If this goes much lower I can see our friend Mr Walker buying more shares. Ha ha Ha!

[ialwayswinatmonopoly] 12/9/2008 23:09

Results our 29th September. Directors are expecting them to be 'in-line' which means that the share price will take a tumble.

"There she blows!"

Walker buys another load of shares at a rock bottom price of 60p. Thanks Steve!

[ialwayswinatmonopoly] 04/7/2008 10:41

Are these people selling meals or what?

[ialwayswinatmonopoly] 06/6/2008 13:14

If the share price goes much lower I can see Walker and his cronies buying more shares ha ha ha.

This sector will continue to show 'slow down' as the British economy continues to feel the pinch. Premium dining out is perhaps one of the most precarious of the investment area's in a turning economy.

Don't be fooled by the figures. The growth of profit year-on-year is a distortion. This years figures are compared to last years figures which included a disposal write off.

This company is not performing well in it's sector which as a whole is not performing well.

The figures only look good because they are compared against an extraordinary pre-year.

Walker is bullish in his statement that accompanies the figures because he needs to start to work the stock market to get the shareprice up for his (and is teams) exit. Walker is an entrepreneaur and whos sole objective is to make money. You will have noticed that he bought over £1M of shares when the share price was at it's all time low (only stayed at the price he bought them for a couple of days, compared to the various flat-line patterns that you observe in this shareprice chart!!!). That is hardly a demonstration of CEO confidence in his company but more than a person who knows when to punt. All the share purchase means is that Walker thinks the shares are worth at least 69p (Big deal!)

We need to see impressive figures from here on in to be convinced that Walker and his team are really onto something good. I am reserving judgement on this issue until at least the first interims this year. The restaurants will have to be outperforming competition in the same 'premium dining' league before his words are to be believed.

Wait until Walker buys shares when the price is RISING and then we'll see confidence in the company.

Its official. Todays price increase marks the first day of a share price increase in over 8mths.

I've stopped trying to predict the movement of this share. It's completely irrational!

It is too early to say that 66p is the support?

[chicken] 17/1/2008 11:21

yes hopefully seen the worst and an amazing drop considering no results of trade update has been made!

[ialwayswinatmonopoly] 16/1/2008 15:50

Why do I always seem to call it so right when ever the price is FALLING!!!!!!???

Bounce off 60p

[ialwayswinatmonopoly] 10/12/2007 09:32

Share price suffering from a re-rating of the entire leisure industry sector. This share should find support at 60p Arrrrrh!

[ialwayswinatmonopoly] 15/11/2007 17:04

"What the..!"

[chicken] 25/9/2007 08:07

Results look good with further expansion this year.

[ialwayswinatmonopoly] 29/7/2007 14:38

As we look like going through a period of financial re-adjustment, following the money markets realisation of an interest rate rise I think we could see the leisure sector being hit the most.

This is a great company but I think it will be amongst the one hit as the public at large tighten the purse strings.

I would expect this to drop below 140p before end of year

[ialwayswinatmonopoly] 13/7/2007 09:52

Talk about market manipulation.

The company release a trading update to say that plans are on course and trading is in line with expectations and then the MM's nudge the price up 3p - Huh!

I guess the market makers read the first sentence of the news release and didn't bother with the rest.

"Revenue up 152%"...

If one half of the business did £10.2M last year and the other half did £16.4M last year then surely anything more than that should have been well received. However, the company states that revenue is £25.8M, i.e., slightly less than 2006 figures.
