Why such a big fall 7.5% today ????

Why the 10-12% fall today???

Sales flat, LFL down slightly. Can't keep sacking staff. Will go down 10% from here.

Back in @6185

Yep looks like I got away in time. 6% drop from highs of last Friday. Wow!

Sold half today. Let the rest ride up to £70.

The NAV is written down another 3.1p based on 3 companies valuations being rejigged. SP down to 41.9p as I write a fall of 7% today. When will this ever stop?

If the banks deemed it wasn't worth keeping TCG afloat then I don't think the taxpayers should. It's not like it's strategically important for the economy. They failed to move with the times and their debt was unsustainable. Repatriation's a separate issue - that's about helping your citizens get back home.

about your mother in laws experience. They'll be charging you extra for a seat soon, oh what? They already do? Despite the fanboys pathetic hero worshipping on here, in the Which Magazine 2019 survey Ryanair has been named the worst brand for customer service. When asked to select from a list of 50 words, the majority of respondents chose to describe the budget carrier as “greedy”, “sneaky” and “arrogant”. Over 50% of those surveyed gave Ryanair the worst possible score. Ryanair came 100th, Scottish Power 99th, BT 98th. It's easy to find online. Personally I use Easyjet and am happy to pay a bit extra for a more humane experience.

Only mugs make prediction so I reckon £12 by end of year

By the way the Brexit argument was started on the TCG thread by a Leaver - Jessie - who implied the EU are so awful for not coughing up money to compensate stranded TCG travellers. Fact is that the EU and Mrs May agreed a deal. Her own MPs in the ERG voted against it. THREE TIMES. Boris or Corbyn will come back with a very similar deal to May's deal as the EU aren't budging. Therefore we have 2 choices Remain or Leave with no deal. Put that back to the people and get on with it. The 1st referendum was based on lies that we'd control immigration, get a great deal with the EU, have our own free trade deals with loads of other countries within a few weeks and have loads of money for the NHS. Now the Brexiteers have shown their hand and revealed that there is no true benefit in leaving lets have the 2nd referendum and take it from there. That's called democracy.

What does BWD mean?

Predicting share prices is a mugs game so I reckon 300p some time this week.

"Just remind you Brexit won ...."

Yeah - and look at what a laughing stock we are. Another Prime Minister anyone?

"We built an empire without the EU "

Oh dear , another Brexiteer who still thinks it's 1860

Never mind our contributions to EU ... how much do you think 3.5 yrs of wasted Brexit lawyers fees and pointless negotiations have cost us? What if we leave with no deal - how many more years and billions will it cost trying to secure a future free trade arrangement with the EU? That's not even taking account of the immediate devastation revealed by the Yellowhammer reports the govt were forced to publish. Many (sensible) people who voted Leave now realise what a mistake they made and would now vote Remain in a 2nd referendum.

SP up 5% since I posted on Friday. Plenty more upside to come as the cash pours in. Seems that millions who've lost future flights with TCG for holidays, weddings etc will be booking up with Easyjet in the knowledge that their lost TCG bookings will be reimbursed by ATOL or their credit cards. Feel sorry for the TCG employees and those who've had their plans upset but glad my EZJ shares are going well.

Whereas O'Leary's pay package increases I notice the cabin package size decreases. It is significantly smaller than Easyjet's cabin bag allowance. They still insist on splitting up families in single seats all over the plane unless you cough up to purchase seats together. Ryanair still trying to rip off paying customers through hidden costs I see. I will choose Easyjet from now on for my flights. Any news from BBC Watchdog lately?

TCG going into administration is good news for Easyjet and Ryanair who will be paid to return passengers home and also benefit from holiday business as people will be booking with them in future as they're more reliable than TCG. And when customers experience the smaller cabin bags and check in chaos of Ryanair Easyjet will be the long run winner.

Good news for Easyjet and Ryanair though - they'll pick up the slack.
