I agree with all you said.
Ed cant see he is doing anything wrong, ed and alfresco can blame the markets, blame Ukraine war, blame Israel, blame trump or biden, they wont take responsibility for their incompetence.
They’ll continue to take their inflated salaries but with their limited intellect they will think themselves hard done by as they will be looking at other bosses like Jamie dimon’s salary!
Ed will think, if you don't like the way i am running seed…then sell! Which would be the juvenile attitude I’d expect from him. He should, as been suggested, pause salaries until such a time that they do something right, ed you’ve had enough of us for the destruction you have caused.
Talking about doing the right thing for example. i am in a share that has rose from 2 dollars to hitting a recent high of 24 dollars in the past 12 months. the boss recently sold some shares but i think for 2 years he took no wages. that is defo better. when yoiur in a stock like that yoiu really see how bad seed is and how it treats shareholders. so ed that is an example of how it should be done. you are a shareholder in seed. a rising share price with also a dividend and you get paid yourself. but wages should be stopped for the time being and performance related pay brought in.
The most shocking thing about financial advisers and people like ed is it is all about wages, bonus, commision etc. nothing to do with making clients/ investers money. you could not make it up.
It is like financial advisers. stick a suit on them, make sure the hair and teeth is nice, send them on courses which has nothing to do with making clients money etc. just to do with legal stuff so that the company can not be sued. hey presto. you end up with an ed type knocking on your door in the olden days trying to sell you some crap investment. i bet ed thinks doing a course and going to the master invester crap show with a smart suit on makes him think he is good. when actually good investing is all about timing in right stocks/ secters and having at least some morals if you are taking money off people.
And he would need to keep a bit of the money back so no need to do a raise and dilute at that time and ideal would be bringing in performance related pay. taking good wages per month for this performance crap is simply not on going forward. enough is enough. i am sure ed will have enough to live on for a year or so without taking any wages and then if performance is good he then gets paid wages after that. of course that needs morals. sadly lacking.
The thing is on ex dividend the shares would fall. so ed better get the share price up before ex dividend and then you get both. a rising share price and a dividend before the shares drop. of course he needs to get it right with the money and that means no more investing in mate company etc.
I’m all for a special dividend. It would be great if done at the end of a significant and consistent but back. Even with only 100k a day bought, that’s still 1% of the company a month, but it seems the brokers we have can’t manage such activity every day!
He’d do a raise on ex-dividend day just to feck us
All of the Leap money should be dividend.
I dont want Ed to spend another Fckin penny of my cash to anything else.
It's NOT your money Ed.
It's ours and we want it back.
NOW
Judging by todays sells, yesterday’s 300k buyer only needs to sell another 22,989 shares to exit 😳
The best chat board on LSE! Good days of postings comrades! Best bit of SEED perhaps is this board! Particularly laughed at the 'it's like being another 12 months married' comment! Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha! I couldn't imagine selling up and putting my money in some stock with a dull board.
See George Roach at it again over at Prem, but the volume is there….he sells a story!
Ed sits back gobbles the cash every month, bleeds is dry and creates zero.
This is simply boring, there is nothing to get excited about. It’s been years they have proven what they can and cannot do.
Hoping isn’t an investment strategy, and that’s what we are doing here simply hoping that we can get out!
On receipt on the leap money, Ed’s text message to alfresco will probably read: that’s us set for another few years matey
I do think a dividend is a good idea with some of the leap money. look at it this way. we all get some cash from the dividend and if[ a big if] they somehow can get the share price up to a better level we at last see something positive. and then just sell up. you got a dividend a payment and less losses or a profit depending on your average.
pressing that buy button is so bad it sends shivers down your spine as you think what the **** have i done. i mean look at it. 2.2 to buy and 1.9 on the bid to sell. so whacked on the bell.
So someone might come on here and say give it another 2 years. lol. yeh right.
you know when we sometimes say things like give them another 12 months. well, another 12 months as gone and look at where share price has ended up. it is like being married long term. you give it another 12 months and you still bored as ****.
Longlad. hit the buy button instead of sell. lol.
Poor fecker probably hit the BUY button instead of SELL.
If the sp could close above the 50 dma and with funds on the way it could be worth a trade.
I’m exhausted with the bloody thing
They probably believe a dividend will be paid on on receipt of the latest Leap funds unless Ed has managed to lose them as well.
....has just spent £6250 of their hard-earned on a purchase here! If he/she is reading this, please enlighten us long termers as to your expectations!!
Don’t worry guys …simple explanation “ it’s market conditions” or “ it’s a legacy investment” which is not part of the master plan

Indeed, another investment down the pan…the accountant will have an easy time doing the books! Its torture, years of this zhit!
Re leap 2nd payment…
@edmcdermott12
There is no reason for any delay and no issues are expected with receiving payment

Another investment down the pan is just another day at the office for seed mat.from one shambles to another.
It really wouldn't suprise me if we didn't get a RNS this month to tell us some bs reason why we didn't get the second leap payment.this fund has been a complete disaster as an investment.
This whole affair is pitiful. I know its all been said before but I just cant believe how fruitless everything is.
And they still have the gall to talk about Jim and Lorne as if theyre anything but shysters.
To liquidate. Come on Ed do the right thing or at least make seed wages performance related.
