Posts deleted. Come back after your ban Tiger.

Tiger...how does the missus like her new 'channel' bag? If you have another good day maybe you could treat yourself to a nice 'rollex'?

Camden market.

Thanks Citypie.

This article was clearly attempting to misconstrue and damage.The fraud is within the FT.

Regulator.....this is what needs to stop in order to restore confidence in the London financial market and to ensure companies with huge potential for the UK don't all end up listed in the States.

Please act.

“In its key observations communicated to the audit committee, EY identified “a reclassification for discounts amounting to £17m” that was corrected by management, said it did not identify any other material misstatements in the revenue, and was “satisfied that the disclosures appropriately describe the classification of revenue and are also in compliance with IFRS 15.”

Another FT hatchet job. Save yourselves the time and just scroll down to the final paragraph;

To the regulators…..this is the kind of corruption that needs to be stopped, not restructuring of company’s to allow them into the LSE.

The LSE will be empty.

What is this nonsense??

Well you wouldn't would you because the 65% are sat holding. If they felt different they would no longer be part of the 65%.

" it's purely showing the total disrespect and lack of confidence that investors have for the questionable decisions made"

Not for at least 65% of them.

And it seems the price may have been acceptable but the structure was the issue.

Try turning that statement towards yourself steve.Do as I say not as I do springs to mind.

Happy trolling.

From steveinhull the ultimate THG troll!!

Now that's irony.

Jr....sounds like you're bitter.Maybe trolling MM will make you feel a little bit better about yourself.

Hope your week improves.

No need to be abusive Jr....we all have different positions and exit strategies.

Sounds like you're under water?

Makes an interesting post ;

"if the city wanted to mess with mm they ramp the **** out of it to ensure the free 35% comes at a huge price to matt and his mates."

Lower the SP goes the easier it is for Matt to scoop up chunks of the 35.

I suspect that the level of the Apollo bid was probably high enough to tempt the vast majority of the 35.

Personally anything around the £2 mark would do it.

I really don't care as long as we get a decent level of bid.

I don't think MM necessarily wants 'control' following a buy out in whatever form it comes albeit he wants to remain involved.

It appears that his main aim is a commitment to keep the 3 divisions together as a single entity as he envisioned and built ,and not have it sliced up by PE vultures.

A decent set of Q2 results will do wonders.Macro is heading in the right direction for us and we're in the right sectors to be in.

Set a baseline for a £2.50+ bid.

Thanks Rock…kinda negates the need for 2.8 at all.Effectively there is no 6 month restriction.

Nevertheless the option is there and I think they’ll be back as they were for Wood Group.
