Just wait until the Yanks get wind of a US listing

Now that's a line to get into the Media.

Blur operates the world’s largest online marketplace for business services and is working with its extensive network of service providers to offer a range of packages to attract commercial sponsors

As an aside comment: interesting to see the Welsh trying to get into the Mkt. that is powering Tourism in Yorks.
I would have thought they could have raised the cash with grants !
Still good idea.

It will be the first times Wales has fielded a professional team in international cycling and should prompt greater participation in cycling and more inward investment into Wales



The US$17mln project kicked off in January on blur's (LON:BLUR) online platform was to raise funds for a new Welsh cycling team, it was revealed today.

The team - 'We are Wales' Pro Cycling' - aims to field a team to compete in races in the 2016 season with the hope of qualifying for prestigious events like the Tour de France within four years.

It will be the first time Wales has fielded a professional team in international cycling and should prompt greater participation in cycling and more inward investment into Wales.

Eifion Weinzweig, co-founder of Weinzweig-Dejan Cycling, who is leading the 'We are Wales' team, said: "We have been working on this initiative for three years, but it's only since engaging with the sponsorship experts at blur that our dream has become a reality

Incredible advertising for both Wales cycling and blur.

Another coup for Letts and his team.No doubt we will be seeing the blur name on the team kit at some stage.

Cycling reaches a global audience.

That's the kind of RNS that runs & runs in the media.

[j777j] 02/3/2015 09:09

The possibilities are endless hence the need for US listing to realise true value.

blur helps put new national cycling team on the road

Further to the RNS announcement on the 15(th) Jan 2015 reporting that blur Group, which operates the world's largest online marketplace for business services, had kicked off a four year $17m project to raise funds to launch a new cycling team onto the international circuit, blur is pleased to report the team is the new national cycling team for Wales.

It is the first time Wales has fielded a professional team in international cycling and builds on the success of Welsh cycling stars including Team Sky's Geraint Thomas and Luke Rowe and the Olympic gold medallist and women's road race world champion Nicole Cooke.

The new team, 'We are Wales' Pro Cycling, aims to field a team to compete in races in the 2016 season with the hope of qualifying for the prestigious events like the Tour de France within four years. The team will also act as a catalyst for encouraging greater participation in cycling and more inward investment into Wales.

Eifion Weinzweig, co-founder of Weinzweig-Dejan Cycling, who is leading the 'We are Wales' team, said: "We have been working on this initiative for three years, but it's only since engaging with the sponsorship experts at blur that our dream has become a reality."

"We know that the Welsh people are very passionate about rugby and football. We hope that by providing them with this unique opportunity to get behind a new team in a rapidly expanding market, it will make everybody feel proud of being Welsh and what the country has to offer."

blur operates the world's largest online marketplace for business services and is working with its extensive network of service providers to offer a range of packages to attract commercial sponsors.

Philip Letts, CEO of AIM-listed blur group, said: "We are delighted to play such a big part in putting the 'We are Wales' team on the road and are very confident that our platform will facilitate raising the $17 million sponsorship target.

Solid start today.
The most interesting thing about Blur share price is the very small number of shares actually in free float.
When it moves it will still move fast.
Up & down of course !

Interesting article, I can no longer see, yesterday re the battle over Tung.
6 major groups shorting v director buying & Fidelity adding.

[j777j] 02/3/2015 08:26

US listing will quadruple the share price

Get over yourself

OTC markets is Over The Counter. It's used to sell junk shares in US.

WITH THANKS TO Valuespotter ON 3i

This is a superb find.

Buy Raising profile before US OTCQX listing?



Interesting project now listed on blur website:


hxxp://www.blurgroup.com/project-details?projectId=ksc-NK9PT2


Is there a plan to increase blur's US profile ahead of a dual listing? Note recent director buying and the clearest possible statement that a dual listing is being actively considered:

Confirmation of plans for US listing could do wonders for the share price. Remember what it did for GW Pharmaceuticals!

The times they are a changing.
Blur is now the new young darling of the I/C.

That's why buying began about 10 am.

The report is fulsome & glowing in the back cover of the mag.
The section where they handle director@s dealings.
The whole column is devoted to a buy rating for Blur.

Letts quoted on the companies ability to make greater margins from the big boys who are now queueing up.
Not sure I have seen that before ?

Covers the financial future & puts the fall down correctly to an re-statement of the bottom line calculations.

The first great write up of many in the financial press ?
Well we can dream .

[j777j] 27/2/2015 15:54

Simmering nicely.

[j777j] 27/2/2015 11:46

This should blast back up towards 150p


Lots happening that is positive.Great recovery play.


A 50% retracement of the collapse from 800p to 50p brings the share price to 425p.

Food for thought.

Interesting company. I've dipped my toe in and may put in more after I've delved deeper,Regards,Marmie

[haydock] 19/2/2015 16:24

Last month now 69.9%. up.

Can afford a breather, but had one with the pull back. Now going through old high in the 90's & above the 200dma with the possible bonus of a golden x to come.
Beginning to look like the Japanese chart says it should.

The US. float would be rocket fuel.

[latifs100] 19/2/2015 13:17

come on break above £1.00 today

[j777j] 19/2/2015 12:15

Long way from 800p.
Maybe another 18/24 months should do it.


12 month high is around 575p.


This could be a catalyst

"As well as further strengthening Board governance, David Sherriff will be working with the Board to explore the options available to the Group with regards to increasing the Company's profile and providing further growth and investment opportunities for both current and future shareholders. This includes considering the possibility of dual listing the Company's shares on the OTCQX Market in the United States ("US") to complement its current listing on the AIM market of the London Stock Exchange.
