1. Introduction

Our response to the stimulating paper by Coad et al. (2013) setting out Gambler's Ruin Theory (GRT) has in turn now received its own response from Coad et al. (2015). This discussion is welcome because there is a tendency in the field of entrepreneurship for research to be conducted with little prospect for subsequent testing, attempts at replication and open discussion of implications for theory. Such testing, and verification, using datasets other than that on which the original theory was constructed, is fundamental to advances in understanding and theory building. There are many issues which we could take up in Coad et al.'s (2015) clarifications. We highlight one central issue overlooked by Coad et al. (2015) in their response to Derbyshire and Garnsey (2014). However, we first note areas of agreement between our point of view and that of Coad et al. (2015). In particular, we commend their adoption of analysis methods that examine firms’ growth trajectories rather than the usual reliance in firm growth studies on measures of growth such as mean growth rates that lose information on growth paths and processes, as shown in Garnsey and Heffernan (2005). The new analysis by Coad et al. (2015) now includes the analysis of stable periods and finds these to be the most frequent episodes in firms’ trajectories. The dataset used by Coad et al. and the measurement technique which they used to set out GRT in the first place provide useful corroboration of our position on the extent to which stability or stasis dominates firms' trajectories (Derbyshire and Garnsey, 2014). We made a more complete response to GRT published elsewhere (Derbyshire et al., 2013). There we drew attention to the argument put forward by Sutton (1995) who suggested that a useful theory of firm growth would incorporate strategic and resource factors while attempting to take into account what would happen were growth entirely random. By including random and resource-based factors in their analysis, Coad et al. are moving research in this direction. However, in contrast to Coad et al., we see the concept of complex adaptive systems subject to unpredictable dynamic processes as providing the means by which such a theory can be constructed and we do not see gambling analogies as a useful angle of approach. While Coad et al. (2013) concluded that growth paths occur in an ‘approximately random fashion', rather than in an entirely random fashion, we do not feel that this detracts from our argument that gambling analogies are not likely to provide a useful lens through which to consider entrepreneurship.
