Isn’t in the bag.

this inning the bag yet but, i’m happy to see shorts getting **** raped.

Where’s the clown that said this is the last time you’ll see 26p 🤣🤣🤣

I’m astonished at the hubris of this board. To turn down an offer of, I think it was 230/share? and let the SP then go off a cliff on three separate occasions is unforgivable at best. They clearly knew the state of the company and if they didn’t they’re clearly incompetent. The BOD’s first and, some would say, only priority is shareholder VFM. The offer was a get out of jail free card and they turned it down. W⚓️S one and all.

I wish those desperately ramping this steaming pile of 💩 would stop quoting Buffet. Remember his other quote “the most important thing to do if you find yourself in a hole is to stop digging”

I like the idea of a new BOD, personally, I’d drag them out by the their sideburns and flog them in the street. I’m in ABZ later today, I may pop in and leave a present in their lavatory, at this rate, my present will be worth more than the company.

WG does 24% of it's business in the US and 6% in Canada, there are a lot of oil services companies over there that may see this as a very cheap buy and with trump's mantra of drill baby drill, that has to be a massive opportunity. I also see acquisition by a US company as having few, if any anti trust issues, unlike the Sid bid. Only my opinion of course and possibly utter nonsense.

Trousered another chunk at 30p That's got my average down to a more realistic level. 3 weeks ago I was 12% up, by this afternoon I was 51% down. A motorbike I was planning on buying next week will have to wait.

clearing their f******* desks i hope.

I wasn't expecting that. Massive overreaction IMO. If this price doesn't draw in bidders, I'll be very surprised.

That could all change when they sell the Germany business.

As much as I’m willing this share to push past 70, someone is equally as keen for it not to. I can understand the frustration with VOD.

I threw a chunk of change in here following the second drop and have already been rewarded, however, I believe there's still more to come. The FT canvased 5 analysts on 30 Jan 25 and their forecasts are: Low 59.97 Med 84.76 and high 248.67. Recommendations are: 4 hold, 2 outperform, 1 buy. I'm holding but the yoyo price at the minute may tempt me to take profit and get back in on the dip. It was also mentioned as a possible acquisition by my broker, I believe based on the interest last year. I would have given a buy rating but, I won't buy any more as it'll only increase my average at these prices. Good luck all.

Shorters have got their teeth in this. Massively oversold but, a change in management wouldn’t go a miss as the current crop are taking this to historic lows.

Any idea when the results are due for this above?

Verizon was a possibility a long time ago. After VOD sold its 45% stake in that company, there was talk that Verizon would turn on VOD and swallow it. If there is to be an acquisition, I think a US company has more chance of approval than an Arab one. I’m surprised that this merger got approved, CK Hutchinson is based in HK which is currently a CCP port for malign activities.

Not been in Here for years. After this morning’s results, I thought this would soar so bought a few. What a failure that’s turned out to be. Already 5% down and it’s only 2pm. Either the shorts know something the rest of us don’t or it’s being walked down for some other reason.

Not new to VOD, I was in during the Verizon sale and made a very tidy profit. Just took and position after the ex divi and was very pleased to read they just cancelled almost a billion shares from treasury stock. A very significant statement, almost half their treasury shares wiped off the board. The turn around will hopefully gather pace over the coming weeks with the merger, any idea when that’s supposed to be resolved? Cheers.

There’s an easy solution to find the truth. Everyone sell some shares and walk this down. If they’re waiting for share price weakness, the buybacks should kick in. Who’s going first? 🤣🤣

2025 is 6 weeks away, what nonsense can the Iraqis come up with between now and then? No real indication as to when in 2025 either. Oh well, I’ve been waiting over 10 years to get a result here, 6 weeks is nothing.
