Quite a few of the board are from Domino's.
For this to make FTSE, in day 5 years time, would indicate 100x rise. Worth a £500 punt, with this director. I mean, who would have thought a pizza company in ftse?
Roll up Roll up here is your chance to get in cheap, there are always panic sellers when they see the price drop,i have just taken advantage and topped up ,LUBBLY JUBBLY, Remember news anytime.
ACQUISITION to be announced anytime,now you don't want to be out of this when that happens,you will be caught with your pants down.
Very relaxed with this one lets see if we keep following the trend and end up in the 80's tomorrow. If not no problem we will be at 100p before you know it,then well lets see where we go from there.
I topped up today. Hoping for a small rise before Friday close so I can get a few quid back into something else for mid next week. Then move it all back here again. I had this down as worth looking at selling in March. To be honest I think it might be worth holding longer, will be a few ups and downs along the way but sure this will be heading north quickly the more people find out about the directors etc GLA
Yep I have been very relaxed with these shares since buying the other day, I feel it is like one you don't have to keep watching and just let it do it's stuff. We will be 100p plus before we know it, then lets see how far we can rise from there, the more this rises the more investers are going to take note and do some research,we could get a nice rolling snowball effect here, so any price couls be possible.
no doubt be a few shakes on the way up but with these directors this share is only going up! If we close over 70p today i wouldn't be surprised to see 80p tomorrow or Friday! GLA
Sorry Trevor, if you meant you were in at 42p I'm jealous. I'm in at 54 ;)
I doubt very much you will be able to buy at 42p again.
On the cards here I think!! 42p buy In looking good now
An early investor in Domino’s, Wray’s relationship with Mr Hemsley began in the 1990s and the duo intended to rescue MyHome and expand the business, using their experience of the franchise world. Then the financial crisis erupted and plans for MyHome had to change. Mr Hemsley spent several years restructuring the business, selling unprofitable divisions, upgrading the management and improving the way the company was run. It was renamed Franchise Brands and today it has two major divisions, Ovenclean and ChipsAway. Ovenclean provides an exceptionally thorough oven-cleaning service; ChipsAway offers small-scale scratch and dent repairs for cars. MyHome is now a minor part of the group but may be developed in time. Mr Hemsley is actively looking for acquisitions, too, and there are at least two in the pipeline. The aim is to focus on franchise businesses with strong brands and similar customers to Ovenclean and Chips-Away so that the company can offer a multitude of services to each customer. It is early days for this company but the signs so far are encouraging. Last week, the group delivered maiden results for the first six months of this year, showing profits up 18.3 per cent to £724,000. Midas verdict: Franchise Brands is a relatively small business today, but Mr Hemsley and his management team are highly experienced and determined to succeed.

An acquisition could be announced any day now so that should really start the ball rolling and get us rocking here.
MIDAS SHARE TIPS: Franchise Brands boss is hoping to repeat the Domino’s effect When Stephen Hemsley joined Domino’s Pizza as finance director in 1998, the company was valued at about £25 million. He became chief executive three years later and has been non-executive chairman since 2010. Today, Domino’s is valued on the stock market at more than £1.75 billion, so anyone who invested in the franchise pizza chain when Hemsley joined would have made a handsome profit. Now Hemsley is hoping to do something similar at his latest venture, Franchise Brands. The business floated on AIM last month at 33p and the shares have since risen to 45½p. Spruce-up: It costs about £60 to have your oven or barbecue cleaned with Ovenclean +1 Spruce-up: It costs about £60 to have your oven or barbecue cleaned with Ovenclean The company is still small – with a market valuation of just over £21 million – but Hemsley is determined to build it into a £100 million business in the next few years and the long-term growth potential could be considerably greater. The company’s origins date back to 2008, when Hemsley and highly successful entrepreneur Nigel Wray bought upmarket cleaning business MyHome out of receivership. An early investor in Domino’s, Wray’s relationship with Hemsley began in the 1990s and the duo intended to rescue MyHome and expand the business, using their experience of the franchise world. Then the financial crisis erupted and plans for MyHome had to change.

that this share will start getting on investers radars preet soon and I'm sure lots moe eyes will be looking at this situation,we are still in the very early stages and I think you will start to see a lot of posts here soon. Well we were the early birds fellow holders who are in now.
your post is much better than my posts at explaining the potential here, yes that is the main reason I bought into this was the directors
Bought in and I don't think it's overpriced. What you are buying into is the directors. They have a solid track record and will be looking to massively increase the value of this company as they themselves own a fair chunk of it and will benefit greatly from its growth. Will be interesting to see where this is at value wise come April next year
Shame on you, you were my worst winner today, Two Beat you so come on lets see what tomorrow brings and see if you can be my best winner of the day hehe.

Didn't buy, ive bought and riding the wave nicely thanks.
I agree. It's amazing what a Midas article can do for a share price.
Looks like ramping to me. Overpriced and unjustifiable excessive spread in buy/sell prices. Market-makers having a field day after Sunday's article! Watch for drop.
