More women onboard, never a bad thing. Calm level heads in general and with attention to detail.

So goddamn typical of these AIM CEOs to say bugger all and let the share price fall through the floor, instead of promptly clarifying matters.

Is this Eric guy still roaming around freely? Why hasn't he been arrested or at least hauled in to account?

Is he on the run or what?

Tbh cash, you're asking for the lottery numbers there. Bigmj won't have that kind of crystal ball, mate.

Some of team LION are in Finland this week discussing the gold mine. Not that I think info will be forthcoming on that anytime soon but we should know a bit more come mid-December when the AGM is held.

Generally, if you are moving from internal account to internal account with the same provider there shouldn't be.

I mean, you could ask them?

Hmm...but then wouldn't spinning the fintech out of LION and leaving us with just the mines totally invalidate why we needed new admission documents for the 'change of business/direction'?

What would be the point of all that work to accomodate the emphasis on fintech if you're going to get shut of the fintech? They could have just kept the old Kolar Gold blueprint rather than monumentally waste time getting us suspended for nigh on a year.

I think this is very much going to be a fintech story first and foremost. The trademark classifications involved with software and electronic mediums attest to that imo.

Could have.

We also had this from Brad at Railsbank the other day:

Railsbank liked this tweet.

Not saying that this is what's happening or will happen but interesting that they like the idea, which is just basically a random, hopeful statement from a pi. Makes you wonder....:)

Same for me CheckOut, and anybody else with HL, who at least seem to be adhering to HMRC rules.

I went for Option 1 - easiest and cheapest method and also you are straight back in there online on a relist. Afaik, you can only phone trade with certificates and have then to pay more (usually recorded delivery) to ensure they get to the return address.

It's the one thing outside of the comms situation I was annoyed about, the forcible removal of my shares that I wanted in my ISA. Now I have the hassle and expense of getting them back in on a relist as well as potentially having to pay CGT. Not what I set out to do. But hey, at this stage I'll just be glad to see us back trading next year. It's preferable to having your money wiped. Fingers crossed it pans out okay for us.

here = hear.

Thanks bigmj for your thoughts and hope the new job is going well. Holders here do appreciate your input and the comfort and sense of rationale you bring to the board.

Because for the life of me, I cannot understand why CP leaves comms until the last push up, seemingly unflustered about how it looks, leaving the company open to attack from trolls and stressing out genuine shareholders. And yes I think he's a good guy.

We know the news will come, CP has never dodged that, and during his last interview I made a checklist of things we were expecting on the run up to cancellation. Everything was covered as he said and of course we were glad to here that. But to leave it until the last day really looks careless at best. I know CP is a busy man, and I totally understand his laid back Ozzie approach but this is AIM in the UK and the support of your shareholders is critical, especially big holders. Surely, by now, company comms can be tightened up, RNS's often littered with spelling mistakes that could have been spell checked in a basic Word program before being allowed to be released, etc. All of this goes a long way to looking more professional than LION has done so far.

I'm very much for not over panicking and letting the company get on with it. I know they've worked very hard and there's been a mountain of detail involved because I know my own company's navigation of the app B2B2C market and it is fraught with delays, dates pushed back, legalities and a helluva lot of work, testing, retesting, etc. But how you come across to others is important too. It'd just be nice to be informed of things in a nice easy timeframe now and then without gnawing our fingers to stumps waiting for the final bell close of play most times.

Thank you, it's not 'crap'. It's very likely that's what happened here. They know coming off market is not favourable to them or us. Of course it looks terrible. But something had to give and the view coming back from mgmt is it was a risk worth taking to get where they/we need to be with a 'superior product'.

What is 'crap' has been the comms, the keeping investors in the dark without the slightest bone up, to the last minute and I want to either raise it at the AGM myself (I went to the last one) or if I can't make it, hopefully someone else will. Or bigmj can relay that back from the shopfloor as it were.

As mentioned we simply don't know what legalities and additional work has been required here. I just wish they'd kept us in the loop more. The wait and the uncertainty has been a horrorshow for most people.

"Could have completed whatever necessary documents etc... even if it meant updating at a later date to avoid all this."

We don't know that for sure, though. We haven't been involved in the planning a development around all of this and the documents may have had to take a back seat to the B2B2C and rebranding. These things can and do take time. Especially with a change of direction.

No we don't know. But neither do we know (or should necessarily trust) one another here on an anon forum with many agendas.

But here's a concept: how about we just let the process proceed for a while. Let's get to the AGM and see what comes out of it.

I naively assumed we'd all invested to see this succeed. But the nitpicking gets to the point such people make others wonder if they even WANT a decent outcome.

Of course we should ask tough questions of the BoD, but for heaven's sake, let people enjoy the small victories when we get them. Last week we knew a lot less than we do now.

Some, spacecentre, I can't think who, who just turn up overnight and literally knock everything positive and sides only with anyone saying negative stuff.

Such an unbiased saint aren't you.

I think they've probably trundled across from Shareprophets - they've just published their 'LION cancellation to AIM' piece this morning as if it's new news - so no surprise some haven't a clue what's going on IN the actual company, lol.

Such people, honestly, lol...if their houses were on fire they'd phone SP/TW, BMD or Doc H before they phoned the fire brigade.

With respect, it's like the 3 stooges just turned up to amuse everyone.

Comedy gold. There's an RNS tab above provided for you to catch up with stuff. Use it.

Q1 even.

"I am not seeing any updates on the testing of the platform,"

I wouldn't necessarily expect any, it's internal testing and therefore the numbers/figures may be confidential. What matters is that they have a tested and soon-to-be available product for public use. Let's see if they can stick to that for Q1.

Yes, I think there's undeniably a product there in terms of it's readiness when the XGB trademark goes live, hopefully in Dec/Jan. If you want to write it off a dead money that's up to you. But I can't live my life by your miserable outlook and I think there's a lot more hope than there was. True, we are not out of the wood yet, and comms badly need reforming but for once it's feels as if we're going the right way.

If I'm wrong I will happily accept all egg throwing in my face after Q2.
