21/8/2008 08:01 | MR Any reason that Barclays is building up a share of AL? Also is it possible to find out how many groups have taken a position in AL and what their holdings are? Thanks for your help. Just a poor shafted shareholder! | andrewlewis | |

12/8/2008 10:17 | Jenny Are you still there? Look at all the financial groups buying AL shares? Any reason you can think. The deal is still not finalized and hopefully a better bid might come in i.e AVIVA Barclays. Quien Sabe? | andrewlewis | |

07/8/2008 09:50 | Hi, Can anyone advise on the following? After recently reading a very good article on the Santander take over of Alliance & Leicester, it values the bid at £3.35 per share. Why then, is the current bid price of £3.53 being offered? Is this just speculation that a new bidder will come forward or are we best to sell shares at that price, rather than hang on for the takeover to go through at £3.35? Cheers. | jmcm | |
06/8/2008 09:57 | I bailed AL. and got into HBOS ... latter has almost caught up ... the 50p difference .. don't like what the AL. board agreed to but nonetheless any rises are stunted by the peformance of Santander ... IMO... and in this fast moving market the money would have been near dead in the short-term. | keith95 | |
05/8/2008 15:27 | Gordon Brown is considering suspending stamp duty in an emergency measure to kickstart the housing market, it was claimed last night. | k38 | |

01/8/2008 22:56 | The best thing about this deal is that it has provided a floor for al's share price until october at a time when it was heading further south....by october the board will have a better idea of the economic situation and can either neg a better price from santander or walk away - will be v interesting to see what all these new holders have joined the shareholder list for!..... | indomie | |
01/8/2008 08:24 | I think they expect larger Treasury problems in the next six months. So they have "cut and run" into the arms of the first suitor | acamas | |
01/8/2008 08:15 | What chance the interim report. Still in profit! | andrewlewis | |
31/7/2008 21:03 | The offer must be REJECTED!! Recovery is being held back by the bid! | daveram13 | |
31/7/2008 17:03 | k38 Thanks for your input. It seems that 3 more financial institutions have bought up to 12%+ of AL including Barclays. For Barclays that almost makes 9-10% in the last 2 weeks. Interesting to see where all this is going. | andrewlewis | |
31/7/2008 11:13 | You have to remember this is my opinion only ,not advise. NR (is doing very well,but the mess smell)big shareholders try to do thesame,but the government make a big mess,as always. Here they(fsa)force them to sell(a 3days deal),in panic and as always the shareholders loose ones more.Recovery has started,is not far away. So if they don't get higher offer (if this is not a smoke screen)i see no deal here.See HBOS,i expect good news here to. piersyboy2 YES you have to phone them now,so they will send you papers on time.good luck. (i don't know more then others ,but always try to see things and think different.It works for me :) | k38 | |
31/7/2008 07:44 | K38 How do you think the voting will go for the takeover if all these different financial organizations are taking a part of the company. It seems to add up to at least 20%. Which way will they vote; are they trying to force a higher offer and make a profit? What else? | andrewlewis | |
31/7/2008 06:35 | I hold all my shares in a nominee account, how will I get a chance to vote?, do I need to apply for a voting pack? Thanks | piersyboy2 |
