@MrWh1te said in Official post announcement thread - V2:

@Westy My guess (and that is all it is) would be they do something like a discount on the % of commission for people that trade a set amount

I think that would be a good idea.

@Advinculas-Index
I had an email from Kim wondering if it would be possible to chat on the phone about any issues I was having. If I get time tomorrow I’ll get in touch with her. Nice to see they are actually interested in our thoughts.

@The-FIG
An enjoyable read thanks.

@Dr-Jan-Itor, @ChazFI123

I was always surprised when he left Aberdeen at 17 and moved to Bournemouth. I thought it was too soon, and he was only moving for money.

With hindsight, I now see it as a talented, independent and driven young man looking to set his own path and not take the well trodden easy path of joining Celtic/Rangers.

I would not be surprised if he ended up moving abroad. Either way, he is in a very strong position for deciding his own future from both a financial and footballing perspective.

I see far more positives than negatives to holding Fraser at present. 👍

I couldn’t agree more especially regarding heading to Glasgow. I’ve lost count of the amount of promising young Scottish players that have disappeared into oblivion there.

@Andy said in Teji Savanier injury:

@Woody Ahh ok I get you. Is he a guaranteed starter for Montpellier? Do you know how long it is until he is back fit and playing?

He’ll be guaranteed to start once he’s back to his best. The last I heard it was mid October so hopefully soon. I’ve held him since June and he’s been slowly creeping up.

@Andy said in Teji Savanier injury:

Is he still injured or is he playing? His price as risen by quite a few pence in the last 24hrs

I think it’s people buying in for the dividend review.

I don’t find the forum negative at all, sure there are threads where people are critical or maybe looking for a few different opinions which imo isn’t a bad thing. I’ve posted a couple myself when things aren’t quite going to plan for me and I’ve always had sensible advice. I’m not on twitter but I can imagine it’s pretty negative on there at times.
I wouldn’t be on FI if it wasn’t for the forum as I find it a great help.

@Vespasian32 said in Footie:

Anyone else surmised by the low numbers posted since the div review announcement.

Its sensible to wait for the announcement and then act... But when has the index ever behaved sensibly before?

It kinda feels like people are waiting on the big changes. Me personally have a small investment now but I do have a cash balance after I shat the bed and sold my port. My plan is to reinvest after the announcement if things look promising going forward.

@MickTurbo said in Good luck to those who shit the bed yesterday!:

@Woody same mate, its crossed my mind to just buy back my port which was stacked for the old game but weve had some big fuck yous from the index lately and I do not wanna be suckered into yet another one

Yes it’s left a bitter taste with me and the review might be a false dawn.

@MickTurbo said in Good luck to those who shit the bed yesterday!:

@Gazz127 its gonna be hard for me but these are the reasons why I'm going to hold off until I see what the changes actually are. But yes mate seeing all the green is very very frustrating at the minute.

People will say darkest before the dawn and they are correct but I've been asking for some kind of engagement from FI but they've sat on their hands and waited for a tipping point. Havent really processed how I feel about that yet but there will certainly be others in my position

I’m in the same position as yourself mick, I’ve got a small amount that I’ll play about with but the money that hits my bank tomorrow won’t get reinvested unless I can see a change.
