ASOG seem to have all but thrown the towel in here. Pete308 has said he thinks it's the end of the road for shareholders but ALAG will not stop fighting. Join them today and make a difference. Whatever happens here, at least you can say you didn't just roll over at let the greedy ones get away with your pensions, life savings, savings.......unchallenged. Afrenlegalaction Yahoo Com

Admit it Kaisa, you have no business being here. You also don't have a scooby as to whether we will come out of admin or not. Seeing the nature of some of the other companies you post shaped my opinion of you. Off out now, I guess you'll be hanging around as you're a bit bored yeh?

Kaisa comes out of the woodwork to give not needed advice. 49 posts and hanging around a company that's just gone into admin like a bad smell.

Hi Bagz, Go on have yourself a nice weekend, we are all down AND HAVE BEEN CONSIDERABLY DOWN FOR A LONG TIME. ASOG, should be here now at our time of need. Guiding us through and explaining how AL has really been our friend. I'm not bitter... as they have so admirably backed him as the man for the job. ASOG.... who declared they were on holiday moments before the RNS dropped. What unfortunate timing. hey ho! Have a good weekend all. Idlv and Afren Legal Action, the only true fighters for the shareholder cause IMHO They deserve our gratitude and full support. If anything can be done for Shareholders over the next few weeks, they are the people to back. They wont rest. afrenlegalaction yahoo com

'Disgusting how the FCA has not launched a full investigation into this collapse , as shareholders we were not given major facts of events going on within the company' I complete agree Bugsy. The FCA have acknowledged the plight of Afren Shareholders but they should have investigated further, after all, that's their job. But then again, why should we be surprised, this is all part and parcel of the finance industry.. stripping the wealth from the Middle Classes and Pensioners...anyone investing in the stock market who believes what they read in the news, or from brokers or even company Rns's are setting themselves up to be robbed. That's the big lesson here for me. Even the companies accounts seem to be lies. Pensions have been released by companies in the hands of people who are allowed to invest it (gamble it) in the Stock Market (rigged casino). The Stock Market is no 'market' at all. A hard lesson to learn. These people MUST NOT be allowed to simply get away with this without answering for it. Someone has to do something about it. Timely holidays for ASOG :)

Oh how you enjoy your soap box. If I hadn't read your posts over the past 6 months and seen the outcome each time, I would have taken this last one a lot more seriously. So we could be in with a chance then!

Idlv, High praise for you I thought. I'm off out for the day now and will be back later. GLA

I have always praised and felt that Afren were undeserving of the gentlemanly approach and respect that ASOG showed them. I do not think events have proven me wrong on this. Finally I would like to apologise to ldlv. This is a really honourable man who genuinely cares for you all. His interest is in the preservation and success of Afren PLC and all shareholder value. His efforts have been incredible and if anyone knew just how much the stories and pains of Afren shareholders have personally bothered him and galvanised him into action. He is not me as some have thought, he is a much better man than I ever could be and the biggest regret is that I may have brought discredit to the amazing work he has done for you all, just by my words. I truly apologise. My preference would be to fight those who seek to defraud us rather than squabbling. I hope this brings an end to animosities and if it doesn’t, then well we all know exactly which page we were on before escalation, so there will be no misunderstandings thereafter. I actually genuinely care about this company and value of its potential and the sadness at its treatment by its custodians and the merits of this transfer of value has shocked and sickened me. To Afren I make no apologies. We your shareholders are the ones who deserve the apologies after the catalogue of injustices we have suffered as reward for choosing to invest in you."

My aunt Miriam made a visit to Wild Wolf last night as she was not happy with what's been going on. She doesn't want things to get out of hand especially as she looks likely to be the new CEO of the company. The Wolf has since sought fit to address everyone with the following: "I would like to apologise to Bountyhunter. In the frenzy of the day you inadvertently posted a comment I had written without reading it. He is blameless and a caring supporter of all Afren shareholders and for anyone to attack him for my words is really misguided about who the enemy is here. If you want justice and cannot see any wrong in what Afren are doing to their own shareholders then at the next EGM you will have a chance to challenge me directly and there are a few accusations that we all have made that we really need to address and get closure on, for us all to sleep soundly. I will attend for my own reasons and also in order to let anyone vent any issue they have with me to my face. Anyone who wants a personal litigation with me is welcome but please start it as it is so much cheaper and less bothersome to counter than to commence as all personal litigations are essentially futile. I have not yet arrived so I am sorry I will not be going away but am happy to leave these conversations for evermore once it is confirmed that others are not being picked off by their own cousins, for words which clearly were nothing to do with them. Naturally I also unreservedly apologise to all ASOG members and its hard working committee. The comments I made about them were in ignorance, temper and were childish. They were solely as a reflection of my anger at the lack of feedback, the key moment silences and the subsequent appalling response from Afren in terms of the lack of offer, continued negative reporting, SOA, Junk Mail and contempt that Alan Linn appears to have shown shareholders. The information flow has also been the most biased I have ever known and to an observer he was either asking for a Yes vote while not disclosing facts or presenting facts in a tantrum from a No vote. Neither of which is behaviour I would expect from someone who has control of my investements. I always worried about the unconditional support you had given him to becoming chairman and as Ynot wisely reminded us, the moment anyone took that role after the defaults, they were basically working for the creditors not the shareholders. I just could not and cannot see what is the point in showering an AHBH consultant in praise for a new job title, if he is working with those intending to push a poison pill down shareholders throats. In my obvious ignorance, I just could not see the purpose of continuing to support him as things worsened and into suspension. As I have lost over £100k and far too many hours on this share, my anger at this company and its many negative events is beyond words.

