THE PREMIER OIL Shareholders Association yesterday said merger talks with Paladin Resources would be bad news for Premier, after reports that the two oil companies are discussing a pounds 220m reverse takeover. The association, whichwants to change Premier's management, said the plans would hand over the company "on the cheap at arguably a third to a half of underlying value". It backs realising value by selling assets in South-east Asia and making board changes. Premier shares closed up 1p at 22.25p.
