You have lost me Ratbox. You say
"I must admit that It's a worry the amounts of shorts we have as they need to cover somewhere ,but perhaps they will just return the shares to the original owner. (My embolding)
As I understand it, the shorter's have borrowed shares from the "original owner". They have then sold these borrowed shares. This leads to a situation where they own zero shares but owe shares to the "original owner".
How can they return shares without buying them on market?
