Do you know more rubbish comes out of your mouth than my bin when it's empted by the bin men.

But who cares !! seems to be the thought.
Untill we get free care homes for everyone over 75 on the NHS and stop all these £1k a week private care homes no one is safe or happy after spending what 30-50 years building up their homes and savings just to give it away to cover their health.
Things have to change. Or is it that I am getting closer to that age I am now starting to worry.

One thing also to remember is that ABC with almost 20% holding, will the AA bod's ask / advice etc from ABC on any deal/ offer before they put out an rns on the offer?

Some good news at last, up-grade to £1.10 is a good start but I am sure £1.50 is the real target for 6 months time.
Sorry Tom that hasn't helped you has it.

So why bring the trading up-date forward, it's either better than everyone is expecting or it's bad and they want to get it out the way so everything is looking good for the next qtr.

When an offer period begins, the offeree company must announce,
as soon as possible and in any case by 7.15 am on the next business
day, details of all classes of relevant securities issued by the company,
together with the numbers of such securities in issue. An offeror or
publicly identified potential offeror must also announce the same details
relating to its relevant securities as soon as possible and in any case
by 7.15 am on the business day following any announcement identifying
it as an offeror or potential offeror, unless it has stated that its offer is
likely to be solely in cash.
Any such announcement should include, where relevant, the International
Securities Identification Number (“ISIN”) for each relevant security.
If the information included in an announcement made under this Rule
changes during the offer period, a revised announcement must be made
as soon as possible.

So what's going on there then with the rns announcement. normally all companies give an rns of the total number of shares on issue at the start/ end of each month.
So what's this one for now, is it for a bid announcement tomorrow or what?

For many pubs is very sad if they have to close , lose money lose jobs and never open again for all the owners and staff , unfortunately it will hit many small independants and owner / runner pubs more than the big groups.
But if that happens in the long run many big groups like marstons could come out of this with less competition and as such make more profits.

I take it you are not in ITV at the moment, so are you looking to get in and at what price or are you just here to be bloody minded and pi*** posters off just for the fun of it.???

What do people expect when there is a consolidation, all those that always say it's the same and doesn't make any difference to value, well the truth hurts as the poor old pi's always get shafted. So just when will we see £2.50 - £4 ?

When you think that if the same consolidation of 15 took place with the so called 33p offer the sp would now be £4.95, so who's been taken for a ride.???

Simple, consolidation.
the sp goes up by 15 and your holding goes down by 15x's
so don't rush and think your going to sell the same 1000 shares for 15 times as much. because you will only now have66 shares.

Up again by a little more to 19.41%
everything helps

Sorry to say, yes I remember it well, I was dealing shares almost 40 years ago now while playing some of the oldies, chratches as well. infact I still have a few old country & western records.

It's just the spread of 35%, so even if 1 share was bought it would go boom. which means it's probably going back down by 35% when 1 share is sold.
Not a very happy sight it is.

Keep up the good work, the more you talk rubbish and deramp the more it goes up. thanks

increase again by a little more to 19.32%, slowly slowly catch a monkey. I wonder if they have a target of 20% + before we get an rns.

It could be that ABC is building up enough stock / % and waiting to see what any bid price will be and then put their own higher bid in. After all if they already own approx 20% it would be quicker and easy for them to get it agreed.

Should say sells not sales.

After all this time I would imagine that if they have / do agree in principle a good offer price it would the go out as an rns.
Now it could be that all / most of the main shareholders could have already been notified / asked about the offer first and if they agred it would say in the rns that the bod's recommend the offer but normally it would still go to a vote. but if the main shareholders have already agreed it then it will pass anyway.
Now the sales, it could be that some / many think there will be NO firm offer and the sp will drop, so these people are selling now to buy back in later. Who knows what's going to happen. But if ABC are still buying and building their stake they must think a deal will be done soon.
