does Ken take a loss @96p?

[jonnyboy1] 17/1/2013 16:52

25,000 much to my regret

[dupree] 17/1/2013 16:51

I got (more than) 7,000 shares

[jamie62] 17/1/2013 16:50

10 mins to go....

[forearmed] 17/1/2013 16:49

er...2600 for what it's worth

[brando69] 17/1/2013 16:44

462,000 and counting...

nearing 2%

[brando69] 17/1/2013 16:36

so, 367,000 and counting...

[brando69] 17/1/2013 16:35

noddy - calm down - I thought I had 20,000 off top of my head - turned out it was 22,000. I've held these for many years, sold a few here, bought a few there...

Anyway - it's 22,000

I've not changed my tune about anything...

[philjeans] 17/1/2013 16:34

Holding 25k

[sami69] 17/1/2013 16:33

Hard not to understand why KM would not counter bid by a even a couple of pence if he has the financial backing...

[legit] 17/1/2013 16:32

I've got 10000

[poacher45] 17/1/2013 16:32

kilmeedyman do not waste your money. It is free to complain to the FSA but all they will say after the lawyers have seen it is they have not broken any English laws. It is totally bad management, exorbitant expenses, ridiculous loans, high saleries and expensive pensions. Although it is immoral it is not illegal.
The next thing I expect to see is a large percentage from the other big holders accepting the offer. They might even join the offer then in two or three years time they might buy them out at a higher price.
I have been shafted before but that was by Guinness Peat when they took over a high asset value share at a low price. The guy even laughed and said I should invest in Guiness Peat.
Sorry for all you smallholders but it is time to move on.

Brando, youve changed your tune.

I suggested on Tues that we tot up what all of here hold, to give us and them some idea on our weight.

You said i was in Toytown.

Noddy31 - 40,000
David77 - 250,000
Brando69- 20,000

Any others. Lets see the weight of us little PI's.

this will only work when we all stick together.

[jonnyboy1] 17/1/2013 16:17

The warning signs were clear with the 30% loans. The directors are thieves, plain and simple.

[joe say] 17/1/2013 16:14

I thought the director contractual sale was now outlawed under the new bid process - anyone no the exact restriction ?

[sami69] 17/1/2013 16:07

"no material changes to the employee base are expected to result from this"... nice

bet NEDs are looked after too

[brando69] 17/1/2013 16:07

Now would be a good time to try and work out how many we hold between us...

I only hold 22,000 now, but happy to throw my little bit of weight behind any collective initiative if the likes of kilmeedyman, david77 (and tara?) are game...

Between us we might have 5-10%.

[daneswooddynamo] 17/1/2013 16:06

i wish you well but sadly at 96p i've lost enough on this one already! Interesting that ken's vehicle is yet to make an announcement. I'd normally expect a throwing in the towel announcement at same time as recommended offer so maybe there is a slim chance this is not over
