It's S*ds Law I suppose, that one of the few shares I still hold
on Ye olde Paper has taken off this week! So near Christmas with
warnings galore about simply trying to get a card from A to B in time
I'm hardly going to risk a T7 transaction with paperwork going back
and forth between me and the broker - not with the bulk of England and a
tiny bit of Scotland between us anyway!

Am I going to moan about the postal system now?
Well, it would be tempting lets face it LOL

Ears crossed for HBOS to hold it's rises into the New Year when the
bunny can seriously contemplate realising her paper profit!

:>)

i see hornby never even turned up at the AGM!!!! SHAMEFUL.

mind you, wouldnt expect anything less from a crook. he has no banking experience or knowledge.

he should be sacked with immediate effect along with the hbos board. as they r like politicians and wont recognise their own failings.

oh dear......more bad news for hornby.......how low can this go before he gets sacked.....as he wont resign similar to a labour politician

can we hear hornby sing....doo da doo da

cannae hear a f???ing thing

wot, no share buying from mr.devious

about time hornby etc bought shares to stop this plummeting

scot.

Never mind, you'll soon be able to buy this below the rights price.
Now that's what I call good investing!

i dont have hbos shares but cant believe hornby has not been sacked months ago. hbos need an experiencedd banker.....and one in scotland too!!

the prat is still buying construction companies....unbelievable. he has no banking experience...........u might as well get a guy off the street, it couldnt get much worse.

kiss your job goodbye, andy hornby......u r a waste of space

I think now is the time to buy they cant go any lower and it must be worth a little tickle , god loves the brave (or foolish)

wrong mojo.....going down more.

ps: god is a scottish protestant......i'm sure gordon brown would agree

hornby is finished!!

pick up your p45 hornby asap

Anybody know what the hell is going on.
Banks down 10% some builders upto 40% atm

its carnage dealer all around.....even some oilies are getting some clobber!!

cant see the rights issue taking place now.
hornby has let bank been hammered all year and 2 months ago this was more than 550p! he has yet to show his face in this country....never even attended the agm!!

he is not a banker.....and should go back to wherever he came from....he has led a chequered working life chopping and changing jobs or companies every given year.....that tells its own story i think

13M shares have just been bought in one trade,not something you would buy if you thought they will go much further.

that'll be hornby......they'll rocket about 25%, then he'll sell again and make his usual 6 fig some profit.....noses in the trough

The 13.8m were the UT from the end-of-day auction I'm afraid - and below the closing spread at that!

spanish dago called santander may buy over hbos......a large shareholder calls hornby a novice....just what i been saying on these threads all year.....i cant believe theres been no posts about hornby.....he's a novice, a crook in inside dealing....he's being paid a fortune and has no experience! unbelievable.....its people like him that give capitalism a bad name.....i'm starting to believe that we should go communist

the only good thing is that we are not in usa with their banking system! now that is CORRUPT!!

Sorry shorters!!!!!
The best time to buy a share is when everyone else panick... From 245 to 315 in two days..

its driven up cos morgan stanley will lose 250 million.....they advise to buy....funny that eh......just smell the corruption!!

it was the hedge funds that were short selling anyway mainly

MS AND GOLDMAN SACH are up for manipulating oil price to high levels.....all these usa investment banks r corrupt tpo the core

cheap as chips

when will hornby be sacked?

as he's like a politician in that he wont do the decent thing and resign.

marx was right about banking system after all causing widespread misery for country. its about time we tried communism as capitalism is in total dis-array.....not just in last 12 months but its going to happen for at least another 2 or 3 years!

why should people spend 4 or 5 years of life in abject poverty cos capitalist system model has gone pear shaped.

oh, and we need a strong leader as our PM......last time we had one it was mrs.t
