C Bird accrued fees March 22 - March 23 - £71.5k. Good shareholder value?
Consultants fees £101k. Good shareholder value?
Discuss.

Just to be clear, I am not and never have been a member of the shareholder group who were involved in the call with CB. Nor any other shareholder group.

I am of the opinion that the notes following the recent call with CB should be published in full, rather than just for the "benefit" of a few shareholders.
Transparency is called for.

"...already in the public domain....", so where's the point?
"....offers shareholders to quiz CB....", so what he says is meaningless?
"Every aspect of the current portfolio of BZT is discussed...." then make it public. If not, why not?
It is called transparency.

"..just words from CB's mouth", so where's the point?

Just for interest. What qualifies as insider trading.
"Insider trading is the trading of a company's securities by individuals with access to confidential or material non-public information about the company. Taking advantage of this privileged access is considered a breach of the individual's fiduciary duty."
I ask again, will the notes of the call with CB yesterday be made public on this board?

Notes of call with CB available on this board?

Alternatively keep up with RNSs.

Quite simple really!

Eric,
Shareholders and market obviously loved it!!!!

Merlin2014,
I too was in BMR, now Kendrick, and yes the royalty was supposed to provide some income but the obfuscation was such that personally I never believed it would come to anything. Borelli gave the company to JLP, complete nonsense.
The thing about the Mid-Week Roast (also sunday and any other) is that it is a PR operation, the clue is in the name "Roast PR Ltd".
Until I see or hear it in an RNS, frankly what ever is said has to be taken with the classic "pinch of salt".
I do wonder how much "Roast PR Ltd" is paid by CB companies to broadcast this stuff.

MC was also at one time CEO of Caerus who had a joint venture with Bezant, which came to nothing. Check Caerus and Bezant RNSs.
I do not question MC's background as a geologist.
My point is that he is MD, an executive director role, in another CB company, Kendrick Resources, which is Nordic based, whilst working in Africa with other CB companies.

MC may well be a Geologist and consultant with 40 years experience but how does africa equate with the nordic region?
One possibly, both, big questions?
Another Colin, thinly spread, or just jobs for the boys?

Guys,
I have consistenty said that CB is spread too thinly .
Look at his companies (web sites) and particularly their structure; XTR - 21 , GLR - 17 , Ken - 2 AFP - 5, BZT - 5.
You can argue that the web sites are not up to date, then why not? Task that slipped off the radar maybe.
Multiple companies/operations/projects across the continents, I don't care how good you are, this is too many.
He can spin with Roast/Mid week all he likes but shareholders and the market see through this.
CB needs to start thinking seriously about getting some management into these companies, but not like MC, MD of Ken (Scandinavia) but also working in Africa, how does that work?

Cygnus7, I think your comment applies to all CB's companies across the board.
Problem is, when he does do a Roast or Mid-week it is not always helpful to the share price!
We want news but also be careful what you wish for!

Mr T,
What is the point of a conversation with CB? What could he say that wasn't said in the PR mid-week earlier this month which went down really well!!!!
I don't know of a CB company where shareholders are rubbing their hands with glee, most are pretty much disillusioned, waiting, waiting, waiting!
Maybe it's us, the shareholders, who are expecting too much too soon, but CB has been known to "over egg the pudding" in the past, across the board!

Hi Guys,
Over on JLP they are looking at the above, can anyone remember more about the "payment" to Blue Square or Blue Square itself? I seem recall something not sitting quite right, but I may be wrong.
Thanks

Borelli is still around, non-ex director of KEN, another of CB's companies, why not ask him?
I certainly recall someone looking at Blue Square but I can't remember what they found, if anything!

Colin thinks it's the greatest thing since sliced bread whilst the market thinks it's a bucket of cold sick!
I wonder who is right?

Seems a common thread amongst CB's companies.
