Worldlink Group Share Chat (WGP)

Quote "the client figures for Betbutler have been based on Worldlink's assessment of the opportunity" -

so an established betting firm is relying on a technology company to make assessments of betting and gaming revenue....well that has to attract the investors...

i guess its a toss of the coin as to your version or the other version as to whats going down and whats going to happen lol
gl to all of us lololol

WGP are projecting £3.8M PROFIT by December 2013? Also, the quarter we are halfway through will earn £112K (so they already have circa £60K in the past seven weeks? Is that the case SD?

I can definitely see why Betbutler wish to merge with Worldlink, because they have built up such a a lot of goodwill and a solid reputation for good business ethics in the sports community. No brainer ! lol I bet the clubs are just waiting with open arms to welcome them back !! Has the person who wrote these "reports" been in deep freeze for the last few months or just deluded !?

although it is acknowledged there is active discussion concerning a possible merge?

between Betbutler and Worldlink??

Worldlink Brokers
Worldlink Brokers has two relationships with providers of broking services, Jarvis Investment management (JIM) and Saxo. The JIM relationship stems from a previous initiative and the objective is to maintain the client base but grow revenues though better promotion. JIM principally serves casual investors with infrequent modest trades. The Saxo offer is very sophi

Actually, that is a good question from Breakdance. Is it safe to assume your source is not Worldlink themselves?

no offence intended matey, was just having a laugh in general about the situation we find ourselves in here in good ol`wgp lol and how nothing seems to go right lol
once again sorry if it sounded bad the way i put it

it is always "the deal is about to happen", "the funding is almost in place", "we are in negotiations with", "an imminent RNS". No change, nothing to get excited about, I am sorry to those who have lost out but I suggest you write your investment here down to zero. We have all made unlucky investments in the past so you are not alone.

I cant counter that news because positive conversations have been going on with potential investors for a long time, its always positive, always about to happen any day now, and always funding is on the horizon. Very positive outlook as usual. PS any "positive" sign of the accounts yet that were promised end of October? Yours positively x
