Lets hope so Lspoons1,bit painfull being a shareholder here at present .

Really hoping we have bottomed out,we dropped to 130 ish after brexit referendum,just need a bit of momentum to get this moving in the right direction again .

yes skindle market makers can often lower the sp quite drastically if they get wind of good news further down the line,but as you say the board are very tight lipped at the moment,and that never helps.

Lets hope so skindle,all these small sells day by day,have just niggled away at the sp,just cant tell whats gonna happen,better to take some profit out,rather than nothing at all.

This seems to be going only 1 way.

Maybe our 9 biggest shareholders should have a whip round and clear our debt burden,,until its gone we face years of languishing around at a lowly sp,the fundamentals of the business are actually quite strong,sales and customer numbers etc.

Nothing suprises me anymore with findel,mr maudsley has been on the board since all this mess started when we were staring at a 300 million plus debt pile,and now they have promoted him,investor relations arnt his strong point,thats for sure.

toscafund ups there holding to 18.4% meanwhile im beginning to wonder if sports direct have forgotton about there investment in findel,bit like when i leave a fiver in an old pair of jeans and i find it a week later.with a busy xmas season getting underway at express gifts soon,im beginning to feel a bit more positive about my holding,yes i know,i change my mind like the weather,good weekend all.

After my negative post the other day about findel,the sp has climbed up rather nicely,life in the old dog yet,on another note our biggest share holders have seen there profits tumble by 60%.

Are on the scene again,wonder whos selling and whos buying.

I posted my last message before i had read the report,£3 plus in a years time will do me,we live in hope,one hell of a turnaround needed for findel though .

Findels overall debt is still actually bigger than the market cap,despite having sold healthcare,kleeneze and kitbag,and also 2 placings that raised over 100 million,what an absolute mess,the blame lyes solely with the board,if ever you needed a lesson on how to run a business badly,then this is it,thankgod i sold the majority of my holding here,just short of 3 quid years ago.#miracle needed.

yes skindle,having sold,healthcare,kitbag and kleeneze we are still in the same position we were before we sold them,imho,ppi payments was a kick in the teeth for us to,something drastic needs to happen to drag this company up from its knees,but having 10 bagged solg in the last year,my meagre 2000 shares here are freebies,long road ahead,but in the meantime i will keep it in my head that our major investors know a lot more than i do.

Morning skindle to be honest with you,i cant see this business turning around anytime soon,just over burdened with debt,but i will give it a little longer,if nothing happens,i will take my money out and put it into a few of my other holdings which are bearing more fruit than this 1,i think as long as sports direct and tosca are here,i will be to.

good morning skindle,yes could well be,least something is happening,think we need a minor miracle to get this well above £2,but we live in hope.

Showing bought,but when i click on the trades,they show red,which is it to be.

Thanks skindle,toscafund must still see some value in this company.imho.

That toscafund increased there holding again yesterday,wonder what shannanigans are going on in the background,interesting.

toscafund have assets of 4 billion,least thats what ive found on google,but it sounds very plausible to me,common sense tells me,that they either know or feel that something is brewing in the pipeline so to speak,maybe something that little pi.s like me arnt aware of,despite the results last week and the loss which we had over the year,none of our major holders havent sold a single share.that speaks volumes to me,famous last words.

Might be superglued at this price for the foreseeable future,still peak season around the corner for express gifts,lets hope those extra customers part with there wonga,regards.
