RANGERRAB 3,757 Posted September 2, 2014 Share Posted September 2, 2014 Aye but try it when there's a blocking stake of 51% in place with no intention of selling or releasing control. Who or what is this 'blocking stake of 51 percent in place' ? 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

jhunter 0 Posted September 2, 2014 Share Posted September 2, 2014 What have they to gain form holding onto a sinking ship mate? Sale and leaseback can make them more money also if they relinquish control , then the true horror of what has went on will be revealed. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

RANGERRAB 3,757 Posted September 2, 2014 Share Posted September 2, 2014 That's what I was thinking I reckon you could call the shots with much less Makes you wonder why DK didn't want to underwrite the shares offer.He'd likely have been in a pretty strong position if he had for a couple of million quid(assuming he already has some sort of shareholding) 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zappa 0 Posted September 2, 2014 Share Posted September 2, 2014 The Easdales hold almost 27% in proxy shares/votes and that doesn't include Laxey with their holdings close to 13%, so it's not difficult to imagine a large controlling block of shareholders above 50% collectively getting together to stop anything they don't want happening from happening. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
the gunslinger 3,366 Posted September 2, 2014 Share Posted September 2, 2014 if no one bought a single share at the share issue except dave king he would have bought 25% for 4 million and would have no control what so ever. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
barca72 440 Posted September 2, 2014 Share Posted September 2, 2014 With the kind of money he says he is willing to invest you would have to reckon he knows what he is doing. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
