Wondering how far to watch this fall before l put the house on it According to the FT brokers are forecasting 1.43 euro dividend next year http://markets.ft.com/data/equities/tearsheet/forecasts?s=GVC:LSE

I've watched this for a while and saw the RNS this morning as a buy opportunity, which I took. If read carefully the news is hardly as bad as all the sells would suggest. Still very optimistic on this one.

Nice quote from the CEO "we believe the organic growth potential of the Group is now greater than originally anticipated at the time of the bwin.party transaction acquisition.” .

Big buy (RNS) by Gatemore Capital Management, just read their website and it seems they might know what they are doing. Thanks hobione, the odd bit of good fortune sometimes, compensates for the disappointments.

Just got really lucky. had a sell limit with my broker at 24p and they sold at the top of the spike at 24.4. This never happens to me. Back in though at 22.6 and waiting for the results.

Monty - would you help me out by telling me the date of that RNS, can't find it. Thanks

Think I might consider a bank loan rather than sell this!

This company only gets better ! .

This would seem to be the next significant move but l could not find mention of it in the results, did anybody hear anything ? 16.11.2015 - On timing of moving up from a standard to a premium FTSE listing... "The trigger point on moving towards premium is obviously GVC publishing its 2015 report and accounts, because that gives us the three year track record to incorporate the Sportingbet transaction. It’s not quite clear when the various index components meet to discuss admission, but we do expect moving up from standard to premium to be in 2016. Whether it is the latter part of Q3 or the early part of Q4, I’m not certain about." Only Premium listed shares qualify for inclusion in any of the FTSE UK indices. This is taken from the FTSE UK Series Index Rules: "Only Premium Listed Equity Shares, as defined by the Financial Conduct Authority in its Listing Rules Sourcebook, which have been admitted to trading to the London Stock Exchange with a Sterling denominated price on SETS are eligible for inclusion in the FTSE UK Index Series."

Forgot to mention, div + special of 1.02p, xd May 19, that's 10% yield at present sp. Total for year 12% From last report ...."NetPlay TV continues to have a very strong balance sheet and remains highly cash generative, giving the Board continued confidence that the Group is well positioned to pursue not just bolt on opportunities but also more transformational deals, taking advantage of the organic growth and M&A opportunities that lie ahead. " This has the appearance of an early stage GVC to me. Opinion - DYOR .

Take your point on NPT although l like the amount of cash they hold relative to their size, no debt, unlike GVC, so some small acquisitions could be on the cards, also decent buying by directors back in March after results. Only an opinion of course!

Been here 5 years now, best performing in my portfolio, bought Netplay in December and feel it could be a similar story eventually. Slightly different niche. Anybody have a view?

The only guys who need to be careful are people like you and me. I've been out for months and staying that way, just ignore the rampers hoping for a fast buck and MM's with stock on their books. .

March 2010 l bought VOD and BT on the same day, still holding but wish l'd put the lot into BT. Feel Vod is a safe dividend share for timid income fund managers and not much more.

. Good luck with the ramping concert party...have fun! .

More recent RNS March 11th says same thing, states - Negative NAV of 30.9p Hard to understand why anybody is trading.

Only buys this morning. My top up showing as a sell along with another at same price. Inc spec div, yield is 13.66% and several years div cover in the bank. Further to go l think.

Might be a generational thing, I'm early 60's, don't know what you are of course, but l do not know a single person who is voting in - and I don't spend any time at the local UKIP club :-)

gs, like you will have been here exactly 5 years on Feb 17, now my main holding. Stuck with it through all the ups and downs. Directors have options @ £6 (but open until 2022) so probably still away to go eventually. Looking forward to the divs being paid again. I sometimes wonder if the guys playing on the gaming web sites ever wish they had just bought the shares! .
