We would love to hear your thoughts about our site and services, please take our survey here.
Yup. Having to assert your relative 'success level' to a compete stranger on on a manky financial board, is indeed a classic means of evidence, nobs. No damaged-ego-breeds-fantasy-claims to see here. Still, despite the absolutely bulletproof demonstration of your bone fides, nobs, I still can't help myself continuing to re-read your fantasy CV. 30 year career in the City, huh? And yet you knew nothing of the problems at PKF, which anyone with 30 minutes of experience would have. Got it.
Yeah, nice try, nobs. `You certainly read from a CV alright, but I think you were copying off my paper. And it's precisely because of the vast imbalance in our respective abilities that I've been able to out you so quickly. Anyway, I hope you've enjoyed your time as c-ck of the walk here exploiting your bit of inside information from your brief time with the Company before you were most likely sh*tcanned, because its about to get a whole lot harder for you to cosplay from here on.
'....you are right that they have completed the tasks set out in the admission document but the problem has been timing,...' It's like trying to argue with a Trump supporter, only dumber. That doesn't even remotely conform to your position towards the Company these past months. All you've done to date is engage in wild speculation regarding everything from the auditor-led suspension to production milestones that consistently pushed as negative a narrative as possible, and you've been wrong wrong wrong. Now all of a sudden, when the evidence of positive progress is irrefutable, you're conceding the Company is delivering on its promises (btw, still waiting for that apology on your auditor-led suspension faceplant) and the real concern is funding?!?! Move the goalposts much? As I've already written, its apparent that the further you get from your likely (brief) time with the Company, the weaker your information becomes which, combined with the bitterness borne of whatever wrong you feel was done to you, disrupts your remaining brain cell from even helping you appreciate what a senseless hypocrite you're being.
since i've never been a fan, i only highlight the positive piece tw has written in his year-end edition of *************, because no one else here has. for one thing, he echoes closely my theory about redfern, which is a nice to see. having satisfied himself that there was nothing financially sinister behind the redfern announcement, tw then goes on to reveal that he 'understands' that ecob's current trading is 'as expected' as the company begins 'fulfilling an existing order book of an expected e114m for the next 3 years'. then, after noting again the current competitive advantages of ecob's production process, tw reiterates his 'buy' recommendation, noting that he expects 'double digit millions of euros profit potential from just (my emphasis) the group's current positioning......as cash flow is announced as really starting to kick-in, and further contracts are won, we expect the shares to spark.....' sorry nobs, guess he didn't get your memo either.
Truro - The theory behind Redfern's suspension (and likely dismissal I would assume) was covered well on the other board. Since the market rules are very clear on these matters, and no NOMAD is going to risk sanction (or worse), by far the most likely explanation is personal misconduct by Redfern serious enough to warrant immediate suspension and a review by the rest of the board. If there were any connection to a breach by the Company or any financial impact, it would have had to be disclosed, which would more than explain the lack of an adverse share price impact. In fact, seeing as nobs, from his extensive 'research' (ie., he worked with him for 5 minutes), revealed that Redfern was a toxic waste of space, there's probably an argument for the sp to rally rather than fall!
Wow nobs, triggered much? What got to you most, pointing out that you've been wrong about everything relevant happening at the company so far, with those proclamations getting increasingly inaccurate as your connection to the company fades? (seems likely as your assertion that your 'predictions have been based on research, knowledge and experience in this sector' has been your funniest fantasy claim yet by a mile.). Meantime, you 'grant' that the 'AIM market has not been great...'? How very generous of you, nobs. I guess you'll be visiting the message boards of those many hundreds of other AIM companies then that have suffered 50%+ falls this year primarily because of that 'not great' small cap market, to explain to those shareholders how the current share price is all that matters and they should give up on their 'pathetic' businesses as well. As for the rest of us, we'll continue to remain confident that, while the Company builds on its recent milestones and begins to deliver into its twin contracts in Albania early in the new year - as forecast (that particularly eats at your spleen, doesn't it?) - and the early signs of a small cap market recovery seen late in 2023 continues, our share price will more than take care of itself in 2024. (small note: good to know about that 'wouldn't work for millions' thing, because rumour has it the Company may seek to recover the 2 bob they actually paid you...). Finally, you should think about actually doing some research instead of just claiming it and maybe you'd learn why bigger competitors like Ilky have failed. (Hint: it wasn't for lack of capital, you poor, angry bird).
Thanks for that, foxy. The Nobbies of the world will always infect discussion boards like this with their thinly-disguised grievances dressed up as legitimate analysis, and their bruised egos spewing self-righteous assertions against the Company, all in a near-constant attempt to block any sunshine from breaking through.
