I guess someone is trying to take us over so we have to publicly announce how many shares we have issued and their value?

What it means, is that THFC has due diligence to it's shareholders to keep them informed of the share price, when they have received preliminary offers for investments or takeovers (which we all, sort of know about), so they can judge the merits of the deal.

Introduction

The Code is designed principally to ensure that shareholders in an offeree
company are treated fairly and are not denied an opportunity to decide on
the merits of a takeover and that shareholders in the offeree company of
the same class are afforded equivalent treatment by an offeror. The Code
also provides an orderly framework within which takeovers are conducted.
In addition, it is designed to promote, in conjunction with other regulatory
regimes, the integrity of the financial markets...

WHEN AN ANNOUNCEMENT IS REQUIRED

An announcement is required:
(a)
when a firm intention to make an offer is notified to the board of
the offeree company by or on behalf of an offeror, irrespective of the
attitude of the board to the offer;
(b)
immediately upon an acquisition of any interest in shares which
gives rise to an obligation to make an offer under Rule 9.1. The
announcement that an obligation has been incurred should not be
delayed while full information is being obtained; additional information
can be the subject of a later supplementary announcement;
(c)
when, following an approach by or on behalf of a potential offeror to
the board of the offeree company, the offeree company is the subject of
rumour and speculation or there is an untoward movement in its share
price;
(d)
when, after a potential offeror first actively considers an offer
but before an approach has been made to the board of the offeree
company, the offeree company is the subject of rumour and speculation
or there is an untoward movement in its share price and there are
reasonable grounds for concluding that it is the potential offeror’s
actions (whether through inadequate security or otherwise) which have
led to the situation;
(e)
when negotiations or discussions relating to a possible offer are
about to be extended to include more than a very restricted number of
people (outside those who need to know in the parties concerned and
their immediate advisers); or
20.5.13
D
3
(f)
when a purchaser is being sought for an interest, or interests,
in shares carrying in aggregate 30% or more of the voting rights of
a company or when the board of a company is seeking one or more
potential offerors, and:
(i)
the company is the subject of rumour and speculation or there
is an untoward movement in its share price; or
(ii)
the number of potential purchasers or offerors approached
is about to be increased to include more than a very restricted
number of people.

Well this one would certainly fit the bill.

As far as I understand, this statement is merely a routine announcement following the declared intention of Cain Hoy to acquire Tottenham Hotspur. Hoy, I believe, has been working on this for almost a year, including approaching minority share holders.

:banghead:

Jokes aside! It seems this could happen. I want to think we could improve with this! But Pompey will always stick in my head " The grass is always greener on the other side" and all that.
