My mate Tim Levine has been in touch. Well, when I say mate, that’s what he tells
me he is, so who am I to doubt him?
His email was suspiciously upbeat, and Tim seems a
little too overexcited for someone who is up at 5.48am in the morning, which makes me suspect he’s been smoking something.
“I know you were expecting to hear back
from me much earlier but I didn't want to get back to you empty-handed. I
finally found the perfect stock for you and I am confident that it will make
you some serious profit.”
[I wasn't expecting to hear from you at all actually Tim, but I'm all ears...]
“Remember the one I told you about in November
of last year right? “
[Er, in all honesty Tim, no…. I’m beginning
to doubt this email is actually for me]
"You did very well on it and I think this
PRFC stock will do the same for your portfolio again."
[Yup, definitely not me, my old mate]
"I have to let you know though that I'm not
the only one who found out about PRFC today."
[I Googled it - can Tim really be talking
about Pershore Rugby Football Club?]
"A few of my colleagues are aware as well
and they are telling their friends and family about it so I must advise you to
move fast if you want to buy it."
[Not really sure I want to own a rugby club, Tim]

"I think it's trading at just around 15
cents right now, if you wait too long it might be at 30 or even higher and at
that time I won't be able to safely advise you to buy it. You can buy as many shares as you can first
thing at market open on Friday or worst case scenario buy it on Monday but move
fast."
"I know you don't care about what the
company does"
[Not true, I do Tim, I really do. They have Pershore Juniors & Mini's & Pershore Women's Touch Rugby too and they all play at Piddle Park.
Seriously, there is such a place, I kid you not. And ironically, according to the Club’s news, it’s been too waterlogged to play on….make of that, what you will]

"because you know I've done all the due
diligence for you already but PRFC is actually amazing and I think it will do
much better than even the one I told you about a few months ago."
[I'm impressed by Tim's enthusiasm for grass roots sports in rural Worcestershire although still a little doubtful of the investment potential]
"One of the company's divisions offers
mobile software solutions for the gaming industry. The mobile apps allow
customers to play lottery and other games of chance and skill on their
smartphones.
The software is extremely advanced and
could be the backbone of all mobile casinos in the future.
It is expected that the US will legalize
online gaming in the near future and this could catapult PRFC to new highs
however even without that the company's software is extremely valuable in the
rest of the world and could become extremely profitable."
[It's an unusual sideline for a local rugby club, Tim... Are you sure you have done your research? Or have you been on your funny cigarettes again?]
"Something big is definitely brewing at the
company."
[Hardly surprising, they are a rugby club after all. Probably a few pints of Piddles' Puddle, or Pershore's Old Peculiar or something?]
"I heard something about buy out rumors but I don't have all the
details yet I will keep you posted over the coming days or weeks."
"Anyway I won't bore you with much more
blabber, [well, I was yawning a bit through the last bit Tim, but I had hoped you hadn't noticed] but if you have a second do check out PRFC."
[I did but I'm still not entirely convinced that you have...]
"By the way I will be
expecting a nice gift from you once you make fat bank on this one and a nice
dinner with the wives is in order.
[Are you indeed? Some nice cufflinks perhaps? A bottle of vintage Port and some fine cigars? A sense of reality?]
It's been too long since we last spent a
good evening over a bottle of wine.
[Must have been a very big bottle as I still don't remember you Tim....]
I was going to call you to tell you about
PRFC but I figured youre probably asleep now with those crazy shifts you've
been working. Take care and call me if there's anything.
[Yeah, my crazy 9am to 5pm work life. Living on the edge, me.
But in all fairness Tim, had you called me, obviously off your head, at 5.48am to try to persuade me to invest in a small town rugby club, based in the heart of the West Midlands, you may have got short thrift ]
"Talk soon
Your favorite friend and only broker :)"
[Tell you what, don't call me Tim, I'll call you....]
