Unless they sort out the customer service issues these shares will crash back down to where they was before.

Still think M&S is a good bet medium to long term. They have great success with their food operations and could challenge Waitrose. The clothing stores, not sure there's market anymore for such large stores. Selling other quality brands like Clarkes shoes could help. The ocado relationship is the saviour of the business, this could really grow big time.
