[b][quote="Jinky]Central currently have 424 cabs so are you saying that they will take in another 176 cabs before September 2011 to have 600?[/quote]
It looks like CRT's committee intend to expand the company until City Cabs simply cannot compete on service or discounts. Then of course it's just a matter of absorbing the competition. Now remind me who the competition is?
It's a plan alright but not a very good one.

If I understand this correctly, and I may well not, this very thing happened here with the PH comanies and it worked. We went from about 40+ companies to 8. We know have 2 large companies, 3 medium and 3 small. We only have one small HC company and the rest of them work with PH circuit radios. I think that's how to absorb your competition
If I haven't understood what you mean would you be so good as to explain it to me, preferably without insult

There is a finite number of taxis, Edinburgh has approximately 1400 cabs. While City and Central number around 400 mobiles each, ComCab is perhaps 200-300 strong, the remainder is street cars, and a lot of them don't want to work within a company. That doesn't leave a lot left over assuming your competition is not going to stand idly by and do nothing.
All of this is a smoke screen. The truth is, both companies are losing out to Ph, with the contraction in the economy forcing down their existing work. This is an expand or die scenario for CRT, and we know the boys on the committee don't want to end up back driving taxis for a living.
The trick is, expanding faster than your losses by absorbing or knocking out the competition in the process.

It's got to be said Dougie, you never miss an opportunity to prove you are a complete fecking head case.
If, what I have written is a load of [edited by admin], then why are you the sole dissenter?
Believe or not Dougie, you are one of a few. I don't like making an arse of. I don't know if I pity you,(pity as a forum of judgement), or it's because I feel sorry for you. I feel confused and somewhat uncomfortable about slagging you off. I think I know that, in your heart of hearts. You are a good guy. You are totally deluded but a good guy.
I can see now why John Lawson jumped to your defence. You really do need protecting from yourself.
Dougie, stay away from Taxi Forums.
