Don't panic - it's just a share-split.....bringing the sp to about 2.50


EDIT 31 Oct07:-
- Ooh deary me - ROK warns of lower profits . . . . currently 184

since the announcement of public sector costs in all sorts of areas, i am afraid ROK was always a rocky (sorry!) choice, especially after the collapse of Connaught ..... while it is very easy to blame the directors for what you guys call "misleading info", it would scarcely have been a responsible action for them to have cried, "Abandon ship; we're all doomed" while they were assuredly in the process of trying to keep the company afloat

noted cynic - guess we wern't cynical enough!

I was slightly sceptical in fact, but the data provided by the company supported the view that buying was an acceptable risk. Other companies in the sector trade still, eg, Morgan Sindall Group, [err - hope this is not the kiss of death simply mentioning them here in this context]. I still argue that company directors do not appear in some cases to comply fully with the legal responsibilities they have as directors.

On a more philosophical note "Oh well. its only money".
