I hear your arguement goldfinger but I'm not convinced. When Woollies went bust HMV expected to pickup the revenue but didn't. Alot of Sports equipment now a days is sold online or through specialist stores. The only exception I think is shoes where we like to try them on before buying. Best of luck with this one, but personally I think they need to become more online focused using their retail outlets as collection points to compete...

SPD & JJB are often very close to each other in out of town locations (& sometimes in town), so there will undoubtedly be some duplication of stores, nonetheless the purchase price paid by SPD for JJB (£24m I think?) was very cheap.
edit - and they are pretty well identical in concept, so I can't see why there is such a difference in performance - apart, of course, from management.

Does anyone know how many JJB sites were Rented/Leasehold and how many Freehold owned?

Hope some of you guys got SPD, moving on up to FTSE 100 status.

Yep sent you a short message on twitter SC.......... snap. Like U said good entry point on the chart.
Cant do anymore characters it freezes up on me.
Got a chap coming out to have a look tomorrow. Ironicaly it started 4 weeks back when Virgin increased my speed from 20 to 30 MG or whatever. Slowed all my PC down.
Wondering if my short term memory cant take the extra speed and needs boosting.
