Glad you posted jonesrichard and you’re okay - not an easy time at the moment

You might well be right DGR1989 but at least it’s a bit positive! (I’ll take anything)!

No I know but maybe wrongly I’m assuming he has

I do think it’s a sign from CF - he can’t buy more bec he’ll get jumped on - otherwise why on earth would he just buy that amount?

Hi Beerbull, I’m sorry you’ve sold. It is gutting that you and so many people have lost money. Yes I have lost money but it wasn’t ever really for me to use in my lifetime. It was totally for my children for when they have families plus one of them is special needs so it would have been security for him. Whilst there is still some hope of this coming good (and I do hear what you and so many are saying), I just feel I want to stick with it. It was money I’d written off in a way for my children and I just want to see what happens in the next few weeks. I’d reached my target number of shares so was happy with the amount I’d got so not tempted or haven’t been since I reached that target to buy more. But good luck to you and I hope things work out for you

I’d love to get away from this board at the moment - I feel I need to read it but it’s hard to read endless posts that make you feel worse! We all know the situation but for those of us that have decided not to sell I think we all are aware of what’s happened/what could happen. Plus it’s hard to read the posts you’d like to read!

I haven't read all the posts this morning - but I'm still here as well. I feel so gutted that Sirius made the BBC news this morning and I got to see it down South but for all the wrong reasons - just a newspaper review saying what we all know. I've had friends emailing me so it's big news - hubby still doesn't know. Luckily he's working in Singapore at the moment. But I'm dreading telling him - he will not be happy - just will think now he got it so right and I got it so wrong - whatever happens now - even if in 5 years I still am proved right! But I and others like me who were excited about being invested in this project shouldn't be made to feel it's our fault bec we were so positive. I'm sure no one went out to influence anyone and if others were influenced they shouldn't have been bec it's the number 1 rule. Some of the posters who read it right but posted in a matterafact way did make me think and I respected their posts but I wanted to keep all my shares in spite of their more negative thoughts so I totally blame myself and we can only stick up for what we genuinely believe on this board or else you're being fake. Yes I admit I am emotionally attached - but I'm paying for it now bec, apart from the potential loss of money, I genuinely feel so sad the company is in this negative position and I'm just sorry for everyone who's lost money and everyone like me who's worried about what's going to happen. We might have 6 months of this so I'm hoping we can get back to a normalish board with those of us still holding discussing where we're all at with developments etc. I'm hoping against hope, not just for me but for all of us here and everyone connected with Sirius that something is pulled out of the bag. I do still think it will be - and if I can keep my shares I'm prepared to wait for as long as it takes (even if I'm not here). I feel like I'm posting on this board and I'm down but not out and hopefully as normal - just saying how I feel! But for those of us sticking with it we could be in for a very rocky few months but it's not like it's been easy over the last year but luckily there's been some light hearted moments as well which I'm hoping will return! Even some off topic arguments to get us through the next few months!

With all the posts not sure if this has been posted :

Thanks Emily. I’m just a bit gutted for everyone. It’s been such a journey and haven’t even been here that long! Hopefully things will look better in a few months for everyone. Good luck to you as well - think they’ll be a lot of us holding!

I think it’s been a **** day. It’s days like this you see the worst in people who seem to dine out on others who we’ve seen today feel at pretty much rock bottom. I hope everyone’s okay especially the poster who took his children to school this morning - Jonathan I think. But we’ve also seen a lot of us all in the same boat trying to make each other feel better! FWIW I’ve just listened to the Investor Presentation again - it’s going to be very volatile until we hear from them again and I’m hoping it will be a lot sooner than six months - but we all make our own decisions and having listened properly I’m def seeing this through. Re my confidence over the last week - well I got that wrong - and don’t get me wrong reading all the posters on here and FB (some I think we’ll meaning) saying get out now with something is not easy to read when I’ve got it wrong before but I’ve never been influenced by anyone and it’s down to me. Haven’t had a drink for over a month but might have one tonight!

Wish I could get away from Sirius this morning but can’t get it out of my mind. It’s good to read the posts from the regular posters (not so much certain ones - #wedontneedittoday) and a lot of us are in the same boat - it makes you think you’re not alone in your worrying! (and I hope everyone’s feeling slightly better now). What’s so hard is the build is going so well - and I do think that is great. The problem is even if I doubled my holding at these prices I’d still only get my average down to 12p from 21p and I do think if we get back to 12p one day the rest will follow and we’ll be okay). I just can’t put any more money in - whatever anyone thinks I always topped up before bec there always seemed a plan. I do think they’ve allowed plenty of time for another plan - just hopefully one that will be good to all of us as well. At least we’re not at 3p still! Well we weren’t at the beginning of this post!

I’m hoping they won’t need anything like 6 months to sort this out and they’ve just given themselves that much time to get away from these deadlines. I’m going to hang in there but my track record speaks for itself! I’m also going to try and get on with other stuff - everything else is carrying on as normal - sun’s out and hopefully this is just another day of those days of setbacks that I always told myself I was expecting. Not buying and not selling. Good luck though to everyone and I’m just going to think of something worse that could have happened and that already makes me feel better

Sound was so bad on my iPhone I tried to improve and then lost it completely - so that was helpful!

Sorry Jonathan I must have missed your post but I’m guessing you’re feeling not great either - look after yourself as well

Forex - I’m not so sure my husband is going to give me a hug! Luckily he’s away for two weeks! I know I’ve always been Happy Clappy but that’s just how I honestly felt - just felt really excited to be invested and part of it. This mornings been a huge shock for all of us and all my friends were right and posters on here - I should have de-risked. Right now I feel I’ve let my family down as well but actually until I sell at a loss or unless the very worst does happen I haven’t. Let’s just see what happens and maybe we’ll live to fight another day - but one things for sure you will get another hug from your kids after school and that’s worth so much more - maybe one day I might get one from my husband?!

Forex - please don’t say that - you did and are doing your best - whatever happens you were looking out for your family. You are not alone and a lot of us are in this together. If you were a Lth then maybe just walk away from Sirius for 6 months, it not like you were going to use the money in the short term - don’t look at board, block it out from your mind and just see what happens. We’re all gutted and so disappointed but look after yourself and let’s just see what happens

Oh sorry -rrrRRRrrr was just watching news - must have gone from Yorkshire - maybe it does tie in with FB post!

Or Luxembourg - but don’t think Yorkshire!

Hi wwguk - I can’t see it now - maybe it was taken down bec it is a private group and group doesn’t want things posted there discussed on here? Especially when some posters on here make personal comments?

Panlinea - I’ve seen the post - thanks for putting it on here - it’s very short just as Panlinea said but with quite a few comments. It’s still in news feed rather on the page
