not in this share and yes I think it should be more like 150p but I would Never put well run and Wincanton in the same sentence. This is a company that doesn't ask and work with you to get your best it just dictates .... certainly on my site anyway

Hi on the update that has been put on our notice board to keep members informed on the progression of the removal of the final salary pension it clearly states £292m deficit, but like you say not sure why it is now this value when in the last report it was £142m

Apparently the deficit has grown from 15m in 2002 to 300m to date. 15m funds per yer are to be alocated in a bid to reduce this.

The good news for investors (but not the pension members) is that after the consultation period the final salary pension will be closed to any future accruals, but the bad news is that the final salary pension defecit is just short of 300m

just set my account to buy at 8.5p.........hope i'm not doing the wrong thing (due to investor sentiment at the moment) although I do believe this company is vastly undervalued and as a going concern should be alot higher than it is. AVM is now unhedged, gold is rising but only time will tell if it holds ($1319 at time of posting this), production costs/oz around $1150, production targets downgraded but due to breakdowns and maintanance so will probably get upgraded again soon. If this company can stay afloat then surely with patience the only way is up

To all my fellow wincanton drivers (and anyone else), please be safe whilst out delivering your goods in these horendous conditions and remember your life is worth more than completing your delivery. Get home safe!!

Made a few grand but have decided with the low share trade volume and the large spread price (obviously mm's dont have confidence) that my money is safer elsewhere. Shame the investors dont have confidence as the company is turning around quite well. Hope the share price goes up for anyone who is in but last nov the sp rose before the results then low trade volume caused it to eventually recede back to 42p. good luck all still in but this is just me being cautious and no way reflects my views on the company as a whole.

Profit up; margin up; net debt down. Up we go.........

I too think they will be good. the last ones looked ok to me

dont talk rubbish forget about open or closed, have you looked at the share price, I work for the company and see how it is run now compared to when the sp was £3-4. The fleet is better utilised, more backhauls, have a look around, the industry is on its knees not because of hauliers but the economy. Hopefully we will start to come out of recession and goods will start to move, not that win doesnt have goods moving with the year round seasonal contracts So Keep Dreaming This Will Go up. oh how many company's these days owe nothing?

I thought that last year but dont think pi's likes the fact that dividends were not reinstated. Personaly I think it will be a few years for that and would prefer them to get the books balanced before hand. Incidently I think it was costing 15 ish million in dividend payments

full year results out thurs 13th, If anyone i thinking of getting in, best do it soon as I would think the results will be good. Half year results Llast Nov showed a profit and that didnt include all the new contracts won last year

on an official news letter we get at work. Longer trailers are already in service, this is the next phase of a decade long test and incorparates modifications to the unit and more modifications to the trailer to produce an inteligent system

Wincanton drivers are to be the first in the world to use a revolutionary new system that allows the trailer to follow the tractor unit accurately thus reducing trailer tail swing. The longer trailers are proving beneficial to the industry, economy and at cutting congestion but can limit manoeuvrability. The system designed by wincanton and Cambridge use computer sensors on the fifth wheel and hydraulics to control the trailer wheels so the trailer accurately follows the unit. The system is hopefully to be deployed later this year, with wincanton drivers being first use in live operations. Share price doesn't do justice to this company

Iv,e delt in a few totaly different companies since leaving here, One has MASSIVE debt but lots of pi confidence - shares shot up, another has cash in the bank but no pi confidence - SP dropped badly, then there is Wincanton whenever there is a sniff of good news it tries to go up. IMO everyone is sitting on the fence waiting to see which way it is going to go.

Thankyou, bought back in last week. Some nice contract wins since last results (which I thought were quite good and made a profit) so S/P drop over done IMO. Adrian Colman Purchaced 36k in April so he must know something and then we get 2x 4.1 mil trades on 23rd may (which hopefully will be buys as I cant see why they would be sells so close th results). Share just broke the top down trend line so if it holds should continue up, we just require more interest in this share. All in all IMO it looks quite rossy lets hope the results are as good as I'm expecting.

x2 are they buys or sells, lets hope they are buys as that would be fantastic news
