The three of us combined; me, you, and Mista own 0.25% of the company.
A stake worth $5m just a few years ago
Well I agree with yourself Ogg and MistaTea,
If we need a few extra to get a board seat I could pick up another mil or 2 if that would give us the ability get a seat on the board as both your arguments are good.
I don’t need the money out from the stock I’m just frustrated watching the sentiment and I’m happy to do stuff but it has to be for the right reasons.
I don’t know how it works with board seats and shareholding. But if there’s a way to do it you have my support.

Nominate Mista. He knows the company better than anyone and is in it for the long term.
I personally have 7 figures in Sky, if they have nothing decent to say at their EOY meeting i'm out; more opportunities else where. I'll lose a lil bit as im @14.9 on 1.2m shares but i'll chalk this up as a learning, there is a hell of lot going for this company & could be fantastic its undervalued IMO; but everything seems against them including market sentiment. So we shall see bring on Sept 10th.
When using the phrase “seven figures” most people are referring to money, not numbers of shares. Seven figures in Tesla, for exampe, is quite different to seven figures in Sky otherwise.

Far more qualified than Handley
LOL.
I remember meeting Blair Woodbury in his office. I ended up drawing a diagram on his whiteboard to explain a concept around value creation/perception and why Sky finds itself in the situation it does today (a Kiwi brand disliked by many Kiwis).
He may have just wanted to get rid of me by that point and humoured me with the old “I’ve just learnt something new today” - but it did actually seem to grab his attention.
So if I get on the Board the first thing I am doing is drawing that stuffing diagram for them!!!
The downtrend is so entrenched it will really take something miraculous to change the trend ....and there seems little on the horizon
Once a market pariah always a market pariah
Apple was unloved for a long time. Look at it now. There are so many other examples of companies / stocks that have turned around. So not sure your thesis is correct.

Last time I had a beer with Blair he said a dude had tried to explain something on his whiteboard -- saved it he did -- showed me this and asked if I understood it
