Coprpbull.

I think your a bit agreived having bought in at the higher end,

Am I correct in sayin so?

For the ones who bought in at the 4.20s its a fair price.

Ofcourse any other bidders will see this bounce up with me
bobbin around in the background.

[feelinlucky] 26/7/2004 12:30

Drops should be taken to pile in again.

Its a day traders stock delight!!! lol

Up and down like a bungee jump/.

Hold on steady you may see me bouncin in the background lol..

[corpbull] 26/7/2004 12:30

It wont hold unless another bidder is in the frame. IMO!!
Price is too cheap and at the end of the day, if shareholders are sane, they will not agree to the bid offer. If bid rejected, it will be back to under 5.00
Or unless Citi or someone else join in the bid.

Coming back nicely. Not that it matters too much at this stage. I'm fed up of these so will take my dividends and then sell the new shares at no cost.

nice buying opp at 540p hope you all topped up!

[kaibutsu] 26/7/2004 12:04

ticking up. Presumably some clarity on where santander is trading

[markth] 26/7/2004 12:03

As expected, Santander opens at 7.8 Euros, down 3.1% on the day.

The arbs are going to get it in the a$$ now if they sold Abbey short.

Anyone know the dividend situation for European shares held in an ISA?
Are the divis paid gross or do they come net of foreign tax?
If net are there any arrangements for the tax paid to be reclaimed?
If so does Gordon come along for his bite?

Im out, good luck to all

This is a rubbish option.
Who wants worthless Spanish paper anyway? The board should never have recommended this, unless they are hopeful a UK or US bank comes in to bid more realistically. Obvioulsy had no faith at all in their own restructuring plans if they were willing to sell this cheaply.

[fouroaks] 26/7/2004 11:50

L2 strengthening a bit. Santander back on line shortly (allegedly).

Dealers in Madrid expect SCH shares to fall sharply when trading resumes
at 11.45 GMT.

[timc] 26/7/2004 11:48

Just an awful deal, plain rubbish.One for one share swap-just wait to tell you what hedge funds and traders think when Santander reopens at 1.00.
5.25p here we come.As for one director jumping ship to British Land, I find that unethical to shareholders-They have basically sold it on the cheap, taken their profits from options and left shareholders high and dry.

[canford cliffs] 26/7/2004 11:45

4 oak - it's in free fall now - makes you want to cuss.....................

[the knowing] 26/7/2004 11:44

Get some HBOS as thet will be the next target IMO

[fouroaks] 26/7/2004 11:44

dvda - is your 'fair price' based on a £144m half year loss, or £350m half year prifit?

Canford - watch the language please.
