TDT,

I agree with the idea of personnel changes at the BOD - however, incremental.
No need to burn down the house in one go.
Once the first one has been retired the rest have an opportunity to reflect on their job performance and (lack) of results.

I have met RY some years ago and also thought that he was a genuine person - so far we are on the same page.
However, watching 14 years of performance, I have come to the conclusion that he is just a thick skinned operator that does not really care beyond having the snout in the trough. Just my opinion of course!
I have learned over the years that it is irrelevant what somebody says - what counts is observing their behaviour and drawing conclusions from that. Anyone can bulls* it!

Tr1ck,

I am in - expenses only sounds a bargain. :-)

Geng,

"It would certainly go through now",

Please speak for yourself as an opportunist - do not assume you can speak for me!
I have moderated my expectations over the years, however there is a bottom line expectation which I am not prepared to discus - certainly not 3 or 4p !!

Think it would be quite unreasonable to expect instant feed back from the attendees of the meeting - they are all in the pub celebrating! Enjoy!!

A big thanks to all who made it there today!

Lowbands,

Both, release the TEO AND STEP ASIDE!!

BoratforCEO,

Please re-apply for the position of CEO in a few months when the position will become vacant - if he survives in his role after tomorrow!

Sorry,
We already have a Borat as CEO. ??

May be Sunak should also consider a "windfall tax" on VAT, given the unexpected "profits"!!!
Would seem reasonable to me, but is obviously is not going to happen.

Given Britain's precarious situation after Brexit, I would suggest to keep as many companies prepared to invest in Britain on board!
Just a thought.

Geng,

All expenses paid jolly or not - I get the feeling that it might not be a joyful occasion if he actually makes it there.

Geng,

Disagree with your opinion on this occasion.

MD & Geng

I have read Dave85's msg 2/4 @ 13:52 with regards to voting - and other considerations.
Very eloquent explanation of the process - worth a read Imo, if you have missed it.

Called Barklays' Smart Investor Account Rep this morning - happy to take instruction of proxy vote over the phone.

NO vote for just short of one million shares.

Kammy,

I definitely do not have the will to put up with RY and his cronies for 15 years - THAT ALONE makes the decision straight forward for me.

CT,

Not good enough...........I will not be intimidated.
Voting no changes nothing from the situation we were in last week from where I am looking.
We did not even believe that there was a buyer then.
I would regret loosing my " investment" but I am prepared to chance a no vote, mainly as others have said due to the structure of the deal - and the breathtaking arrogance and ineptitude of this B oD.

MadMat,

The man has absolutely no credibility left whatsoever IMO!!

MadMat,

There might be a clue in your moniker!

Giving RY any scope to start anything else is just a totally ridiculous idea.
I would not trust him with my grandchildren's pocket money.

Are you serious??

The most distasteful aspect of this proposed deal is to have to be at the mercy of Robin Young and fellow BoD.
They never got it that keeping your investors on-site whilst sometimes painful, does have it's benefits when it comes to trust . None here. Will definitely vote no as I had written off my investment in my mind already.

Robin sell now, with payment now - and f* ck off.

Ha, ha,

I would agree in this particular case of the definition.
There are others where a bit more long term imagination is required though.
Unfortunately AMC fits your description - with hindsight!
