I'm afraid I'm still undecided. I would have liked the official announcement to be much clearer. For example, I would like to know how long the flexi tickets are valid for. If it's only for the current season, they are of little value to season ticket holders except possibly as gifts.

Also, I note that there will be an invitation to the AGM but there is no mention of voting rights at the AGM. I know that some people think this is irrelevant - but it isn't really. Shares are shares, and they come with rights; or they should do. Otherwise, as Simon has said, the £287.50 is little more than a donation. Redskin is correct in saying that it's everyone's opportunity to participate - but everyone has had that opportunity for several weeks. It could be argued that the only difference with this "share issue" is the giving of a framed document and other rewards of varying value.

Am I correct in thinking that a genuine share issue should have a prospectus?

Just my thoughts and worries. You don't have to share them!
