    What do we all think then?

    in Football Index

    About this matching engine?


    I am in 2 minds.


    a) Sit it out and see what happens

    b) List the port, sell up and then come back when both the market place settles and the world settles.


    In the meantime, have a bit of fun on Footstock.


    Just dunno.


    I have a port of £11k which is nearly £3k profit...........just stuck to what to do.


    In regards the need for the money, only need £4.5k of it for around Oct/Nov time when the house is built to pay a few bits and bobs off. So in no rush for it.

    I’m not on twitter and there’s been talk before of FI listening to twitter(twits?) before when things need or are changing. What’s the general consensus on there if anyone is on it?

    Most of the big twitter accounts are happy, some took a day or two to get their heads round it. A big account is saying it'll work but only if married with a bonus or div rise (exactly what I think too)

    I am playing around with notification settings at the moment. Thought I would chuck in this hand grenade, that might melt the other forum, and use it to edit my settings. Will shares purchased through ME be eligible for IPD's? Nothing in T&C's. We all are assuming they are, but if you buy a pre owned car you don't expect the warranty or new buyer offers? Discuss and I can edit my settings. Thanks.

    My three targets are Eden Hazard, Moutinho and Ramos. Plan to put in three bids, see if any accepted, if so probably cancel other 2 and go back for more of the successful bid. Also considering a very high risk Ben Arfa bid at rock bottom price. Double my 500 hold to 1,000 if successful, then market list my original 500.

    Yeh I think to stimulate it and make it an occasion and not risk an embarrassing tumbleweed moment I think FI will add some dazzle to it. A divs rise makes most sense. A bonus would still do the job. Only concern is I think they sounded like the 2 month no commission period was the bonus offer.l to be included with it... Hopefully they realise that won't be enough to really get people buying.

    I think Bruno. Maybe even Neymar? Il stick to proven div winners and see if anyone needs out on them. But maybe it's the players around £1 where holders were planning to IS so are now desperate to sell (no one plans to IS the big price players surely, so should be more long term money tied up in them)

    I have the same thoughts as you - go for proven divs winners, and buy at a far lower price. Neymar is a great shout, provided he doesn’t move to Barca. Bruno is likely to return a fair bit, but there will also be a lot of traders who want out and are willing to sell at £8 rather than hold for weeks, or instant sell at £6 for example. I win because I get a £9.50 player at £8, they win by selling and getting more than IS price

    that being said, it may be a great time to go for Kroos, De Bruyne or Salah who have been dropping for months, or even the ones on @Turbo thread who are in lower divisions, coming up in the summer but being held by impatient traders/ones who need the money in their back pocket. Imagine getting Kelvin Phillips at Leeds for £1.50, or even Kleindeist at 50p...

    Have they gave us an exact date when it’s coming in? I’m not sure what to expect with order books, if your sitting with a cash balance it’s probably all good. I’ll just have to sit tight for now.

    You would think they would have an exact date considering it’s a big change. Are we due a dividend review/increase? You’d like to think the dividends will be increased as it looks like a bigger risk to our holds.

    Does anyone have players in mind for cheap bids, I'm thinking Bruno, Tanganga and possibly Rashford if I can get for 75% of cost price.

    Same here, I'm not buying til then, if at all. Except I got duped by a headline and put all my div wins on Saul as thought he was a Utd done deal! Cash balance us never safe! I have to withdraw it to my bank.

    I am looking forward to the launch of ME. I am planning on trying to top up on 3 of my existing holds, I know their potential, risks and recent price movements. Only problem I have is I am now building up a cash balance from zero, up to £123, so this announcement has stopped me trading which seems counter intuitive. Hope a date is announced soon.

    Hey, turbo here, only really commenting to see if it works. May as well make it relevant though, my thoughts are that it will increase liquidity in general but that it will create a lot of cash traps and taking a punt on a player will be a very different

    Very similar thoughts. I feel like my port has taken a hit as I doubt we will sell at market price so easily. Some players will be really hard to shift.


    It needs to coincide with a div rise to make long term holding wothwhile, otherwise it suits the short termers more.


    Lots on twitter saying its the best announcement ever... Yet ticker didn't support this?
