Member Info for addicknt

NMM, I managed it and I can barely turn a computer on. As for security, you can choose to be anonymous, although because people appear to respect others identities, many are happy to use their real names. You don't get the sort of stuff which appears here.

Smick, it relates to correspondence DBW received (he's happy for me to mention his name) which was both surprising and hints at an explanation for the board and DGR's recommendation and voting intention.

I'm afraid I can't say any more, but DBW may put a bit of flesh on the bones.

NMM, thanks. OMI is one of the shares I bought for the speculative part of my portfolio and I've already traded them once, which is not what I do normally.

I sincerely hope someone coughs up a higher offer here, the decent folk deserve it.

BTW, do you use telegram?

NMM, I have no regrets, particularly as the shares I moved into have so far performed well.

I became convinced something wasn't right and that was the reason I sold and yes, I did see something last week which reinforced my opinion.

Needy, I haven't 'joined Rodney's crusade', I was simply offering some factual info. What exactly is wrong with that? If you had any intelligence whatsoever, you would understand why I don't share the view a rival offer will appear.

Just for clarification; I have NEVER claimed to have had 'cosy chats with the CEO'. Not once. I have spoken to Smith and others provided the confirmation. The fact you choose to ignore the evidence is your problem, not mine.

There's another fact you seem to be completely unaware of, and that is that many shareholders talk to each other privately and have, over the years, had many conversations with directors, for which they've provided proof, including a bit of a bombshell last week. Of course, no one would entertain talking to you, and the consequence is you have remained totally in the dark about many things.

You do not control this board, and if I and others wish to post, we will, so I suggest you wind your neck in and accept people have different opinions.

'control the narrative' ! Ha! No one controls the narrative on here, not even you - despite how much you wish you did and how hard you've tried over the years. 5,200 post almost entirely dedicated to attacking people, and that doesn't include the thousands of posts under your previous moniker. And you call other people obsessional! Extraordinary.

As for my so-called 'wink, wink' to Rodney, it was very straightforward. I wanted to contact him away from this board in order to offer him some info relating to his understanding of the SoA process and I had no wish to attract any of your usual garbage. We did have a chat and I hope he found it of use.

The other day you accused me of misleading people. I challenged you to provide evidence. You failed to do so. And you accuse me of deflection!

Here you go needy:

You were making on of your usual false accusations that I only own one share and the proof of this was; "If you have a portfolio of shares you don't spend hours trawling through company records and hours upon hours studying RNS (sic) until your eyesight fails". Those were your words and the implication was clear.

So, you were wrong on two points: If you're serious about investing, you do spend a long time looking at company announcements etc, and second, I do have a portfolio. Hope that helps. You can get back to your jigsaw now.

That's a cracking joke, Rodney. The other day he accused me of 'reading company announcements' as if doing so was a heinous crime.

Perhaps you could explain how I'm misleading people? And when exactly did you become the board moderator? Your obsession with me is totally bizarre. You really are a ridiculous old man.

DBW, thanks, will do.

Rodney, is there a way I can contact you privately? Are you on Telegram?

RT, I admire your doggedness and wish you well, but if I were you I'd seek proper legal advice on this question because you'd kick yourself if you missed the only opportunity you've got to voice your concerns in the only place it matters i. e the court.

For guidance, the disclosure of relevant information is one area which can be questioned. Good luck.

RT, Google it. I think you'll be pleasantly surprised.

RT, I believe shareholders are able to make representations relating to the fairness of the transaction at the sanction hearing. It's not just about procedure.

But how independent are the other board members? Not very would be my view.

No we know what Mather really thinks. Why on earth didn't he stand his ground and refuse to sign the Irrevocable Undertaking? It's not as if he should be worried about a board split at this stage of the game.

Ratboy, that was the site I was using. My point was that the spot price was not down $200 as the previous poster had suggested.

Maybe I'm looking at the wrong thing, but the website I've just looked at for live gold prices shows it to be up 0.16%.

Gold now back in positive territory.

During my time working in the City in the '80s, conventional wisdom was that as soon as your taxi driver started tipping a share it was time to get out. Polly Peck was the most extreme example, when every man and his dog owned shares.