'The position we are now in is that the company is in information lockdown'. Oh how I wish we could get back to those days when Alan was briefing us all regularly. Nite nite

If any shareholder or interested party in Afren PLC can provide any factual information of any event involving the company that they feel should be reported to the regulatory authorities or has unnecessarily damaged the value of the company, please can they collate the information and forward it accordingly or instead send directly to the FCA/ SFO/SEC teams currently looking into this

How long have Afren had to have a frank and Open discussion with shareholders? We have been waiting for what seems like an eternity. All we have been handed are threats of 'take the hideous deal or get nothing'. There has never been any dialogue with shareholders and big AL often goes to the press first, or rumours and rns's have been leaked which is where we have found out information that should have been disclosed to us by the board in professional manner. Shareholders seemingly are an obstacle for the BOD to get past in order to achieve their goal and they have never been shown or treated with any respect whatsoever. They have pumped countless millions of pounds into this company which is offering to destroy them or almost destroy them. Basically, we have your money now f off or lump it. Some choice. No wonder ALAG wanted to sue the ba$$ads, as you put it.

Ynot, To say that I don't trust you or any of ASOG is a complete understatement. I don't believe that you have any interest in shareholders wellbeing and I personally believe that your main goal was to have Alan Linn appointed as CEO and to originally see the yes vote through, but the tide turned against you so damage limitation was the order of the day...stay close to your friends and even closer to your enemies? You'll get another chance to sway the vote, in time. A handy little suspension might hopefully blunt the pesky No voters will.. Of course these are just my opinions and views, but they have been formulated over time and it is time that often allows us to see more clearly. Your post to bounty below is a complete joke. So your first meeting was a scoping meeting. ...that's it? did you have a staring competition across the table followed by cookies and tea?....then you had to have another meeting to say 'they want a better deal'! don't make me laugh...and you had to go back again for what, a brown paper bag with some really nice sandwiches in? You must have felt really important...all of you In my opinion there is so much that was said that you cant say here that you are limited to coming up with that load of ol' baloney. Extremely limited baloney at that. Of course this is all just my own opinion and not to be taken as advice or intended to ssway the opinions of peole as I wouldn't want you, big Pete B or Ainsley Chariot to start threatening legal action now would I!

It's a shame that things have turned out as they have currently, between ALAG and ASOG. I suppose all that ALAG have ever wanted was a fair deal for shareholders and for ASOG to disclose information to all shareholders that would at least give them an understanding of what was discussed in their name. ASOG have freely advertised their identities which gives one the impression that they are upstanding with nothing to hide...now when are they going to give us the general low down on said conversations with Alan Linn? Is that really too much to ask? If any shareholder or interested party in Afren PLC can provide any factual information of any event involving the company that they feel should be reported to the regulatory authorities or has unnecessarily damaged the value of the company, please can they collate the information and forward it accordingly or instead send directly to the FCA/ SFO/SEC teams currently looking into this

Andy.p Well said. My gut tells me I should apologise for previous posting. It won't be the first time I've been wrong, or the last. What a mess this whole thing is. Nite nite

Evening TW, your post about creating a dummy account and joining ALAG shocked me frankly. I shouldn't need to explain but suffice to say you are supposed to be holding neutral office in ASOG and tip toeing around joining groups under completely false identity (which you alluded to if I am not mistaken) in order to spy, I can only assume that's what you meant? Anyway I was alarmed that your BB character which I thought I have come to know would act in this way. It just seemed out of character. That was all.

TW, Have you just exposed your true nature on here? ASOG must be very proud to have you in their ranks of top brass. You should apply for CEO at Afren, you'd really fit in really well.

If you are reading this board for the first time and can help with the below, please do If any shareholder or interested party in Afren PLC can provide any factual information of any event involving the company that they feel should be reported to the regulatory authorities or has unnecessarily damaged the value of the company, please can they collate the information and forward it accordingly or instead send directly to the FCA/ SFO/SEC teams currently looking into this afrenlegalaction at yahoo dot com

'on a practical level if AL steps down, who will replace him?' My Aunt Miriam said she will have a go. She will take the advice of the experts, both financial and production who are on hand and then and attempt to harbour a deal where the Shareholders aren't taken for a very big ride. (spread the pain a bit more fairly) They can then all vote yes to the motion and get the good ship Afren sailing again. She also said she would be more than happy with £150k per annum. Vote yes for Aunt Miriam.. by the way If any shareholder or interested party in Afren PLC can provide any factual information of any event involving the company that they feel should be reported to the regulatory authorities or has unnecessarily damaged the value of the company, please can they collate the information and forward it accordingly or instead send directly to the FCA/ SFO/SEC teams currently looking into this

I know Jolly, I was being deliberately facetious, apologies
