RoyGA he didn't say it was like RR, at all, ever. As for your last sentence, well.

"Under the new incentive scheme, CEO Dan Finley could earn up to 148.1 million pounds and CFO Phil Ellis up to 14.8 million pounds if Debenhams' share price hits 3 pounds over the next five years. The stock closed at 12 pence on Wednesday."

Haha. Fantastic rise this morning considering I went in after pay day yesterday. Did SCB's crystal ball pay off? If you absorbed any of it you've missed out on the first rise in years! Dan quietly getting on with it and driving down costs whilst pivoting to a lighter model. As always a long way to go and a lot of SUSPENSION SOON posts no doubt such is his life. As you were.

The RNS today was far from pointless, it stopped the word "suspension" being posted every 3.5 hours in here.

Nothing has changed, management are firefighting and probably having high level conversations and signing off results comes last. If they are abysmal they will have been taking action I'm sure, they are backwards looking and you'd hope Dan etc is forward looking. More to be done.

Some furious on here this morning I bet! As always the bellowing into the void is a meaningless waste of time for all concerned.

I think somebody accumulating even £1k worth if 2 weeks away from suspension would be classed as mental. So somebody out there is positive at least!

Does delaying results change them SCB?

But you're giving running commentary on a race we do not know the positions of the runners in. Dan is the new blood, Dan may be arresting the slide. We don't know. Will results be improved? We all hope so (I think?). Let's wait and see. The ink has to dry! I want this company to improve through any means necessary as I'm in higher than the current price ffs. I'm not sat here arguing for it's demise.

Same goes for you pal. Just as bad as the press stating "delayed" results when are simply not yet. Income tax "u-turn" they never announced. What is your current price on this stock?

Are you comparing this company to Burberry because they sell the same material or something SCB? Zero relevance.

Stop this bon, literally no point commenting daily. Also somebody is putting thousands up already today. WHO.

Nice FED, and I'd like to see Debs pushed into the direction Very has been, I was surprised to see exercise bikes on there at a decent discount and their home section is improving, just need rid of the few less appealing brands and we're half way there. Some very automated looking buys from 2pm on wards, still no reduction in the publicly listed shorts so you do wonder.

Somebody I know was lending a very small amount out on T212 and the demand is now 0 and so he tried to sell and couldn't also!

I agree cash is a real concern. I have been through the 7 stages of grief with this stock although luckily not for a massive amount - it would have certainly hurt more than just my finances if I had worried about every single what, if-but and maybe. Some abysmal decisions made over the last few years and some gambles that seemed the right direction at the time but failed to pay off for a variety of reasons. A lot of your issues mentioned before have been addressed by the people with years and years of industry experience.

If this year was about applying the brakes and reducing workforce, reducing inventory and overheads, fixing the quite frankly embarrassing returns process and realigning with what could be worked into a profitable business then I can see a recovery is possible. NO amount of dragging up the past, or fretting in the weeks up to the business updates will change that. We were full speed and committed to many vanity projects and 50/50 gambles and I can see quite clearly Dan is attempting to unravel that and pivot in a way he did with Debs division.

Agree fully cash is king and if the company is still bleeding to death so to speak then I guess I've accepted that, if they are brave enough they could go cap in hand to MA who may be willing to assist as a last resort. Dan HAD to be given the time in my view.

Haha I have no idea! Nor do I wish to find out! Patience the key as before. On you go.

Somebody get SCB in charge of the Beeb with a crystal ball like that! Surprised he's got time to post on here for 9 hours a day with all the money his predictions must rake in.

Two bald men fighting over a comb springs to mind.

It was suspension and admin if I remember correctly! for 3 week straight, every single day!

The only fact relating to suspension here is it will be posted by the 3 shareholders every day then the results will come out (they'll still be poor, but better/show improvement) and the clock will start ticking again, they simply cannot actually have a stake in this stock.

The Tesla founder also labelled proxy advisors Glass Lewis and ISS “corporate terrorists” after they called on shareholders to block the pay deal.

Glass Lewis had warned the deal offered Mr Musk “extraordinary pay levels without commensurately exceptional performance”.

Well they can come for the richest man in the world.

SCB I have no predictions in regards to the H1 interim results, I am happy to wait until 30 November (3 months after 31st Aug) or so for these to be produced with much of the effort I imagine going into continuing to turning the ship around - a very slow process as I've said numerous times. You made a decent prediction last time I think and I don't always disagree with some of your points, if not a bit hyperbole, I hope that's a sign of your frustration and your investment as opposed to anything else more sinister.

The back and forth is almost as bad as the performance of this share, however I wasn't in at 400 thank fully! The board need their feet held to the fire in a genuine and constructive way and this forum can contribute to that, but it's just a tug of war at the moment over the same 3 points.

Sorry Pedro but anybody playing this game and buying or selling based on some of the claptrap that's talked about on here deserves all they get. I'd argue there is precisely ZERO people that have acted in either direction based on anything BFD has said. SCB is clearly a full time paid up employee judging by the fact he clocks on at 7am every morning and clocks off at 10pm every night regurgitated the same unanswerable questions that will however be answered in due course, as they were the last time and the last time and the last time. Both just returning serve with semantics and supposition.

I think shorts may be exiting recently. If the 14th doesn't show results I'll be all ears to the noise!
