The other interesting point is that there are zero/zilch CIC members complaining about the way it all works. My guess from that is that all are happy with the system as is.
This is because it is
sooooooo much better than when we started for a whole number of reasons

With respect I think some perspective is needed here. We are talking £15 out of a share club holding of over £5k.
To take it a step further, it is actually less than £1 per CIC member. Less then the sort of money you would pay for a cup of coffee if you could buy one in the High Street at the moment.

That is because you are missing the point again. It is not about £15 (not that the Investment Club can afford to throw money away, pennies or pounds!) it is about a process; a mistake repeated time and time again can become very expensive!
Did you not ever hear "Look after the pennies and the pounds will look after themselves?" obviously not!

Respectively it is you that has missed the point. No mistake was made. I appreciate this does not support the narrative you are driving but the fact of the matter is we made an informed decision that achieved the goal we were seeking to achieve. Yes on this occasion if we had held the share a bit longer we could have made some more money but equally we could have done that and it go down instead. This is the same for each and every share we hold and decide to sell regardless of the ex dividend situation. We could look at every occasion where in hindsight we sold too early because the price has subsequently gone up but hindsight is a wonderful thing. Conversely we have plenty of situations where in hindsight we should have sold earlier and crystallized a larger profit. On this occasion a balanced and considerd decision was made and club members achieved the objective wanted.
