Deliberations are ongoing, and there’s no certainty they will lead to a transaction. Daily Telegraph

Platinum has made an initial approach to Marston’s about a potential deal to take the company private. Daily Telegraph no bid

However, the price of Food and drink has risen after the lockdown. But, £32.88 for 2 10oz steaks, 3 San Miguel, 3 Hobgoblin, 1 chocolate indulgence is very good for me, thankyou.

Used both on Monday, £8.58 Eat to Help and £4.29 Privilege card

Re: Does the shareholder card discount drinks as well as food?

Unfortunately no it doesn't, food only

So offer values Linden Homes at £1.075bn or 968p per share, compared to Galliford’s 615p closing price, with Bovis shares closing overnight at 1,059p.
Whatever Galliford is worth, £3 minimum.
Plus hopefully, Aberdeen reimbursement.
Hopefully 40 pence dividend.
What's that, £13.08 without Aberdeen, at previous closing prices.
That would do me.
what I can not understand, is this is a better offer, yet the price now is not reflecting that.

yes we will.

great news

My vouchers have just arrived via ii.co.uk.

50% off hotel breaks too, as we did last year.

Peel Hunt today reaffirms its add investment rating on Marston's PLC (LON:MARS) and raised its price target to 125p (from 115p). Story provided by StockMarketWire.com Broker Forecasts data...

luddite well spotted.

UBS Have been building quickly and crossed another threshold on the 19th (2 days ago)
Now 9.02%, was it them that paid that much?

RNS does not say how much was paid.

my guess, any one else?

1st round

Fox Disney. £16.00

Comcast £!4.75

2nd Round

Fox Disney. £16.00

Comcast £!6.75

3rd round

Fox Disney. £16.00

Comcast £!7.50

Just wished we had a UK White Night to save us from the Americans at the last minute. (the exchange rate is making life easy for them to pick up UK assets at the moment)

AJ Bell Youinvest wont send the vouchers and now you can not contact Greene King to bypass them.

Unlike Marston's (a smaller company) they don't have anyone up for the task, and I suppose the Company Secretary was getting fed up of making exceptions in previous years.

Interactive Investor are more accommodating, but you do need to ask for them. the secure mail link works for this action.

The Takeover Panel said that the auction would start at 17:00 London time on Friday and end on Saturday evening. It said all parties had agreed to the process, which will have a maximum of three rounds.

For those wondering if some of the current price includes a dividend payment.

HL report that both the Comcast offer and increased 21st Century Fox offer include an amount in lieu of a final dividend, so Sky's management haven't declared a payment.

Can not believe what I have just read. Wow.

Possibly Morgan Stanley on the 16th, upgrading to overweight and from 610 to 640 target price. Breaking some the broker negativity. Hoping to move forward to 600 over the summer, and really hoping they take Marston's with them.

I wish, correction. Well done to Societe Generale �13:20 on 26 January

Liberum Capital, 15 January, Buy at 10.60.. Liberum Capital, downgrades 23 January to hold at 9:30... Liberum Capital, 25 January remains hold but at 9:35!! Wait for It! Liberum Capital Upgrades today to buy,12:50!!.. what a Team.... Well done to Societe Generale 130:20 on 26 January, not there yet, but did stick out above the rest.

Great news. Worth far more than Murdock was hoping to get away with. Thank you HMG.

Surely this RNS means that the contract has to be completed by the 2 remaining firms. Fair enough. Surely Carillion have not been paid for completion in advance. If so we need a new Govt. To me, meaning that remaining part of the contract profit or loss is down to those 2 contractors. Fair enough, just a bigger job and possible reward?? with a possible, but unlikely loss of amount stated. No experience on these matters at all, but involved shareholder.

Quite a depressing initial fall this morning, goes well with the weather today and over the summer I suppose, which has not helped. Could do with more encouragement from the boss, reports do always seem to be dour, sell yourself and the company and product please. Do you ever see any advertising local or national? Remind people that they can enjoy themselves! A build up of shorts to about 4.4% has taken its toll, but if I remember, 10 - 12% a couple of years ago. I think fallingknife is right 600 is a fair start to rebuild today, HSBC have 595 as there target a few days ago!! Today Shore, Liberum and Peel Hunt today retain or reiterate add/buy at far better value. Even Investec who reduced from buy to hold have a target of 667. Total over-reaction on Marstons too, with far fewer shorts in place.
