So an upward trend. Cheers Chaddy.

Let's just be clear,

Stock market price has no direct correlation to free cash flow a company has to offer a club. A higher stock price is driven by external belief of the company to continue to generate profits over time (ultimately to pay dividends). However that only benefits Venkys if they have a need to raise cashflow from a stock float. 

 

An annology to this I may own a house that is increasing in value over time but day to day I'm broke with nothing to spend. Sure I could sell the house or remortgage but it's a big decision that is strategic and takes time to exicute

 

When you float shares it's usually for a big investment decision that your current share holders can get behind. Not to pay Mark Venus European nights out.

Think this thread needs closing as regards incomings - autumn sales are on.

Lol Stop being so negative!

Show me a company that didn’t have a sharp drop in March. First global lockdown.

Since then they have recovered during a pandemic. They need to stop pretending Venkys are skint, it’s just insulting to people.

Bobby Duncan off to Derby on a free as long as Fiorintina get a decent sell on fee. Could be a shrewd move or he could fall the same way as a lot of young players.

Not often I agree with Chaddy, but since April 2018 it's been in a downtrend, lower highs and lower lows. It has recovered somewhat from the effects of covid, but not to previous levels and certainly nowhere near historic highs

It's Delinho Williamski.

The fabled European scouting network have unearthed him. Exciting times.

Either way, surely the already stupid and idiotic "financial fair play" rules will have to be thrown in the bin? I cannot imagine how it is possible for any club that is not allowed to bring in fans to be generating enough profit to maintain its expenditure without owner support. Not unless you can buy yourself the best lawyers in the business, like City.

Go back and look at Venkys share price before they bought Rovers.

They owe us not the other way around.

And that’s before we get into what they have done to our club.

Exactly. The Football League will have bigger issues to deal with than trying to enforce already convoluted rules in the middle of a pandemic where all clubs incomes will have plummeted.

As ever, he is seemingly "hoping" on the transfer front without being actually told. Im sure he will get full clarity after the window is over.

[yellowsubmarine]

Hope it's just minor setback for Dack. Evans, not sure why is he always injured, but when internationals comes along, he's always fit.

Gallagher - don't think i'm missing him at the moment since Dolan is doing an exceptional job so far

FFP does not prevent owner support. It is designed to prevent losses above a certain level - £39m over 3 years in the case of the Championship.

Taken from that article..

  Quote

 

"We're trying to fill in, not necessary to improve the starting XI, which you hope you can do, but it adds extra competition on the pitch when you add new signings and sometimes someone coming in improves the one you've already got.

"We just want to add some numbers and hopefully that will help us improve."

 

Expand  

This is why we'll never progress with Mowbray, if you're signing players for any other reason than improving the first 11 then what's the point?

We have enough squad fillers as it is.

Don't doubt for one moment they have been a disaster for Rovers, but my comments were purely based on the chart for their shares. Purchasing Rovers didn't take it to the highs of April 2018, nor did Rovers create the down trend since then.
