gents - i've no knowledge of this sector or of SPD -

may i ask what Ashleys collective companies have in short term liabilities.

Looking at all his holdings on the surface, only Newcastle football club is debt free.

is he using my home team as a margin against all the other interests ??

Taking into account JD sports good result earlier in the year it looks like all the negativity is based on the HoF purchase and of course the write down of the Debenhams holding. Does anyone know how many share have been bought since resuming the share buy back scheme? Everytime he has donebthisbthe sga res have always risen significantly post results.

Another troll by the username lsehotdealz haha, share price is stagnant and there’s talks of fundraise at 10p on that board lol desperation has lead to going round posting on different board to prevent share price from dropping, usually ud stay quiet and average down and accumulate if you see huge potential lmaoo he’s spamming all the boards and a newly registered today as a member lol

And constant effing around! Administrators don't have the time to deal with if but and maybe. Concrete offers only.

Qantas good morning to you .

I doubt he'll be buying any of Debenhams. They'll close all loss making stores and all the good parts will be kept.

JD Sport Fashion reported a 49% increase in revenue to £4.7bn for the 52 weeks ended 2 February, with a 15.5% increase in profit before tax and exceptionals to £355.2m. Total like-for-like sales were up more than 6%.

350p before results in July.

Well said Robot.

Sports Direct using a share buyback announcement to have another dig at Debenhams "complete contrast to Debs..who ignored the wishes of shareholders". Of course SD buybacks also boost Ashley's stake in the biz.

Please do your own research as always.

Media Statement

Further to this morning's announcement of a new share buyback programme, the board of Sports Direct believes our share buybacks are an important mechanism for maintaining an efficient but robust balance sheet for the benefit of our shareholders, whose support, including during the Debenhams refinancing process, we continue to appreciate.

Our understanding of the importance of our shareholders and our actions towards them are in complete contrast to the actions of the board of Debenhams, past and present, whereby they ignored the wishes of shareholders, both major and minor, and offers of support, and completely destroyed shareholder value.

Ends

No - it was to close out his short. He was short from 50p, then closed.

I think this loss will blow Ashley's brains and SPD will be bust within five years.

The facts are SPD have hundreds of small shops and the two hundred smallest ones are becoming a real drag on the business. Also how is he going to get premium gear when he has few outlets to do the upmarket stuff justice.

Ashley is stuck between a rock and a hard place, SPD is a failing business and the profits will evaporate just like his bid for Debenhams did.

SELL and sell fast. SPD is a sinking ship it's time to man the lifeboats.

Debs, please tell me how Odey wins? Did he (one of his funds) not buy the equity?
