I forgot I started this one off,wish it had kept that way-lol
Got a long way to get me money back on this one (33p rings a bell,don't dare look...my worst investment of all time).
Have no real interest in this any more,but something appears to be happening at the moment!
All I can say is that it's a good chart if you want to go sledging!!!

Why was Driscoll in the US?... Perhaps...under the direction of J Christopher Entertainment, Galleon's LA based studio
Why Has Keith been Busy in London Meetings?... Perhaps...internationally renowned soccer stars who have already indicated their desire to be involved.
Can Galleon expect revenue from this property?... "O YES"....the multiple revenue streams unlocked by this property would deliver six figure revenues as early as 2006.
Is this likely to take a long time?...."O NO".....The project is moving ahead with such momentum that a concurrent UK & US launch is looking likely.
THE GREEN AQUISITION WAS MADE AT 15p PER SHARE.... (GALLEON SHARES)... IF IT STARTS PRODUCING REVENUE QUICKLY, AND THESE ARE GOING TO BE SIX FIGURE SUMS QUICKLY, THEN THIS HAS THE POTENTIAL TO FLY ABOVE THE 15p MARK VERY VERY QUICKLY.
Galleon, the intellectual property owner, developer and manager is delighted to announce the introduction to its portfolio of a new intellectual property, which has been developed by the Company's recently acquired subsidiary, Green and Dunne Ltd.
The property, provisionally titled `Project Sport,' would consist initially of 52 half hour episodes incorporating animation and live action aimed at boys. It is anticipated that the property, involving a global sports theme, will feature internationally renowned soccer stars who have already indicated their desire to be involved. It has been developed using UK and US writers and animators under the direction of J Christopher Entertainment, Galleon's LA based studio. Early response to the property from key broadcasters in the UK and US has been extremely positive and the Directors believe that the property has the potential to become a global perennial brand. The project is moving ahead with such momentum that a concurrent UK & US launch is looking likely. In this event the multiple revenue streams unlocked by this property would deliver six figure revenues as early as 2006.
Galleon will shortly be showcasing the property at MIPTV in Cannes in order to get further feedback from broadcasters. Alongside Project Sport, Galleon will be marketing its strongest portfolio of properties to date for broadcaster consideration. This portfolio includes Oggies, Astro Knights, Malcolm and Professor Winklebottom's Universe.
The Project Sport property was conceived by Stephen Green and Len Dunne, CEO and Managing Director of Galleon. The pair have worked together both at Hasbro and Chorion. At Hasbro Stephen Green was responsible for license acquisition of entertainment properties and out licensing of Hasbro brands while Len Dunne managed Action Man, Transformers and Batman. At Chorion, where the pair was part of the management team responsible for the turnaround of the business, Stephen Green managed global marketing operations while Len Dunne was responsible for TV animation development.
James Driscoll MBE, Chairman of Galleon, and a creator of a global success story in the Shoe People, said,
"Galleon acquired Green and Dunne Ltd because, in Stephen Green and Len Dunne, we have the creativity and expertise to profitably take intellectual properties from conception to market. The new show is looking great, we have enormous confidence in its potential to be a global success story and we are looking forward to sharing the story with broadcasters at MIPTV."

from the iii board
being quoted 6.53p to sell....
Driscoll is in the office today, but you are likely to be told it is Keith you need to talk to.
Keith is rounding up business meetings that he has been attending all last week.
He will be in the office tomorrow, and anyone at all having doubts about whether to get in, or average down, I urge you to call him. He is a very nice amiable chap, and will not fill you with flannel, but will answer what he can within the constraints of divulging price sensitive info.
Look at the facts... MM's walked this down on minimal trades... Loads and loads in the pipeline. Look at the figures being talked about in latest offering. Green aquired at 15p per Galleon share.
It has been walked down far far to much, and should be around the 15p mark with no news. A bit of good news, and it should be moving up from 15p.
If you are on losses, you could have reduced those losses by averaging down, and its not to late to do so..
Of course, I will put in my opinion, but my opinion is that of someone who has picked up the phone and spoken to them.

