "term inside"for those involved.Or is this not up for discussion?

[emptyend] 10/1/2006 12:37

As it happened, I also held BGY too.....on the basis that nuclear was a crucial plank of energy policy. Right on the long-term view but in the meantime the shares went up the swannee as the Government blew with the wind on the issue.

My main investments thoughout recent years have been in oil companies where I have met or talked with all the key management players and, in most cases, in companies where the management's equity stake is high.....so that they suffer along with shareholders in the event they screw up.

Sadly I had met none of the BGY management [might have been different if I had!]....and I'd only met someone just below board level at MFW [who had underwhelmed]......so....lesson learned [even though it does indeed restrict the investment universe!]

thanks for bet details
if i were more certain of NOT being misunderstood I would also like a 'piece of the action!!'

at best we are likely to win a confirmation that there was malpractice
I see no way we will win/receive any repayment from those said to be guilty
would love it be otherwise
but having been one or two others that have been looked at by FSA
with entirely predictable end results!
will not hold breath

emptyend.
..your last paragraph............. if you (and you should) include government complicity eg British Energy
then you not leaving much scope for investment!