Typical default position for a villain like yourself, nobs, to try and create a 'battle' that never existed so he can try and claim dominance, no matter how fleeting, against someone consistently owning him. Meanwhile, against your trying to crow about a bogus non-debate over the timing of the 'first wall' (admit it: you never thought they would get to that key milestone, certainly not well within 2023), there was our one-sided 'debate' over the reasons for the length share suspension, during which you consistently argued, with no evidence, that the reason(s) for the suspension were threatening the Company's very existence, even while I (completely correctly) explained it was likely due to troubles at the auditor (guess I'll wait forever for an apology on that massive face plant of yours). And now, as it's dawning on you that the Company is likely on the verge of entering batch production early in this coming quarter, you're just going to become more desperate. Listen, we get it: you're an angry critic who probably had a direct affiliation with ECOB - possibly even as an ex-employee - with an obvious ax to grind, clearly committed to promoting a constant 'glass half empty' narrative, rules of evidence be damned. You're far from the first poster with that kind of CV to end up as a miserable troll haunting a financial message board, and you certainly won't be the last. However, your immediate problem is the same as many of your kind that have come before you: the more time that passes, the weaker your knowledge of the Company becomes, and at the same time, the less willing remaining insiders, that you've become used to using as sources, are to speak to you. Thus, further diluted by your continued bitterness, the result is you end up making increasingly less cogent, less relevant and/or accurate arguments while defaulting more and more to ad hominems and general ranting against anyone who dares see progress. Me go back into 'hiding'?? Maybe instead of trying to lob flaccid insults at me, you should consider your own position and withdraw with what's left of your dignity.
If that's what you've 'heard through the grapevine' (ugh), then why not share that in the first place instead of the usual snark? (hint: this is a rhetorical question. It doesn't require you 'answer' as that is self-evident).
Good thing he served no useful purpose anymore, nobby, and the Company will now save on his needless compensation. Kind of parallels your story arc perfectly
At least the narrative is getting clearer and the Company is becoming more visible in its IR/PR. A couple of major extinguisher clients coming out of an industry consulting group like Bells and Two Tones in yesterday's RNS and it would producing recurring revenue that would make the current market cap look pretty miserly. I love their FP paint, but their extinguisher fluid formula genuinely looks like magic (the video they show in the middle of the interview is kind of amazing frankly) and I'm getting much more bulled up over the prospects of that side of the business. The sample orders in quick succession in both the UK and Germany seem genuinely encouraging.

If they keep the momentum going, let's hope they can actually 'beat' most recent expectations and start delivering on the Albanian contracts middle-to-(maybe even)-early in Q1 2024.
You're being silly. This is just a reference to the previously announced, dual approaches the Company revealed they had received at (if memory serves) at 33p. In fact, I do think this clause will have been debated over with the NOMAD as they would doubtless have argued it will likely be seen by the market as a pretty transparent attempt to try and artificially sweeten the bitter taste of an unexpected placement at 23p. I'm a huge fan of the asset and near-term economics here, but I agree with this theoretical take by the NOMAD. In the end, the Company should have left the reference to the previous approaches (which of course have never been independently confirmed) out and just taken the PR hit.
Who wants to tell him?
Huh. looks like the offending post has been removed. Anti-disinformation software working better
Once again parsnip, you give everyone here pause to wonder about whether you are a bad actor. These are completely normal share incentive awards vesting for the management options/shares plan, so the shares need to be registered as part of the Company's capital. There is nothing unusual here and those shares are certainly NOT for sale in any way.
First off, you confirmed MY post, at least with the early part of your only coherent sentence, '.....The TRAM cash will eventually arrive I am sure....' However, the rest of this post is precisely the same at the balance of your previous: meaningless blather
You started so promisingly, BS....TRAM is a US hedge fund. They are sending US dollars. San Leon would have a money center bank account to receive those dollars. Any issue would reside with the major, international, household name banks involved in that transaction, period (eg., possible some moron put a hold on the funds simply bc TRAM were sending such a large sum to a company (SLE) that does business in Nigeria. Sad, but possible). Readers can therefore ignore the rest of swanny's post beyond the first sentence.
That sounds sensible enough gffy, but is very likely not the way to look at it. If there is a block in the system, the bank or banks involved will assert that they are not required to provide ANY reasons or explanation, which is what can make these situations so intensely frustrating. Therefore, rather than junkie's mudslinging speculation where either SLE or TRAM or both 'know' but for some reason are withholding that information for instance (a very, very serious, possibly even criminal, infraction, by the way), it is much more likely that actually, neither party are, at this stage anyway, certain why this has happened in the first place, and the NOMAD (and/or the FCA) would therefore prohibit SLE from publishing an RNS with what they would doubtless consider guesswork without sufficient corroborative evidence at this stage, no matter how 'well-informed' that guesswork might be. I recognise that my scenario also has some weaknesses, but my confidence that I'm in the right general area is because one thing we can all be certain of right now: in a situation like this, regulators - both internal and external - will be absolutely crawling up Fanning's you-know-what and so there is even less room to mess around with the public messaging than there might otherwise be, which as I wrote already, is very low to begin with these days.