Not looking for sympathy, it was quite clearly a bad decision to invest in GON. I don't need to deramp the stock, it's done a very good job of that itself! However, I am quite happy to see the SP rise, although I can't really see that the recent rise is proof that anything has changed. A bit of turnover and profitability would make all the difference. We shall see.

Im in this one this morning im kicking myself I had to wait till I had liquidated some funds. 10p by the weekend seems plausible, the market cap is so small that any contracts have the ability to double the M-Cap instantly

its up 16% already, my target for lunchtime is 25% any views?

and down 12% so far today. Looks like a pump and dump routine. Couldn't see any reason for the recent rise, except increased BB activity. A new thread was created here on AM and you have to wonder why when there already was one. Additional threads = additional exposure. Apologies for being cynical, but looks like a fool's rally, hope to be proven wrong. -25% by lunchtime?
Edit: Now down 18%

Being ramped heavily in the Zoo and no doubt other places, might be a repeat pump n dump. Results were not particularly good. Best of luck if you dive in Baza, you might need it! However, I am particularly cynical as I have just sold this dog with quite a loss and find it hard to believe it can ever come good.

Rumours of Directors buying.

The market cap is so low on this share that when it hits the black this should rocket. This is a dangerous share as it moves radically but its bounced three times now from 5-5.5p so hopefully this time its on its way north! A lot of buying at the end should at least see a tick up in the morning again

Galleon turning tides of losses Jun 29 2005
By Steve Pain, Deputy Business Editor
Galleon Holdings, the Stourbridge-based new media group headed by entrepreneur Jim Driscoll, has cut pre-tax losses for the six months to March.
The company, which experienced growth in all areas of the business, yesterday said that pre-tax losses had narrowed from 509,000 to 197,000 as sales rose 18 per cent to 553,000.
Chairman Mr Driscoll told shareholders: "Galleon's strategic objective to create, acquire, develop and own a significant portfolio of Intellectual Property Rights (IPR) continues to attract interest within the industry."
He added: "The company remains focused on unlocking value in entertainment and product based IPR and during the last six months it has succeeded in this regard. "With the arrival of our new management team of Stephen Green and Len Dunne in January Galleon has the skills in-house to manage a piece of IPR through the whole of its lifecycle.
"Our strengthened skill base has undertaken a complete review of our IPR portfolio during this period.
"The current catalogue of properties includes Oggies, Professor Winklebottom's Universe, Malcolm, Astro Knights, Peppers Patrol and our latest property, Goalactika-442, created by Stephen Green and Len Dunne.
"As a result of this review conducted in consultation with J Christopher Entertainment, our Los Angeles animation studio, we have decided to prioritise and reposition some of the properties.
"We have taken back the rights for Astro Knights from Jaguar Media Entertainment as they were unable to progress with this project in a timeframe that was satisfactory to us.
"The rounded IPR experience that is now within Galleon has allowed us to assume full control of this project.
"We have also put into development a new sports fantasy kids TV show, Goalactika-442.
"This project has had a positive response from key broadcasters in the UK, US and Japan and we are now finalising its development with a view to going into production by the end of the year."
Croco, Galleon's promotions sourcing division, also made progress. "Our client list has grown significantly with a strong mix of new and repeat business," said Mr Driscoll.
" Orders of more than 60 million units have been achieved in the period and we are currently looking to secure an increase in business for the coming year."
A4, Galleon's publishing company, and Probe Media, its database marketing arm, also saw significant improvement.
"Our new sales and editorial teams have delivered increases in global advertising sales compared with the previous period from last year.
"We are attracting new business from territories outside of the UK and are achieving a much higher ratio of forward bookings.
"This allows for more efficient and profitable planning for future issues of our flagship publications," Mr Driscoll added. "Given that the growth of Croco, A4 and Probe Media is organic and sustainable I am confident that the turnaround of the group will continue during the course of 2005," he said.
