We can only presume he’s wrote that sloppy RNS after a night out on the jars celebrating SR negotiations
Taking a new role doesn’t necessarily mean he needs the money, maybe he doesn’t like being part time and having too much time to himself.
Some people like to stay busy and let’s be 100% honest, if a company approached any of you folk on here to work part time for a pretty penny, there’s a high probably you’d do the same.
As for people complaining about every single thing which happens on this share, posting doom & gloom day in day out. I have been trying to work out why they don’t just sell out if Colin is supposedly going to run AST into the ground etc etc. My conclusion is they refuse to sell because deep down they know AST have a valuable asset and a sale could very well be just round the corner. If not they’d take what they have left and move on. Crying about it on here won’t change anything, other than deramp the SP.
Just my observation anyway, I’m sure others may disagree. GLA
Another day in the land of AST. However frustrating and stressful this scenario has been for me over two years invested, Ive grown numb to the disappointment of their RNS stating the same thing everytime.
I just hope I can look back on this in a few years after selling out (hopefully in profit) and think what an absolute circus act this was. However well worth the wait!
Jokes a side though, let’s hope next week brings positive news! GLA

News was not due start of September. The amendments were due to be submitted in the first week of Sept. These were submitted on time - as per last RNS.
0.008385 with interactive investor. Must be your broker
We’re 1% up, I wouldn’t crack open the Dom Pérignon just yet ;)
I think it’ll linger at around similar prices for the rest of the week, up until Friday if no RNS has arrived by then. Problem is we’ve gone through this before which I feel puts potential investors off and IMO doesn’t seem to have as much anticipation as previous “news imminent bull runs”.
Not quite sure why, the outlook is arguably better than has being in the past, due to “continuing to have Positive discussions” regarding strategic review.
What is there to say? There’s no news, average amounts of trades and people aren’t just waiting.
Concentrate on your own business, rather than worrying about what others are doing and clogging chat with drivel.
1.1mill buy at 0.87? Must be confident being 17% up already
Was thinking the same, 550% rise. Life changing for people I imagine, congrats to them!
From Aug 09, 2018 RNS - “Based on the assurances received by ARSO this week, the Company believes that the permit should finally be awarded in September 2018, although there can be no guarantee of this.” Let’s hope since the amendments were submitted as planned last week, that we are on track. The game of tennis I’ve been locked into for 2 years, between AST and ARSO going back and forth, may well be approaching an end. GLA
Can’t do right for doing wrong. Would you guys just prefer to be left in the dark? Or would you rather have updates on current affairs? There was nothing wrong with the RNS, you’re just spitting your dummy out because of a 10% drop. If you’re that confident in your investment and the permit being granted along with a T/O offer, just sit back and relax.
I’d you “read the RNS carefulyyyyy”, you will see ARSO have indeed “looked at it” before. Hence why they requested amendments to made to the application, in order to comply with new legislation. Making statements like “they’ve not even looked at it” just shows how much you have researched on the situation.
This is aim, 9 times out of 10 people make money in buying on rumour and selling on news. You can’t make money on buying shares after a t/o has being announced.
Colin is a chess player after all...
I agree Walters. Without that RNS everyone would of been sat on their hands still I imagine. Sometimes have take 2 steps back, to take 10 steps forward, however can’t help but feel for the investors who sold out. Hopefully they got back in after the RNS flood
With abit of luck if this gets back to 2p I’ll be able to afford a hair transplant after this last week of undue stress
Amen to that, can’t see it being anything less than hindering to the process.
Hats off to the £120k buy the other day, I’m sure they’re up a few pennies now
FROM TWITTER; Walters @sipptrading #AST Just Spoke with Jana at the British Consulate in Slovenia, they have an emergency meeting booked for tomorrow morning with the Environment Agency to discuss the permit problems. This was arranged this morning, she informed me that Colin has been made aware.
