MBG* = MCG

Hard to know the real reasons for the drop but FGP.L are 10% down on the month vs MBG 6%, so it's not all bad news, possible sector related elements to it ?

Expecting a rough day....

This share does the opposite of expectations :-) lets see

Intermittent trades showing from Dec 27th - Is that a glitch? Or some other explanation.

Interesting read here

Ah yes, you're right @Gwillerz79

Appears to a done deal, according to one source at least.

Did anyone hear back from investor relations?

Not that I expect anything other than a standard corporate reply but it’d be good to know, that MCG are aware and start raising their profile a bit.

They’ll be waiting a few years for my shares.

Happy to hand them back at £3+

Marston's is also carrying around 1.2B worth of debt though doesn't it ?

No dividend.

Admittedly probably a good LTH entry point but i'm not sure it looks any more attractive than MCG.

@registerme - what is your rationale behind this statement?

"I wouldn’t go long on this until the Mcap is below 200m"

@JG68 - i've done the same. I'd encourage more to do the same - give IR a kick up the a$$$.

Looks like John Dean (IR Director) has only been in the post 4 months - but that's enough time imho.

I'll be topping up if i have spare cash, all the way down to 50p if that happens.

This one isn't a day trading share, it's a long term recovery.

Good time to top up i'd say.

I'm in this for the very long term, same as paddy. 5-10 years - and i expect this will be a different picture long term.

When a trade shows as "unknown" in the trade history, i understand that's due to LSE not being able to deduce whether buy/sell ?

LSE explanation:

"We calculate the trade type based on the trade price being higher or lower than the mid price at the time of the transaction. Sometimes this calculation does not work, or the price is the opposite side of the mid price. This means we are either unable to calculate what type of trade this is at all, or the calculation shows it as the wrong type of trade (a buy instead of a sell for example)."

Is there any other way to know whether it was a buy/sell ?

Anyone else still invested here ?

Not expecting much, if any sp movement for quite some time, but i still have a small holding here.

One thing i do like about this forum is........."chat history"

Here are a few of QuickDips. Draw your own conclusions whether he made a profit or not and really what he and his aliases are all about.

it doesn’t alter my view this will will reach my sell target of £2.50 within 12 months. What comes down, can go up just as fast."

"I also said my avg is £1.22, take off the divi and I’m effectively in at £1.17. I also said a short term drop is irrelevant because I’m not selling until £2.50."

Strange how the Non-Exec Director share purchase didn't feed through into all news feeds.

Is that due to some nuance of how that was raised/submitted ?

That news is missing from at least 2 platforms i've seen today.
