Fans Worried Over Villa Future

[Risso]

Given that Petchey has such a huge number of shares mostly bought at the £1-£2 level, if the takeover was looking dead in the water I'd be suprised if he didn't let a small percentage go to take some profit while the going was good, and he clearly hasn't.

Yeah because Petchey is really going to be that concerned about a few quid isn't he?  He knows that one day, we'll be taken over, and his investment will pay big dividends, until then he'll sit tight.

I asked this a few posts ago.

Do any of you capitalist running dogs actually understand the stock market or are you just guessing?

I think the exchange above shows that so far none of us that have posted on the topic have the slightest clue what we are talking about. No change there then, carry on. :smt002

I always thought share price was driven by supply and demand.  Pure economics in action.

However somebody (oh alright, Mark Ansell) told me that frequently the market will re-value the price simply to stimulate trading.  How I don't know.

Of course this could be complete crap.

I've worked out why Laughing Gravity hasn't been back to entertain us. He's been moonlighting as a speech writer for the President of Iran.

Tish and pish to you all.
'Tis I that speak for all Villa fans, I have the common touch, I come from a council estate background and I never get out the bath to have a piss.

Surely the biggest indication that a take over wasn’t going to happen was Robobum saying it was.

My captialist two penneth....

Share price rises as speculators get wind of possible takeover.  Buying activity drives price up, club makes it known to city that there's been an enquiry, price rises further, everybody holds their breath, and hold it a little longer, no news from the club or the city, speculators get bored and go off and play somewhere else.

To be fair to him, he's very good at saying Doug's about to step down. I make this the sixth time he's done it.
