Same crap thats been posted all year.

More jam tomorrow rubbish.

Dil ! 4 someone like yourself thats always likes 2 rubbish this share u don't half keep a morbid sick interest in this one !

If YOO is such crap why bother 2 tune in?

Probably disbelief IMHO

Because him and his mate Scripo bought at 50p a couple of years ago.

lol mct will you ever admit you were wronmg on this...when it does a rights issue will you admit you have been wrong?? go on i dare you.....rights issue......you admit you called it wrong and have done for months/years...bet you wont

Will you admit you were wrong if there is no rights issue?

WT.

yip...if yyoo hit 50p and secure their financial future I will admit i was wrong...as I am sure other people who have a poor opinion on the stock

I am pretty sure Dil and I have never owned an ounce of this rubbish. I definately have not ever had a position in YOO and I am pretty sure Dil is the same.

http://fundooprofessor.blogspot.com/2005/10/lollapalooza-from-insider-trading.html

So if you both really are so confident of the finances, rights issue, why not short it??

Really, a serious question?? Or are you expecting a rise?

I can't speak for Dil but for me I am an investor and not a trader so therefore I am hardly ever short whatever the outlook. The market is a funny place but I prefer to catch up side from beaten up stocks rather than anything else, its worked for 20 years so why change?

IMO, If YOO went down the rights issue route then they would need to canvass support for larger shareholders, going for a rights issue without that support and failing would kill the business stone dead. If they managed to get the rights issue out existing shareholders would get massively diluted, again. But it would lend support to the business, even if only temporary. They have got to get cash generating else all new cash would do is sustain life for a little longer rather than really solving any problems.

If I was appointed to the company I would close the loss making parts and focus on profitability before trying anymore new relationships. I don't need more naff, losing making products on the shelf, lets get what they have working first.

If dateline really is a gem then that is the last thing I would think of selling.

Scripophilist

YOO stated the amended Hill's contract, will make the gaming division profitable. It's the gaming division which is responsible for the continued poor performance. YES and Dating are cash flow positive.

The RNS indicates YOO will retain a portion of the dating equity and the marketing opportunity's will increase. Indeed, it may deliver business for YES, via an additional dating portal, through iTV. I expect rights to the 3G dating revenue to be shared.

So with the gaming division profitable next year, why is it not a buy?

A French online dating business, is sue to be floated at over 70m soon, with similar revenue's to Dateline. They do not have the golden carrot of 3G video dating.

Where is the evidence of a rights issue or placement in the RNS. The last sentence in the second last paragraph, is connected to the last paragraph. The two are linked.

Skill gaming will be introduced at the year end, expanding the pool of players and new advanced gaming services to be launched on Freeview.

The bone of contention is, do you believe every word in the RNS? For my sins, I do!

ipublic, YOO's management have been very good at stating how good their prospects are and how they are about to go cash flow positive. Unfortunately they have failed time and time and time again at delivery, losing nearly 50m of shareholders money in the process.

How many failures does it take?

Scripophilist

Ask a SKY shareholder, what the cashburn was pre 2000. Go on!

So cash flow positive has been delayed a a couple of months, due to a delay in the Hill's contract, now on better terms. So what? Hardly a failure.

Yes, next year is make or break, but it looks good to me. Based on the last RNS.

No placement or rights issue.

iPublic I agree .... Santa's going to make available an interactive money tree so YOO directors can carry on burning cash via their new technology that no one else uses and these will then ten bag by xmas ....

"Ask a SKY shareholder, what the cashburn was pre 2000. Go on!"

PMSL, So SKY a virtual monopoly is comparable to YOO, LOL! I'll enjoy that one.

Come on guys, wake up and smell the coffee. Please. This is showing all the signs of failure.

If it weren't for mm manipulation these would be a tenner by now Scrip .
