Ahem....this is the Saints Web Forum....your brave mission is doomed to failure I'd venture....

Didn't JP announce a few weeks back that reserve games would be played earlier in the week to keep players fresher for potential inclusion in the weekend first team game? Perhaps this is a one off mid-weeker due to the 1st team game being on a Sunday ?

Looking just at the absolute values, I agree.

Agree, but people are (correctly IMHO) pointing out a change in trading patterns here rather than highlighting the absolute amounts. The change is 'significant' if compared to trading patterns over the last 6 months but is indeed small fry in the general scheme of things. Just a humble opinion of course. (and, no, I'm not Mary Corbett's cat. Never have been, never will be)

Unless someone in the photocopying department gets wind of the content before it's sent out and leaks the info which then manifests itself in a few 'relatively significant' share trades "just in case" something comes of it ahead of the share price starting to rocket..... Just a bumkum (sic) theory of course.

Agree "in the general scheme of things" but the share movements over the last 48 hours are 'many hundreds' percent higher than anything we have seen since the Tommac era. But as you say, that came to nowt so this latest shift in trading pattern will no doubt have little substance behind it either.....probably....

I reckon 'Trader' or 'Diggers' will know what's going on.

Dark? Yes. Uninteresting? Certainly not.

More shares traded in the last 48 hours than in the whole of June..... Now, how interesting is that I ask?

Yeah, I'd heard that too

Hello. "Interesting" forum join date you have there sir..... Not that I'm reading anything into it of course.....

Why is it that these round, five figure share trades (another 20,000 today) coincide with the reappearance of certain "summer of 07" posters on here? Answer me that oh wise ones.

The very same. Just a guess mind

Nice imagery. Thanks.

Usual source.....?

Around my ankles as we speak......

Can't we sort out roads, sanitation, medicine and education before forum banners?

It's not the same person. HTH

...

Nail. Head. Which leaves me to thank Mr Fulthorpe and his friends for nothing. Great work if you can get it....

Thanks for the update Weston, however, it's your last sentance that bothers me most....i.e. "Otherwise it will have just faded away". IFFulthorpe and Co have indeed been mounting a serious takeover/investment bid "in the background" (I use this phrase loosely as we all know they have been 'testing the water' in the public domain for some months now....) then, IN MY HUMBLE OPINION, they (or a representative) should come on here and explain why they were unsuccessful. I know it won't happen as there is no morallity left in this crap country of ours anymore but one can still cling onto a sliver of hope that Fulthorpe is from an old school of 'gentlemen' that feel duty bound to let ordinary people like you and I know what has happened over the last 6+ months. Is Fulthorpe that honourable?
