Dear JohnI think you have made an error posting an article that you think will be negative for Spoons but is, in fact, very good news for pub sales!? You may wish to edit/remove...In other news today's app update now allows Amex card users to pay & as they spend double all other card users when flashing will prove rewarding for all.

Beaufort Securities

The shares deserve some premium to its peers but trading at FY2018E P/E of 18.6x with dividend yield of only around 1%, it now reflects just about all anticipated opportunities, while remaining vulnerable to any downside shocks. Beaufort downgrade the shares to Sell (from Hold) and set a price target of 1,142p.

These will look better by the day as the rivals stats come out. No wonder one moved from a few days before to 30 Nov hoping comparisons will be forgotten...

Noticeable absence by the media,including the BBC,Sky,Bloomberg,CNBC etc re Tim's remarks regarding the potential beneficial impact of WTO terms on food prices. The UK will be free to impose ZERO tariffs following Brexit whereas the media only refers to the MAXIIMUM tariffs that can be imposed on imported food.

Spoons backs citizens’ rights

It’s beer o’clock, and if you’re in a JD Wetherspoon establishment this evening you may see a beer mat with this intoxicating sentiment:

"The UK should unilaterally and immediately grant full rights of citizenship to legal EU immigrants."



Crazy European Immigration Crisis..All of them will soon become legal EU immigrants with "full rights of citizenship"

See one of the other brewers has moved their results day well away from Spoons on Weds...always nice to see buying ahead

I’ve visited 150 Wetherspoon’s pubs – they’re not all great but we should be grateful for them

"I spent most of my twenties working in independent boozers on just above the minimum wage, serving good-quality meals at £10 and pints at a minimal £3.50. But over a decade, I saw prices go up, year on year. Equally, I saw the popularity of Wetherspoon’s surge, and often found former locals from my pubs there, enjoying the affordability of the food and drinks."

Food critic who replaced AA Gill slated for scathing review of Wetherspoon pub... but she revels in being called a snob

Ms O'Loughlin was named as Gill's permanent replacement as the Sunday Times Restaurant critic in September.

What a sad life you must lead Johnwise, posting known fake news @ 5.30am on a Sunday. Pathetic. The shares do seem to go up on the days you post negatively though, so please carry on (margarine tomorrow?)Nice to see the Wetherspoon in Ramsgate was 'mobbed' when the Sunday Times sent it's critic in & she was told it was a 40 minute wait for food, even with 150 staff, meaning the tills must have been ringing nicely. Mixed grill went down well as did the viewShe should have used the app...

No Poppy's for sale at my local JD Wetherspoon ?

JD Wetherspoon pub chain forced to deny poppy ban claims after hoax Tweet

The pub chain was left furious after the rumour started gathering pace

I'd be more worried if they couldn't be bothered to serve me beer!

Actually, some quite smart hotels have coffee machines at the breakfast bar which provide excellent espresso/cappuccino etc. but you can still get a watery Americano from the waiter if you insist.

If they cannot be bothered to serve me coffee then I cannot be bothered to spend my money at Wetherspoons

Its Low Life Service

In a statement, a spokesman for the pub chain said: "We have now installed easy-to-use self-serve coffee machines in approximately 100 pubs across the UK and the Republic of Ireland, with all pubs set to offer this service by mid-November.

Good business feedback! They're updating it every month now by the looks, given the uptake, ironing out snags one by one(My previous stats are for iPhone only)

I downloaded the app but disappointed the individual craft beers each pub has can't be ordered in it.. Doesn't stop me though going though. Was in every Spoons in Liverpool last weekend and found it hard to find a seat they were packed..
