bwm,
I would say that the first 2 sentences were sensible advice.
The last one being share dependent, and open to personal viewpoint.

Tymers,
Every time a 'troll' (in your opinion) posts on here, you post a message saying 'do not engage with the trolls, swampues (sic), masked protesters that are blatant liars'.
You should perhaps follow your own advice, or at least provide some actual substance to back up your posting of a guaranteed rosy future here.
I am a cautiously optimistic investor here of more than 2 years who welcomes the progress made, but is aware that there are many more hurdles to jump, and uncertainties to overcome before this can be considered a 'sure thing'. AIM is not a sure thing, hence my circumspect, and I always recognise progress as the various work programs proceed.
The market looks to agree more with my muted outlook than that of the 'trolls' and 'rampers'.

YL,
How can GL manage a 'bl**dy miracle', when you have spent months telling everyone here that JT-P is responsible for everything that Angus does? :-)

I was just coming here to post that, of the 3 AIM shares I am invested in, that this was (surprisingly given the activity of the past year), the sanest board of posters.
I may have to revise that after reading todays posts.
Still, the way the UKOG and UJO boards have been of late, the bar is not particularly high to start with!

Tymers,
You predicted 8p for 31/10 and were out by a factor of 7x the actual SP
You then predicted 8p specifically for 29/12 (a Sunday) and were out by a factor of more than 9x the actual SP.
You have since predicted 8p for Q2, but AFTER a consolidation, a massive moving of the goal posts.
You talk a lot about trolls and 'no engagement', but why should anyone take notice of anything you post with your history of getting things so wrong?

Just to qualify my previous post, when I stated Q3, I see September as the earliest point, but possibly Q4, so agree on timing

I'm sure you'll change your tune when they get to work at Saltfleetby with their Picks and shovels and start carting all that gas out on wheelbarrows, or however it is they do these things!
Q3 target for me.

Happy New Year, YL.
Good to see you back here with your own particular brand of optimism :-)
I would argue that implementing the online investor questions announced at the investor presentation, both when they said they would (i.e. on time), and updating with responses monthly as they said they would (also on time) could be classed as a success.
Can you at least give them that (and perhaps without adding a negative slant)?

Well said Scisborg.
The predictions thing also applies to those who were massively out and come back saying it was only a 'joke' poll anyway (despite regularly detailing their research and potential flow rates in order to qualify their way out predictions).
Their barely concealed embarrassment at being so wrong being covered up by their rage at others and name-calling.

Will stick to official news from now on, as like most other boards here now, little of actual relevance posted any more, and if you are not 100% positive, 100% of the time you just get labelled a troll, swampy or de-ramper.
Good luck to all genuine investors

For balance, I will add Status Quo and 'Down, down' to the mix, for YL.
How about Etta James and 'Trust in Me' for GL (JT-P), and the Rembrandts with 'I'll (oil) be there for you'
I'll get my coat

I think you're asking a bit much there tbh, JayKay1.
Didn't it suddenly become a 'joke' poll as soon as it looked likely you were going to win?
Well done anyway, from a more conservative ukogger (a realist?)

… to all long-suffering ANGS holders.
Let's hope the Angus theme for 2020 is 'the only way is up'. The lyrics seem quite apt for this past year anyway.
I am sure you can add your own tunes to the Angus top 10.

2 good points here, namely 'so many looking for their quick buck and have no interest in the company long term', and 'you need...the guts to blame yourself when you sell at a loss'.
Many too quick to blame anyone else but themselves if things go wrong despite AIM being well-known as high risk.

Happy with my position and the direction this is headed, along with how things stand at year end, the placing debacle aside - this is done and dusted so time to move on from this (imo).
Will await news on multiple fronts in the coming months.

argus1/JayKay1,
Please take your 'points' about HUR over to that board (if you dare).
It's continually being brought up here purely as a wind up exercise as part of your long-standing and petty feuding, and it's becoming really tiresome (imo)

Not surprised to see this board has turned into a witch hunt with the continual calling out of other posters and trawling through their historical posts to 'prove' petty points.
Little, or no 'on-topic' discussion here any more, like most boards now, and it's becoming almost as bad as twitter with the name-calling and abuse.
Will await official news as pointless looking here for anything useful.
gla

argus1,
Can you expand?
In what way does an RNS about a further loan balance reduction suggest a 'green light that all is in hand with the water ingress problem'? Seems a stretch.

Tymers,
Seeing as you have such great knowledge in all things investing, please advise how you managed to get the original 31/10 prediction so spectacularly wrong (8p vs actual 1.15), and how you expect ukog to hit your 8p 31/12 prediction with only a couple of trading days to go.
Actually, you have specifically stated on several occasions that it will be at 8p by 29/12 which you do not even seem to have noticed to be a Sunday.

I consider myself more of a 'neutral' here, rather than the 2 extremes often seen, although I'm sure some may disagree on that. I have stayed for SF and the potential to recover some of my paper losses.
It seems fairly clear to me that for any NEW investors, this (SF) COULD appear to be a decent long-shot punt, but only if they are prepared to wait around 9-12 months for any return. I still see any potential returns as more modest than company predictions, however.
For EXISTING investors (pre-June RNS with paper losses, or having sold at a big loss), I totally understand their position re: board and past failures and how they see otherwise.
2 distinct camps here and little, or no concession being given from either to the other's viewpoint, which is never likely to change, hence the continual going round in circles with the same arguments.
Perhaps one point folk may be able to agree on, 2020 really will make, or break Angus.

Or....22% of something is better than 22% of nothing.
The 200-300 bopd figures are being quoted to manage expectations imo.
I was not expecting Balcombe to have a huge impact, so if deemed profitable, it will all help with cashflow prior to SF.
Glass still half full after 2 updates today.

It's quite a sizeable trade compared to the days' volume though.
Hopefully, just taking advantage of the 'good news' day, but would prefer to see any selling held to a much lower % of adv.
good weekend all
