Re: Back to profit..... Zzzzzz.... My crystal ball didn't predict a downing of a Russian airliner... Bombs in Paris... Superior insight no.... Just maybe a feel for how things may be running. A look inside the books I definitely don't have. Any fool can see that over the past few years the stock has healed its wounds... But somehow you don't see that. TCG is volatile... So ups and downs are normal and also an opportunity to get on and off... Which is exactly what I do. As to me posting at 05:15.... That's my business.... You forget that I work at all funny hours of the day. Oil low debt getting killed off... Dividend around the corner.... I'd say due a BIG bounce over next 6-8 months.... But why do you care... You never put your money in TCG so why offer your "squeaks"? If all you're after is confrontation try somewhere else...
Re: Back to profit..... "Billy no mates.... "Say the bloke posting at 5.15 in the morning LOL.You claimed to have superior insight as an employee and yet recommended the shares before a c. 45% share price collapse. I'm simply making the point that this suggests your views are not especially reliable.
Re: Back to profit..... Averaged in at 115p... I said I thought the results would be good. I think seeing that TCG is now profitable is a good result.... But no doubt some will say differently. The backdrop hasn't been so favourable due to Russian civil aircraft downing and Paris attacks but we didn't see them coming, or did we Orchard? Unfortunately the world is becoming a more dangerous place.... Brokers will be turning to future prospects for TCG and they look brighter.... Stronger books... Debt free soon as well I think. The tone in the press is also more positive towards TCG. I think 2016 will be challenging due to competition but manageable. Just got to get through the winter without too many delays etc. If you're feeling lonely this Christmas come and haunt us Orchard... Billy no mates....
Re: Back to profit..... But you did strong recommend people buy when the shares were above 180p, so you have a credibility issue in continually saying it's upside from here.
Back to profit..... Well now in the Black again. Get ready for a re-rating.... Oil at $41-43.... and likely to stay low. TCG still cutting debt fast... Dividend due to be paid on 2016 results in 2017... The ship has turned.
Re: Quiet "without laughing at other people's misfortunes when the share does fall and I think we'd all be OK.... my personal view on you on here now is that you should move on taunt and laugh at people elsewhere..... "Thanks for sharing your personal view. You're free to do that and even free to be rude to me and about me if you wish. I have the same freedom. If you can't accept that I'd suggest you're in the wrong place and should disappear yourself.It's not someone's "misfortune" if they're bullish about a share and it goes down it's the risk they accepted when they bought the share. I don't laugh at that in any case, I laugh if they say something stupid, such as claiming to have superior knowledge to plebs like me because they work for TCG. How did that work out to date?As for showing appropriate responses to people's misfortunes I still think that the person who posts here and says he works for the company showed a complete absence of any decency or compassion when he described the death of a young family - for which this company was responsible - as being unfortunate because it had pushed the value of his shares down.So no, I won't stop posting here if I wish to comment or even just laugh at dumb comments (like your own). If you don't like it just place me on ignore. What of any value have you ever added?
Re: Quiet your latest responses are even more revealing - sorry I don't buy it and nor do other people. You're a wolf in sheep's clothing.... your posts have been taunting, joking about being proven right or whatever....laughing at other people's misfortunes.... if you were posting informed opinion on the share (e.g. commentary) we'd be reading about cashflow issues, lack of vision, fuel prices or whatever..... so if you're going to be negative (and you're right you are well within your rights to be 'negative' on a share) why don't you just stick to the facts and give your reason without laughing at other people's misfortunes when the share does fall and I think we'd all be OK.... my personal view on you on here now is that you should move on taunt and laugh at people elsewhere.....
Re: Quiet Isn't that the point? You think they will go up; I don't. This forum is for us to exchange those views. For the little guy in the leather jacket and boots to suggest your view is legitimate because you're bullish and own share and mine is not and therefore don't hold is indeed intolerant on a share discussion board.And you can't escape the fact that my view is - so far - more correct than your own, which should count for something.
Re: Quiet Dear Orchard. As a dispassionate observer of TCG, I looked back over your recent postings out of curiosity. Intolerant? Fascist? You are correct that few people appreciate those personality traits. Why not take a well earned rest from the board over the next few years while TCG recovers.Best wishes.Mr Ed.
Re: Quiet " if you don't hold any shares or don't rate this share then why are you hanging around"So your view is that the only people who should express a view are those who own the shares (by definition bulls or they would sell) and those with a bullish view? And you think that's an intelligent contribution on a share discussion board, do you?If you only want to see views which accord with your own, send yourself an email. And you appear to have missed the fact that my bearish views have been rather better than the bullish views of the 'insider'p.s. if you don't like reading my posts put me on ignore because your sort of intolerance only motivates me to post more frequently. No one likes a fascist.

NEW ARTICLE: Thomas Cook in profit, but terror risk remains "For the first time in five years, LSE:TCG:Thomas Cook is profitable after paying its tax bill. Strength in its UK and Northern European operations drove performance in the 12 months to September, and winter bookings are being snapped up faster ..."[link]
Results Overall I'm happy with the results. Some positive sounding statements and good to see the debt coming down further. The only disappointing element for me is that I'd have liked to see dividends in the second half of 2016 but not too much longer to wait until early 2017 for them! If it means paying down more debt though, that's fine as it puts the company in a much stronger position going forward.Hopefully we'll see a steady rise through 2016. Keep the faith!
Re: Quiet there's only one chump on this BB my friend and that is you... I think we are all trying to ignore you in the vain hope you're going to do one.... you're a trowl.. an unpleasant individual. My theory on you is that you're either so gutted that you sold and made a loss or you're gutted you didn't get in early enough... if you don't hold any shares or don't rate this share then why are you hanging around like a weirdo?
Quiet The chump who told me that he knew way more about this share and where it has heading than I could ever know because he works for Thomas Cook, he's gone rather quiet, hasn't he?
