Shareholdings 12:24 - Aug 25 with 3270 views | samueloneils | Has anyone noticed that the shareholding numbers per the latest Companies House details dated 28 June don`t add up to the total shares issued? There is a shortfall of some 40,000 shares. We need to know at this dangerous time exactly who owns the shares in our club. By my reckoning there are 502,957 issued shares per the last published accounts. I have ploughed through the Companies House lists which show Andrew Kilpatrick 110,000 The Americans 74,685 Andrew Kelly 58,250 Graham Morris 31,772 David Kilpatrick 22,397 Geoff Brierley 14,387 Graham Rawlinson 14,250 David Bottomley 12,960 The Dale Trust 12,625 Tony Pockney 12,500 The Fitton Sisters 7,538 Andrew Hilton 5,200 Chris Cheetham 5,000 Robin Mathieson 5,000 Mark Smith 5,000 Colin Parton 5,000 These total 80% of the total shares. It is easy to see where the famous 42% control figure came from (Messrs Kilpatrick/Americans/Bottomley and Rawlinson) but otherwise the remaining 20% of the holding comes from 8 individual holders of between 1,000 and 5,000 shares and totalling 8% of the total shares, and then a cool 303 of the rest of us holding under 1,000 shares, and which only represents 4% of the total. Stick with me I`m nearly there! The remaining 8% are not listed. A clue- Jim Marsh is listed as having disposed of his 35,000 shares in April this year, but nobody is shown as having bought them. Likewise John Faulks with his 6,360 shares on the same date. All this is public information on the Co House site. Any answers? | ![](/images/avatars/0.gif) | | | ![](/images/icons/ignore-user.png) |

Don`t worry- I remember Ray Aspden joining the club- same time as Arnold Kendall , Jimmy Anders and Frank Lord were in their heyday. And the mound beside the stand. And the dodgy old football buses! I was concerned simply in view of recent events and the possibility of a repetition re the shares. I don`t see that the Companies House record is wrong though. In 50 years of dealing with them I have never known them make a mistake. | ![](/images/avatars/0.gif) | | ![](/images/icons/ignore-user.png) |

If you've looked on Companies House you'll see it's all correct and accounted for. No mistakes or lost shares. | ![](/images/avatars/0.gif) |

Companies House have not correlated onto one page the various Directorships under a certain David Roger Bottomley. | ![](/images/avatars/1221.gif) | | ![](/images/icons/ignore-user.png) |

Tell you what, someone admitting a mistake is about as good as it gets on here, so hope you stick around. It could have been worse, you might have claimed having an orange away shirt in 1994 was a good idea. | ![](/images/avatars/1212.gif) |
