Reduced by about 600,000 shares to below 5%. DD

Nice little profit, add about 4% to pre tax profit - didn't someone say it wasn't worth it? http://www.digitallook.com/news/news-and-announcements/sports-direct-takes-profits-from-jd-stake--1074925.html DD P.S. Thanks rbrand, looks like I was spot on with what your like as a person!.

QE What is it with this board, I'm not trading this, have never been in here, am waiting to get in. All you have to do is ask rather than talking about me in the third person. I've been completely open about my views on SPD and my intentions. "........not because Dave keeps mentioning me", get over yourself QE, this is a discussion board. Other than the two ex RFC derampers, the idiot rebrand, it only leaves yourself in which to engage in intelligent conversation. DD

Thanks QE, appreciate it. Think many people on these BB's miss the chance of listening to, and learning from, those who have something of value to say, which includes your good self. Whether a holder or not I welcome the views of everybody (apart from those who clearly are just trolls, pure and simple - their motives and reasons for posting are so obvious and its best just to ignore them, or go along and have some fun winding them up!). I find an opposing view of a holding to be very useful if it's supported with fact, it forces you to research more, dig deeper, stand back a bit and reflect on how the story may have changed since you invested. Perhaps unlike yourself I have no compunction in posting on a thread I'm not invested in (but am contemplating buying), not the trolling one liners (I.e. It's going to tank, a placing is coming, wouldn't want to be out of this at the weekend, mm's want these shares, big buyer in the background, blah blah blah) but serious questions based upon fact, analysis of the fundamentals, the market/sector, regulatory changes and impacts, the future, etc. etc. Most boards have decent experienced investors who can either counter argue your viewpoint or they can't - not particularly looking to be persuaded though, why take the opinion of a complete stranger!, but am looking for perhaps a steer into another direction for further research. Apart from the resident ex RFC trolls here (who are just bitter about losing money - why else are they posting?) there appears only to be yourself that posts anything of value, so would be a shame if you cease posting, invested or not. Have a good day. DD

Have stated why I referenced TCG, and suffice to say the case is very close to my heart, so have no time for anybody that excuses such companies based purely on their own monetary gain or pure greed - rbrand I would guess is invested in TCG, says it all really. On the point of not being "allowed" to post on FREE BB's and who has more right, I will let that pass as do not wish to cross swords with you QE as do have some respect for your good self. Will however continue to post here and elsewhere despite if I'm invested or not. Getting back to SPD, at the moment I'm beginning to think there isn't much in the short term to get this moving North, results are some way off, so will see what happens post Forsey. Good luck and you enjoy too. DD

No offence but you talk absolute rubbish, so don't have s pop at me for bringing up TCG - "Thomas cook were apportioned no blame", biggest load of *******s I've ever read. They breached their legal duty of care, try reading up on it (the case was heard last May). I posted about TCG to demonstrate that the trolls on here should think more about what other companies get up to rather than governance issues at SPD. Would make a pleasant change if you actually posted something that made some sense. DD

By the way stuzee, just for the record, some time ago you assumed that the total turnover for MASH Aviation Ltd last FY (£595k) was generated via SPD, well it wasn't. Don't suppose you ever do any research as this is not covered by the Troll T&C's, so no point asking how much you think it costs to hire an AugustaWestland AW109 helicopter - it's about £2,500 per hour, no point also asking how many hours do you think SPD hired the aforementioned helicopter - SPD paid for about 70 hours, can you now work out how much of MASH Aviation turnover was from SPD?. Tat ta DD

Hello QE, still waiting to get in here too. Shouldn't listen to that Stuzee if I was you, just a troll, easier to filter. No doubt he is still banging on about governance and the news today that MA has stuck two fingers up to the MP's, don't blame him (MA that is not the resident troll), they are just trying to use him as a political football. They have been invited to Derby HQ to see for themselves but they have declined - strange as its the focal point of their main issues!, says it all really. Hopefully see you here at 400+ sometime. Good luck DD

Please..........be nice to get in a bit lower, will keep the sad trolls in a job a bit longer. See what happens next week QE with Forsey.......£5k fine and slap on wrist IMV, it's all something of nothing. There are a damn site worse Company's out there, TCG for one (those poor children). The sad ex RFC trolls on here are only here because they messed up and lost their pocket money, if they wanted a just cause to fight and troll they should pop over to the TCG thread.......but they won't, money more important to them than lives. GL DD

GL Great. You seem a bit confused, "see further falls as people stop using this shop".....BUT "it's a great shop to save money". DUH, make your mind up, ramper or deramper?. DD

cambridgeblue - "a directorship ban", on what basis did you come to that decision?, a summons to attend then failing that a fine is more likely. C'mon keep it up, a bit lower please if you can. By the way, curious, you were in RFC are you in here? DD

14th

Agree, don't mind reading the bear as well as the bull case so long as they are factual and logical. Any target EPS here for year end?, have at least 40p but who knows I suppose. QE - don't think (well hope!) this will stay above 400 for long, still have the Forsey farce to look forward too on 14th March. DD

ffs, I give up, call yourselves trolls!........pffft DD

Cambridge (and the other troll) you are a big disappointment............did they not teach you at troll school how to deramp a stock that you are not invested in?, one liners just don't do it I'm afraid. If you can't be bothered to do any research and dig up some decent dirt then the sp will do as it did today.......creep above 400, tut tut, please spend the rest of this evening doing a bit of research so that tomorrow it gets back where it belongs.......less than 400 (sincere apologies to those who are in, no offence intended). Thanks in advance. DD

Keep up. http://www.ft.com/cms/s/0/def4384e-dc91-11e5-827d-4dfbe0213e07.html#axzz41YnQU8Ks

No offence Jolly but your comment did make me chuckle. The last time, apart from the past couple of months, it was around this price was during 2008....oil went from a high of $147 to $30-$40 in 2008/09 about where we are now (ish), the poo then doubled in about 10 months. At this price, both RDSB and poo, it's anything but toppy IMV (ok I'm taking a longer term view). DD

Jc15, Ignore my previous guess as to why there is a difference in price between A and B shares. Found an article from 2008 which stated that: "When buying back stock for cancellation, Royal Dutch have tended to buy the 'A' shares and this has created a greater demand for the 'A' shares and artificially pushed their price above that of the 'B' issue." http://www.thisismoney.co.uk/money/experts/article-1645165/Which-Shell-shares-should-I-invest-in.html#ixzz417K84Mtk DD

Not doing a very good deramping this lately, pull your fingers out!.............its March next week! DD
