Might be up12% this week lol. But look at the bigger picture it was above this price few months ago lol. See there's groups wanting all u.k buses to be taken back into public ownership. Now they are beginning to shout . Time will tell I guess

Correct. Have a look at the article posted on the evening times on 21/07/21 about the bus companies in the UK. After a long research .

Now that a certain amount of time had gone past and some people on here saying I was full of it etc. Can you honestly say my posts weren't true now? I did warn you that the price drop was coming. But I was laughed at and it's not done yet .

Scotland currently running at 61% customer volumes compared pre covid levels.

Just a stat

Hi guys and girls . Here's how I stand in currently 6k in the red with lloyds . Do you think it's worth selling up and taking the loss or do you think I should hold on for longer. Personally I think there's a strong head wind coming and once the furlough ends I can see many job losses. Please if I could have your honesty and your thoughts on this matter. Many thanks.

Firstly guys look at the history of the company its there black and white look at the losses over the last 4 years . Figures don't lie . There's no blind sight happening. The company has been run wrong for years and years. For you guys to sit and blindly guess what's happening is Incredible. Don't listen to me or others simple do your research and you will see.

Wait six months- 1 year then we can compare after that and we shall see who is wrong and right.

Lol I've worked in the buses for 18 years mate , I see what's going on. I'm not daft I can see clearly what's happening right in front of me day in day out.

Buses are fully packed? What I'm I missing here? The buses are dead mate . No one wants to sit on freezing cold, old , rundown dirty buses whist paying over the odds to do so. Your deluded if you think this is going to end well for first shares holders. Over time they will gradually lose more and more big investors and were will the money come from then? . The local councils/ government's will soon one day say enough is enough with the bail outs etc. I can only seeing this going one way. In my opinion a partnership with the local councils or the council's gradually taking control of the buses. On top of that how many company's will tell their staff to continue to work from home as let's face facts, it's works for alot of company's now and the revenue for those not traveling to and from work will disappear. So in my opinion this is only going to go one way and it's not north .

Thank you for the replies)

Had anyone revived their Divi payment via Halifax account?
I've still revived nothing, whereas I usually get it straight away. Thanks for the responses

Sorry that was predictive text. It was meant to say" good news" :)

See Lloyds are closer to buying over embark company. Hopefully that's not good news. 400 million I believe

I personally think people shouldn't get ahead of themselves . The bigger picture is that although things are looking up you can't forget the problems that may be heading our way with low interest rates etc. There's a long long way to recovery. I feel there's going to be a missive drop in markets to come very soon and the potential for the market bubble to burst.(i feel we are in a market bubble at present.)

In your statement you mentioned the word" future" . Can you honestly say that you feel first will recover from this. I'm my opinion they won't. Yes the share price might go up a little in months to come , but as I've said previously I think lots of shareholders are thinking the same way that I am , and that's is to cut the losses. If it reaches £1 I'm out for good and that's me with an average of£1.46. there's only so much bad news I can take. I've been holding and hoping for 8+ years and it's probably the biggest and hopeless investment I've ever made .

I'm my honest opinion I feel that now the group has sold the biggest part of the group in regards to The profit section. This will never go above£1 now. I really hope I'm wrong.

Stagecoach massive drop today aswell . Lol I have both. On the plus side I have Lloyds too)

Thank you Paul )

Can someone show me where it's saying that they're will be a 30p special dividend return? From my understanding this isn't set in stone. Or is it? Any link would be grateful.

I personally can't see the public sector passenger demand returning to pre covid levels. Even before the pandemic the numbers were falling in public transport. Within just few weeks I have seen a small jump in demand but nothing to shout about. I can honestly see the government's taking back control of the bus services and tendering them out and failure to hit the stats I think the company/s will lose there contacts. It's already begun in several places across the u.k . First, Sadly to say I think first is a dying company and with the shares I hold its now damage limitation.
