More hilarious chat from LSE.
One poor fellow, Flatliner, posts the matched bargains facility by Jenkins is a way the company can offer 150p a share rather than shareholder take up the (as yet non existent) tender offer at the same price? well, I ask you?
Another unfortunate soul, Ornamental, amongst others, claiming all sorts of nasty unpleasant things about the Ceo. Why do the mug punters always take everything so personally? Did the CEO make them buy shares in this transparent woke nonsenses?
Poster HeresHopin, the proverbial Turkey that votes for Xmas posts that at sub 50p buying for his pension would be a great long term play. Maybe he should read his Sipp rules?
"now is the time to load up " he's lamenting, "just tuck them away"? is this his coping method do yo think? People go to exhaustive lengths to blame anything and anyone but themselves.
Adrian understands the situation well , albeit in his own mind. "It's a no-lose punt". If you want to sell for 150p you can? (how) if you don't sell, then this is a "LOW level " entry into the "next Tesla"?
Sadly, even a week with the Fist would not cure this lost lad, he's far too gone.
Fireclade, has the usually noob conspiracy theories going haywire in his mind.
"You can only sell and not buy on the market" he claims, and the price has been "artificially manipulated down"
He offers no reason why anyone would want the price down. Neither why LRB to date have not RNS one single share buys under the 150p 'tender price to make up the alleged 29.9%. Maybe they are a charity and would rather pay 150p to get rich quick red/black gamblers than 40P in the market?
Flarliner is hopeful, the reason why they announce matched bargains with Jenkins is all due to the 150p tender offer being "released imminently"
I sometimes wish i was that innocent and naïve. True the market can make you so doubting but I wonder if Flarliner still hangs his stocking on the end of his bed on Christmas Eve?
There's scant evidence of self reflection or personal responsibility for their own actions on that thread, and rather like here, the slimy fluffers with their one sentence cliché ramps have now left.
This thread will die but in years to come it will be read by someone, anyone, for some reason or another and please reader take what you can from the pain of others.
This story is old, but it continues, If something seems to be a get rich quick easy route to making money , Run away, then run harder and then get a train even further away.
To any one in the future , 2050- 2100 think of me kindly. I'm dead and be warned by the ghost of Fist. For an easier stress-free life, get off here and just buy index trackers, Travel and go out and meet some chicks ;)
The Fist of reason.
Good to see they got my name right (no, they didn't!). Or let the context and other posts get in the way of a good post. For the record, I will make a SMALL profit at £1.50.

I’m seeking only to understand the intent behind the words. You sound like it pleases you that others are in this position? That you get pleasure from the difficult situation that everyone who is invested here is in.
I’m stating only a possible logic behind why create a matched offer facility. Obviously that offer facility is worthless if there is no tender offer to match to. And, given that a tender offer has not so far been forthcoming, it will prove worthless.
You have to ask yourself, why go to the effort of creating one, if there is no intent to deliver one? We all know that there have been more talk than walk when it comes to RNS’s. But there is usually intent behind every action. Either misplaced or otherwise.
Perhaps you could offer some constructive POV on what’s happening, rather than just dissing everyone else who tries to understand what is going on?
matched bargain **************s exist but shares only transact at agreed prices much like aim except the spread will be a lot higher here is an example;

Pedro - thank you for the link to Jenkins. It has helped me to understand what might happen.

Dont shoot the messenger,iam not the author of that post.I just found it amusing,ne odd that somebody obviously reads the posts on this forum,then writes about these posts on another forum,rather than discussing it on the same forum as they were written.Hence the stalking comparison.Who knows what is going to happen to TNT,could be the best thing since sliced bread,or an utter disaster.Never use money you cant afford to lose,an oldie but goldie.
Reckon definitely got at least one more mega spike in it before January
Gary,
Sorry realised after I posted that you were just re-posting.
