Lol, I wish you would admit to being waxman and the various other alias people have attributed to you... as you say you can't understand why people have numerous different names on these bulletin boards...
How about we just let the sp do the talking... The holders here are obvious happy to be holding and that would include the 50+ that have requested me to forward RWs email to them.. Your preaching to the converted here and wasting your valuable time when you should be decorating your pad for your retirement... Regards.

10B,
It doesn't answer any part of my question.What do you see as the sales ,Gross Profit,etc for this year and next ? That is what drives the share price.Numis have given their estimates at a NPV of 66p.You suggest that an decrease in price is likely.Any viewers here would like to see your estimates as a counter proposition.

Hi AdieH
If it makes you happy you may call me whatever pseudonym you wish should you feel that doing so could alter the course of the SP.
However please be assured that I only have one name, and thats often one too many at the end of the month when the Visa bill comes rolling in!
I am glad the current holders are happy, however the 1,000,000. odd sellers yesterday were clearly not, as are those today.
The decorating will be sometime off as its structural work at the moment and thats on stop due to water seepage, but thank you for inquiring.
Have a great day too.

With respect Sir, I really admire your dedicated tenacity, therefore may I direct you to the recent progress of MLR and to the solid base that it is now working from.
I feel this could be a very safe, secure opportunity to at least triple your funds short term.
Good luck with your investments, as we all need that.

Now marked down further.
Come on chaps I can't be that wrong that something is badly wrong here!
I guess Shares Mag may need a slight rethink or a new lemming keeper and even Mr Worthington's pepe talk to AdieH seem to have a had a further negative effect on the SP.
Perhaps the Daily Telegraph was right, as was the AIM and OFEX.
They usually are pretty good with stocks.
Have a great evening.

AdieH with respect to you, your most admirable indefatigable effiorts and all other shareholders.
Sometimes writing to the boss is a good thing, other times its not.
A good CEO will always have a feel for which way the SP will go.
Mr Worthington would hardly tell you anything negative no matter what the prevailing influences may be.
I believe that Mr Worthington's interests, like that of most CEOs, with a few exceptions such as CFE perhaps, would be more favourably disposed to appeasing his major shareholders.
Please take care, as doing my calculations for Proteus, I find that COH is currently trading, and has been for some time, way, way above its intrisic value, and that being so it could justifiably mean that it could easily fall a lot further before finding such value.
Have a nice evening.

Since writing the above I have just been alerted of the late recording of massive sells. I had done for the evening and switched the computer off, only to have a mob alert to go to my email box.
I sincerely trust, for all the small punters in this share at anything over 40p, that this is not as bad as it looks.
I reserve further comments until the morning,

Good morning chaps.
I really dont want to stick in my twopennethworth over these sells.
However I feel that it needs to be said, in refernce with my post above numbered 752, that it would be incrediable if Mr Worthington did not have a idea these sells were coming.
Furthermore, if I were he, my shareholders would have had an RNS on the matter, for clarity's sake, long before now.
I sincerely trust the damage is limited, but as stated earlier, COH is still seeking, and yet to find its bottom line.

From iii this morning.
Re: Empik Gonner2003
Makes perfect sense Kimboy, would expect RNS soon to confirm details... Immediate future depends on who will pick the shares up... The brokers and board seem confident of the future and that is good enough for me...
That may be, but the confidence in Mr Worthington must be somewhat dented now, considering the recent reassurences you posted from him.
Would you not agree?

I would have thought, that seeing how Mr Worthington normally is very responsive with his replies to his shareholders' questions, and he must have a ton today, the the lack of a statement on the biggest sale todate of COH shares could prove indicative of a big problem brewing.
If, as is being banned about one the financial BBs, it is indeed EMPIK that has dumped, this would signal, I believe, far bigger problems as Empik would not be dumping a good thing, would they?
Again simply postulating, if there are problems in the wind then these must be new and grave, otherwise it would have made sence for EMPIK to have dumped at the time of the placing at 41p, No one is going to just waste revenue!
Empik is there, in the middle of it, an indigenous company who have been around for years with a finger on the Polish/Eastern Euopean business pulse.
Dont forget also Mr Worthington, and another director, dumped at what is considered to be an unfavorable time-
The total dumped could equate to both EMPIK and possibly Mr Curries' shares, however all we can do is to guess wildly in the dark, in the absence of a company statement!

AdieH please for the sake of other its time for sanity not your crazy posts such as this from iii
Re: Re: Gonner2003
4 million sell just gone through, def dumping of stock and it would make sense its empik... RNS should confirm this, doesn't change the company just direction...
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
It does change more than the direction which is obviously now down, and possibly out!
Any fool can see this company is in trouble.
I have been telling you all for ages it has no intrinsic value.
Please prove me wrong instead of what are now just your silly ramps.

AdieH you are conspicuous through your absence on this BB today old chap!
Is there nothing to report from Mr Worhtington, seeing, as it apparent, the copious correspondance that you have been used to having from the company?
Could you kindly keep us informed as to what is going on please.
Many many thanks, David10B

If you look at the trades 4 million was a sell this indicates possibly Empik might have dumped their shares, they bought at about 10p average, the rest are sells/buys normal days trading... Hopefully we get an RNS soon for an update on holdings. Once EMPIK removed we can get on with business... Expect an RNS soon for an update... Regards.

Thank you AdieH but I think we should have had a RNS a lot earlier than now.
In reality don't you?
I am looking at the trades over the past two days, they add up to a lot more that the 4 million your refer to.
Something is very wrong here!
