I agree with bigwordsmith. It is very easy to shout from the sidelines when you are not under the real pressure of actually sorting out the problems.
This is a model railway forum, not a forum for investors wishing to make a profit from their Hornby shares. I don't know whether or not Expressblue is a significant shareholder, but I am sure as a shareholder, he would have means of obtaining information from Hornby other than press conferences, and would have a say in the running of Hornby proportional to his investment.
