MaoWombat...Totally agree. SP fall in line with global sell-off and probably sells from hedge funds opposed to deal and now miffed. I have just sold 2 crap performing AIM dogs and will buy more here ,if price drops next week ....which I doubt. I think some people on here are underestimating how transformational this new group will be....bring it on !.

Here we go again...Mr Whowrotethis..doom, doom, the end of the world is nigh !. You are a depressing fellow and in need of some therapy methinks. Give the new team a chance, for god's sake. I wish some of my other shares had the same potential as this one.

I don't care about a few pence increase in SP....more excited about future prospects of the new group. I see today's rumour, that Asda is musing an offer for B and M. Booker is a much better prize. GLA

Well said Supercharger. If the Booker deal gets the go-ahead on Wednesday, we could see a steady climb. If it doesn't, Whowrotethis will be droning on for weeks and weeks and weeks !.

I hope so Chilting...have just lost another 40% in UKOG....in a day !!. Good job I offloaded the bulk of my holding at the last spike. This was supposed to be the next oil bonanza...but has turned into a banana instead. Someone described AIM, as a wild west casino...and it certainly is !.

Yep, this is going the same way as my other AIM dogs....being mugged by stealth. It's a bad sign when the share price falls, despite constant buying...this will be my last AIM share for sure.

Tpinvest....Almost all the AIM "star tips" that I have bought over the past 2 years, have lost me money....and this is looking no different. At the moment it looks like falling off a cliff, rather than just drifting....hope I am wrong !!

This share seems to be in freefall....always happens after I buy an AIM company. I hope that this isn't another dog....have enough already to start a kennel club.

Davsk...Thanks for your thoughts. Big potential here I think.

Andyjm13...I agree...it won't come to anything. I worked part-time for Tesco for 20 years and they were always fair with pay rates. Checkout staff got slightly more than shelf fillers like myself...but you could always train for checkouts if wanted. I prefered to fill shelves, as had a high pressure office job in day and filling shelves in evening, was great exercise...and it paid for both my daughters to go to university...so no complaints from me. Tesco was a great employer.

Can't seem to make sense of this share at moment. We were on an upward trend not so long ago and now seem to be reversing. The MM playing games...buying price fairly constant at 15p and yet the spread widens, taking down the selling price. Has anyone got any thoughts on current situation ?. Thanks.

For goodness sake, cheer up !. If Tesco is part of a balanced portfolio, what does it matter if it slips a few pence ?. For sure, the retail sector will change markedly over the next decade...but who's to say that Tesco won't end up a winner ?. We have an Aldi store 10 minutes walk from our house, which my wife uses for bits and pieces. However, she will only do main shop at Tesco, which is several miles away, as she likes the better food selection, clothes for the grandchildren and meet her friends in the coffee shop. Aldi by comparison, is cold and soulless.

Think I'll go !. Not very inspiring AGM RNS. It's always jam tomorrow with this company. Should re-name it Deadhall. GLA

Tacuma...I blame nobody but myself for my AIM failures....and have thrashed myself with birch twigs many a time. Yes, all those companies you name are dogs...apart from VANL, which is recovering and I did make a small profit there. But, EOG is a serial failure and I can't see any future with it's dismal track record of broken promises. But good luck anyway.

Oilisthe future....I try to forget " new share options ". Silly me took up the last two fundraisings and lost my shirt and trousers. Still, I can always watch repeats of Hugh's videos...so warm and reassuring....LOL !!!!!!!

Heard it all before....New BOD, new salaries, new promises....and new excuses. This company is a total dud !.

Difficult to call this share. Company is a perennial loser and silent into the bargain....needs some good PR. This board is dead too...goes months between posts. Lots of small sells...but offset by a few big ones. Decisions, decisions !.

JustChampers...Too true ref "unlucky companies". I too have learnt the hard way. Once a company attracts bad luck, it seems to snowball. I got the jitters when Ellis retired so soon after flotation...not a good move. At least I made a decent profit. Was looking to buy back in for the longer term, but too risky at moment.

Hi Carrington...Good post. Sold 60% at �2.10, but retained the rest for 2018 prospects. Can see them getting back to their innovative and deal-making ways. To my mind, there aren't many companies out there with the same clout and prospects. GLA.

OldLong....Good analysis...but don't forget our overseas operations, banking and global trading expertise. Many years ago, I bought into E.D. and F. Man, who traded pigs and cereals...later down the line, they transformed into Man Group, the fund manager. Lots of interesting opportunities for Tesco, providing we retain an innovative CEO. I worked for Tesco for 20 years and consider Terry Leahy ok as a grocer...but Dave Lewis looks more promising as a forward thinker and deal maker.
