Frankie 8,145 Posted August 20, 2013 Author Share Posted August 20, 2013 I would think Green's statement of "I will sell my shares.........." is hollow to say the least if it is open ended. There is a big difference between (1) "I will sell my shares....... if someone wants to give me £15m for them", which is basically just a repeat of what he has said previously to McColl, and (2) "I will sell my shares....... at the best price I am offered by a closing date of...."Somehow I think it is highly unlikely to be (2) unless I've missed something in the statement. I think it may be a case of (2) now. Obviously it's difficult to try and predict anything in this farce but if the boardroom changes are made, then it's inevitable Green's influence and share-holding will be diluted. He either waits and the price drops or he sells now at a considerable profit - just like Imran last week, 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

bossy 0 Posted August 20, 2013 Share Posted August 20, 2013 Most board meetings I've ever been to just about everything is decided in advance and there is little genuine discussion or decision making at the actual meeting itself. No sensible director would leave decisions on matters as important as this to chance "on the night". In general this is true. But also, in general, most companies are not in the midst of a crisis, a significant challenge to Board members and possibly a split Board. I am sure Board members have been talking offline but what we don't know is if they are all talking to each other. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

He must realise that he is in an end-game scenario now. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The For Sale signs went up almost as soon as they bought the thing. That's not a criticism - just a fact. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
