jock - i noticed that too. I did reply thanks mate and you have a good day too. I have noticed a change in your tone - less aggressive. Well done mate!

zz - maybe you and others should spend less time worrying about me and worrying whether colin will ever sell a test?

in the 6 months since he got awarded a contract and 3 months of talking to approved 3rd parties who presumably want to sell their goods - he is still optimistic. whilst other companies have gone in and got the cash

he could not sell the last ice cold beer in the desert....no matter what the key market is this week

but yeah i am the problem

taking - believe me if i ever were to meet colin face to face - he would know how i felt.....mind you probably he wouldnt give a tass as he is collecting his wage every week no matter if he sells a test or not

as for the AGM....not possible as i live in a different country and have work...i wonder if any that did go asked him? or were they too busy sucking up to him?...in colin we trust...in colin we trust...in colin we trust.........ad infinitum

Mip-....then what are the staff doing? Colin hasn't sold anything so it is pretty difficult to understand what they are busy busy busy with ? They would be running out of storage space by now.

Might have been good to update investors with info on what is happening day to day...other than waiting for approvals or talking endlessly with 3rd parties..

I bet the other company must exit the meetings saying " does he actually want to sell anything?"..

Scaff..I am sure they will get over the line..but Colin the snail isn't exactly busting a gut to sell a test...they really shouldn't be difficult conversations that have dragged out over 3 months.

My suspicion is he wants to hold out for his own product approval ..and he is not really interested in finalising the deal with the other parties introduced...

He hasn't blown it yet but there has to be question marks on ability to sell elsewhere..whichever is the key market today

a) allows me to vent - and lets others maybe see they are not alone
b) i hope that it gets back to colin "can't sell a test in a pandemic" - he needs accountability and be aware of investor feeling
c) counteracts "in colin we trust" from the rampy fairies

i am confident the gov contract will come through - due to bethell's tweets - shown that colin "can't sell a test in a pandemic" has not managed to blow it.

if his sales style is the same as his dour investor communication then it is going to be a very hard sell and i really don't think he is in the right business. the following gave me the biggest laugh

"Our Health and Nutrition Division continues to show early signs of recovery towards pre-pandemic revenue levels, "
so basically they are recovering to not many sales at all...lol

so we are past half way in september...looks like october will be the new sept/aug/april.

lol......that was quite funny!

what is funnier - is that if/when colin actually makes a sell - i bet i make more money out of this share than you will...

buddy - thanks ...but i won't lay claim to any intelligence!
however it is only me....No multiple accounts or aliases....and unfortunately i certainly don't make money off posting on here.
bang - where do i contact these people paying people to post? or is this more of your pixie dust/unicorn poo that you ramping fairies spend all your time collecting?

Mip-..so does Colin.

I may repeat but it is because it seems perpetually true

John..good post.
Colin's leadership has been an absolute shower of poo.quite frankly I would like to see him replaced.

Even though the company is in the right place at the right time..they can't sell a test in a pandemic..it is no wonder then that they can't sell the rest of the portfolio of products.

I am sure that we will get the gov money but boy has this clown made a meal of it.
It is just waffle and jam all the time.

i suspect the wording - rehash of old stuff with very subjective language on time and expectations- has suggested to some that we are no nearer than we were when they first used this wording. I suspect some also hoped that there might be some indication of sales - of anything. market is fed up with the waffle and jam

they are unlikely to leave a company where they get well paid..cheap options to sell when pumped on twitter,,,and don't really have much to do.

well someone has to counter the "ramping fairies"
trust in colin/ big things / busy busy busy/ employing a zillion people so must be doing something other than making tea and doing the crossword whilst colin talks

no doubt collecting pixie dust and unicorn poo at the same time

usual pump on twitter and negative RNS.

guess the company is more liable with formal RNS than boozy tweets

oke - in hindsight that was a sign that I should have taken more notice of. they clearly knew something. but like many on here i was trying to defend them and my investment.

is it that they know of colin's infamous ability to not be able to sell anything? even a test in a pandemic.
or his ability to turn a silk purse into a sows ear? eg RNS
or that there is a wide boy clown in charge of PR - who likes to tweet after a curry?

twatcher - i agree excellent post.

it was obvious - as i pointed out previously- that there would be no news pre AGM - hence the tenuous link to bidens announcement. to be honest colin got saved by bethells tweet. as this was good news that the talks were not blown and capacity would be needed,

i still haven't changed my view on colin "cant sell a test even in a pandemic "....he should get the gov contract over the line unless he is completely "special". however he is making as hard work over it as possible. the hold up is clearly the talks which he should have completed by now. the guy needs replacing if odx ever want to be a serious player

i don't buy their ability to sell to whatever is the key market this week and the rest of the portfolio is either pony or they can't sell it either. great sales team he is managing there.

just a question of waiting for gov contract

people were criticising those who sold at high 50p this week - now you see why. a guaranteed 5-10% and rinse and repeat has been the only way to avoid being at a loss in this share.

I agree Boris was never going to mention odx. The tweet yesterday shows Colin hasn't blown it and that the capacity will be needed. I am a lot more comfortable since.

The traders got their 5-10%...and who can blame them...it has been the only way to not lose money on odx in the last 6 months

Hopefully with the tweet yesterday we are close to an announcement and rerate...

i see someone could not take my response to big jock - and had to get it removed. ummmmmm

not sure what was so offensive? aggression is often a sign of insecurity or a bully....
