Up 4...don't mean zilch. Im beginning to worry that the Co value is far outstripping shareholders funds value, which is kinda like its supposed to do with a low tier go - go stock. Just saying like....if your twitchy?

Well swerved today...given my slightly inebriated state...G holding up admirably considering the attractive sell price!

Ok this is off the books...but most of you will know of the recent crack down (oops)..on the one armed... WH by their own admission said its likely to tank full year profits by c.40% (£70-150m) and lead to a closure of 900 betting shops. Happy days! Shares up 10p! Uckf Me...ya couldn't believe it!. I do not understand the mrkts these days. One thing for sure...the loss of the fobts income will be v.hard to replace.... if the deal is done?There's always an escape hatch for the bookies! Relying on the de-regulation of US betting is no win win for UK company's the big US firms aint gonna roll over and die.

Check the ytd and 52...no comparison bunks...

It's a big subject H and I'm in the pub....sooooo?

Why this stupid mob will not allow me to print 5 stars im boogered if i know.

Ocelot...had it not been for those unfortunate set of circumstances those of a political nature and the war, G imo would likely be 600 without the gas assets and thus at a premium to Nav. Throwing off lumps of cash and debt to equity of little more than 10% a deserved premiership stock imo. But as to a premium rating the geo stuff must always be factored in probably at a guess 50+ a share so that might preclude a ☆☆☆☆☆ rating as will the unpredictability of the oil price which invariably has fits of booms n' busts.

Some juicy profits to be had and a great day for some skullduggery by the barrow boys. Its just one day in 365 albeit a better one than many.

Hasiba....I'm in the blind follower category...and happy to be there. PS. Had a nice 4/1 touch yesterday at York. No quite enough to plough in here but after recent wins...getting a stash together as long as this doesnt explode upwards towards Nav!

A company's mrkt cap (value) is usually greater than its shareholder funds value because investors are pricing in future earnings increases among others. This indicates that investors are confident about a Co's prospects and are prepared to pay more now. But here's the thing...NOT HERE... that's an anomaly about to change. That shows the political damage done to G's worth which might easily be 400p. That's an anomaly also about to change.

Even money this is the best performing share of above £200m mrkt cap stocks ytd and 52wk.

Buying c.430p of assets for 270p. How bad is that?

See the shorters still trying to make money....losers.

Blimey...whose left in?

272 paid!

Very good...

Gas conservately valued at 260p currently not accounted for (cash raise and politics the only downside). Should we be debt free by year end wonder how much we could leverage to develop our Gas?

Bookies hammered today as revs will be decimated by the £2 max spin on the one armed bandits. Unfortunately this will inevitably lead to shop closures and job losses. Glad i outed my gaming stock last year.

Excellent pre AGM statement. Very positive on all counts with debt reduction and fcfs as highlights.

Hasiba if the market is prepared to overlook execs excesses and to be fair that's not in their remit (as long as it doesn't impact on earnings performance) then I guess holders have to turn a blind eye however unpalatable. Depends how strongly you feel the bod have taken advantage of the situation to line their pockets. Hasiba you obviously feel this to be the case. Your options are few. Suck it up or sell out. Nil cost options are a free ride at shareholders expense and should be voted out at every AGM. Does the G bod have any of these instruments of shareholder destruction? If i was a Gkp holder id be very ****ed off but would suck it up if I was losing money. If in profit i'd sell as these people are unprincipled and my cash could be better used elsewhere by management I trust.
