HF.....i agree.

Just to choose one small example and ofcourse there are many more......but if you look at question 10 of the nov 22 imc that stockcheque posted below and how they answered.

I dont know how they can justify asking us for more money if they are not going to make some statement of intent themselves.

It seems we have lost more than a year.....in less than a year🤷‍♂️

The bod need to buy into the risk going forward themselves and i dont consider one weeks salary commitment.....failure to do so would suggest to me that they are now wrong for the company and we would be better of having them replaced by a bod who are serious👍

I would not argue with the remuneration if the progress was definitive but they are asking for more dosh from shareholders who are punch drunk from failed timelines.

After todays imc, my view remains un-altered.....they have a week to announce they are putting more of their money in, suspend salaries or probably a fairer request....convert some salary on a monthly basis into shares, ofcourse i mean the bod and not operations.

Failure to make a statement on their part is a slap in the face for us and im not buying it.

Cutting of your nose to spite your face is one thing but im not backing an old nag if they aint.....enough is enough!

Fair enough.....anyway red, im counting on you sunshine!

I well remember you stating that you will be taking action coming the end of summer if there is no definitive contract news so i expect your a man of you're word👍

Is there any reason for following Leandra now when its pretty clear that she wont be taking any m or bio for at least another 6 to 9 months?

Unfortunately, even when she is fitted out ready for trial the start date gets put back another 3 or 6 months....looks like msc are going to drag this out as long as they can!

Hopefully jm can give a reasonable update on the reason why tomorrow......ffs, the vessel was bought specifically for the trial was it not, now she is going to be karting around america and we miss a great opportunity for a perfect long distance trial🤷‍♂️

Unfortunately, we have criticised the qed bod for poor performance over the years but i think that msc deserve a fair bit of critiscm also for the way they have went about this....its ironic because i think they still sponsor F1.

Commentators in the industry should be calling them out more but nobody likes rocking boats when theres money to be made and you risk being blackballed.

I think the market is still 50/50 about the msc trial going ahead and i dont blame then....i dont like looking back at old news but we must be nearing 3 years since we first made an agreement with them.....wtf, its not as if its groundbreaking stuff.

Are they just playing the game....would seem so but its costing us!

Here's the game imo!

I will support the fund raise if theres a salary suspension or the board offer to take part of their salary in shares....extending the runway and shouldering some off the risk.

Failure to do that.......they can 'F' right off!

They have already cost me a small fortune and i am not funding more failure for them to lap up their huge salaries.

These delays have went on too long now, its time for them to step in and shoulder some risk or get out if they dont have the stomach for it.

I will try to get this point across on Wednesday but wont be surprised if its not mentioned!

I dont think there will be any reason not to name them anyway.

It will be easy enough to find out who it is when they start to supply....i cannot see a triparte agreement saying this contract is between msc, qed and a 3rd party supplier who would prefer not to be named.

Surely everyone will want their own bit of limelight when the deal is done!

Maybe the morocco trail is that important but i just cannot see it.....these trials are more or less the same as we did before covid or was it just after the first lockdown finished....anyway, i know we had a breakdown a few month ago but is he really going for that when we have an experienced team in place.

On one hand it would be the right thing to do but i hope its not......need to some action with msc, its been too long already and this is a perfect time for msc to make some noise👍

Jack i cant remember and since iii's gone stupid with their new format i cant be bothered looking back but i did not realise that the maersk trial cost cepsa money.

Was it a triparte agreement last time or is that why they have gone down this route this time.....seems only fair that they do and perhaps more commitment shown from msc?

Hi don,

Very well put and i think you are right.

There were a few good failures there by the hso legal team though....like when asked why they notified hoodoo and who else they notified at the same time, his response was rubbish and not confident, might not have made much difference but hey.....they need to do better than that😊

That said, from my laymans view of the evidence put forward. I think hso's case is stronger than what i thought it was in the first place so thats one good thing.

It will be interesting to see how it pans out from here👍

I missed the end....grandaughter wanted to go to park🤷‍♂️.

I am surprised a bit by the result but i thought hso's legal team were awful....and i mean both of them.

Got things wrong and stumbled all over the place, like they were drunk.

Hoodoo's team were aggressive amd forceful, im not saying hso would have won with a different team but if i were represented like that i would be worried.....i would certainly change for the next meeting even if that meant some knowledge was lost😊

Well that was interesting.....they are on a break, i think valkor win this round for sure, 60/40 on the next one just favouring valkor.

Who knows......lets just get the right result😅

Not greatly impressed by valkor legal team but i suppose if they win.....thats a different matter😁

Yup, im watching.....motion struck and move to the next stage will do.

Hopefully no hiccups😬

Surely this might be the reason jm has handed over the conference duties next week?

Its always been leandra and she was confirmed again in an rns a few weeks back so it can only be a question of when and if its next week....lets go!

If i was jm, i think i would want to be there to oversee things running smoothly then stop off in amsterdam for a pina colada or 2😊

That would be the dream scenario, both on trial seperately.......and you would think that msc will want to start bragging about it pretty soon.

The time taken sure has been frustrating but when we get moving the momentum will be great and should lead to huge follow on business.

Yes....too early for me but if they become more regular

Anyway, who cares about the ii's......i would rather it be someone in the know👍

Any movement or departure date yet?

I presume not so any idea why?😊

Great reasoned argument here this morning.

The motion should be struck on wednesday.

The licence will be granted unless hoodoo confirm that they want to pursue through court.

Even if hoodoo confirm that they are going to pursue, the licence could still be granted on the basis of not prejudicing valkor which i think is reasonable.

Be nice if hoodoo dropped it after wednesday but thats unlikely.....that said, its one thing to say you intend to go to court but another matter to proceed when big money comes into play.
