I'm no genius when it comes to takeovers, or directors failing shareholders......but when a bid of 156p per share is rejected without consulting shareholders ( with the price around 110p at time of bid), and the price is now 30p.....it feels like maybe they should have accepted at the time.

And that now looks a hell of a price.

On the other note of directors having as much as say as ordinary shareholders.......I hold £20k worth of stock.....Per (CEO) holds near £2m worth of stock, and runs the company....I'm guessing he may have more of a say than me.

A lot of the directors are in heavily at prices over 80p....some over 90, and 100.......so would be interesting to see what they would think of a potential low offer, or would they cut their losses.

I’ve asked this before and got a few varying answers but realistically to a long term shareholder with and average of 55p, am I ever likely to see a profit on that?

Every time I type this it near makes me sick that I could have got 156p per share the last time a takeover bid was put forward and the board turned it down

It is good to hear.....just wish we were seeing some positive movement in the SP to reflect the more positive position the company is supposedly in

Lol no they haven't run out of money......I'm sure there are other circumstances which have led to this?

From betting for 25 years I'd imagine it's one of the below things

- A betslip has been settled incorrectly and you have tried to withdraw the money and they have put a stop to it

- there is suspicious patterns on the account so they have suspended the account temporarily

- you have not provided the correct documentation on the allotted time to verify your account, or proof of funds

- you have just opened an account to place one bet on an event which they have deemed suspicious

OR it could just be an issue with their banking or yours.......it will not be a long term thing, and it will be one of the above, so no point in saying on here that the company is a scam, or that they have no money left to pay you cos that's simply not true,

What is with the significant drops day in day out this week.......and where is this strategic plan they talked about?

Similar to last year, if any bookmaker is not making big profits this Cheltenham they seriously need to consider what business they are in.

There has been millions lost over this week on Favourites getting beaten.

It's not to dissimilar to last year, however unless things pick up for punters, it will be the best cheltenham results for bookmakers for a long long time.

And the share price is declining at pace. go figure

Does anyone expect a bounce anytime soon from the 1p mark in the right direction?

6% down today but can imagine this will be the case due to the allocations being taken at 1p.

Does it bounce? and if it does...when?

Standard Evoke........last year Cheltenham was really really good for bookmakers.

Be interesting to see how this year goes.

Can't see last Friday's big race being good for the profits.....by all reports most UK bookmakers lost millions on Constitution hill winning that flat race.

Is it a good thing for all of us shareholders if they own this much of the company?

(Genuine question)

If anyone has never heard of ENET....ignore that ramp,,,,just look at the last 4 years trajectory.

Worst share you could own.

Has anyone had any comms about the retail offer yet on HL?

I've still not received anything

Also, another strange move from a shareholder to buy at a higher SP pre Retail offer ?

FB I understand some of your point, but David Nugent is not new blood.

He has invested again significantly over the last few weeks above 1p? and now the placing is going to be at 1p,

That was my question. He probably would have knew what the placing price might be, but he still bought more shares above that level....that's why I'm asking why.

If the placing price is confirmed this morning as 1p.......why were there so many big buys going in from DN and others at higher over the last few weeks?

Similar thing happened 2 weeks ago

I have had two dreams in the last month where i dreamt that this SP hit 9p, and I didn't sell......and it crashed.

If them dreams ever come true, I will definitely be selling lol

for now I'd just like 5p.

I don't think your far off the mark with that last comment bananaman

Watch this fly up here then go back down to what were at this morning.....it's the hope that kills me lol

Virtually no buys this morning and up 5%.

Results were really strong, sentiment was good.....SP rose to £1.14 and looked to be heading to the £1.20 mark.

Since then, what are the key things which have impacted the decline?

US AI / Crypto stocks uncertainty?

Prime Minister of UK facing pressure and uncertainty of who might replace them? But why is this impacting Lloyds so much in comparison to other shares?

Genuinely thought last week based on results, dividends announcements and share buyback the only way was up ( unless something catastrophic happened - 12p decline in a matter of days suggests something catastrophic has happened)
