Nonsense TDT. Shares can be suspended for other reasons. Sometimes due to M&A or other fundamental change to the business.

On second thought, the fact that he wasn't canned for the tweet also says something........

Sorry. I take that back. Looks like he's still at Citic.

At first glance it sounds like maybe MH got canned for his tweet......?

You know something, having now calmed down I actually would like to apologise to you.

What started out as an interest in the company from me has turned into an argument which was not my intention. I see now that nothing I say makes any difference to your commitment to this share, so my constantly going on about it does nothing except annoy you guys and disturb your peace of mind, which was not my intention at the outset. I let this go on far too long and for that I am sorry. I genuinely hope you all have a nice weekend and you all do well for yourselves.

Quote from CarsCoffee a month ago at 58p:

“Exactly, so the lowest anybody is in to these shares is 49p so that should represent the absolute bottom unless you think they are going bankrupt.“

I will now do as you suggest and leave for the day. Feel free to talk s*** about me while I’m not looking.

Well, at least you’ve now read some of the accounts of a company you own.

Call it lies if you want. Everyone has access to the same information. Even if some choose not to look at it......

What do you expect the loss for 2020 will be? If they raised £500M and then lost hundreds of millions in the year, they’re back where they started.

The Q1 reports shows that they’re still in trouble re going concern because they still owe more than have

It’s not lies. It’s right there in the accounts.

I addressed this point already. They raised money then made a loss of over £100M. If they make another loss in Q2 they’ll be back to where they started re going concern.

I’m Actually feeling quite angry now.

ANYONE PUMPING A STOCK ONLINE WITHOUT FIRST SO MUCH AS READING THE ACCOUNTS SHOULD BE ASHAMED OF THEMSELVES

You’re not seriously telling me you haven’t read the accounts?!

“We draw attention to Note 1 in the financial statements, which indicates that the ability of the Group and Company to continue as a going concern is subject to material uncertainty.“

Last set of accounts. Since then they raised capital and long term debt to cover the short term liabilities.....

..... then they lost another £100M and continue to lose money.

No worries here my foot

It’s not often you see the auditors raise a going concern issue in the accounts of a ftse 350 company. But sure, let’s pretend there’s nothing to fear.

Could go bankrupt. But sure, nothing to fear.

RH, I'm not exactly sitting here crying into my coffee but I take your point.

I've seen plenty of objectively sad stories on the BBs.

Glad you're up £150k. I'm up but not nearly as much as that. Good for you.

"I don’t really think any of us know what we are doing truthfully."

This genuinely makes me so sad.

Nobody has to buy any share ever. Just because they're for sale doesn't mean you need to buy them. There's no shame in not knowing enough to buy shares, we don't need to be experts in everything. And there's no shame in buying a balanced portfolio of funds and making modest gains. Over time it really builds up. That's where a large portion of my money goes, and despite market dips recently I'm still up in the year to date because I have gold in my portfolio.

It makes me very sad to see PIs blindly believing the hype put out on BBs and ppl here encouraging others to 'average down' on a company that could well go bankrupt soon. They pump the stock at £5, £4, £3.... 30p. Their tone doesn't seem to change. And they dominate the BB because they get ppl so riled up against 'negative' posters.

Of course it's only my opinion that this is a bad investment. Other may genuinely believe it is a good investment. But why do people only pay attention to the pumpers and dismiss other posters as maggots? So far, these pumpers have only cost ppl money and they continue to encourage ppl to put in more and more. Yet they categorise ppl who are urging caution as the problem while they play the role of 'saviours' and 'defenders of the share'. It's genuinely sad.

Nobody would come onto LSE pumping a stock in which they'd lost 98% of their investment.

They'd happily pump a stock that has lost 98% of its value if they personally have only lost 40%. The difference is entirely psychological.

I'll admit I used to read those types of messages, nod my head and silent curse out MMs and shorters. That's how I lost money on Metro......

Now I'll a little older and ....well maybe just older.

@Crakatowa, they're not going to believe you have no axe to grind. They will assume you're a shorter trying to drive down sentiment. They'll say you, me and Richard are the same person because we have the same view. They'll say that the drop in sp is a good thing, that they have complete faith in Mr Stoll to do something (dunno what yet). They'll say people only bash a great share. They'll say this is market maker manipulation. They'll say that the fact that AML can barely pay the bills is unimportant and too short-term. Then they'll call you part of the maggot army and then filter your messages. Save your breath mate.

Surely the normal procedure is that the new nomad would have sent the BoD a letter of engagement to sign. This letter could be sitting on CS's desk right now. So it would be entirely true that we don't yet have a nomad, that it's the BoD's intention to get a new nomad in time and there are no 'material obstacles' that they're aware of (city speak for 'it's already on my desk').
