RE: Am I right in thinking....?9 Nov 2015 14:57
Roc_XEL says: The thing is at least you are balanced when you write and discussing rather than thinking only your opinion matters, which makes it always pleasant debating with you GS, but it has to be said that you will never ever criticize anything that is being done by the board.
I'm not sure what you want me to criticize?
- RT CLEARLY had some questionable ways of doing business which have come to light after the fact. There is little point in me commenting on hindsight as it changes nothing. In my business (and family) life I believe in taking responsibility for my own actions and learning (if possible) from my mistakes. So...the old QPP world was a painful lesson. However, I took control of my own destiny and chose to invest further based on what I could see happening. I am now fractionally down and have a very substantial holding (in my own terms).
- Silence from the BoD? I personally have had no criticism of this approach. Say what is required and only when it is required, instead of long, convoluted RNS and frequently containing errors. I have nothing to complain about there.
- Lack of clarity on the direction: why should I start whining about it. This is coming. I'd rather have a well-researched and considered strategy in January than a laughable joke full of superficial words in November.
- 90p instead of £1? I was thoroughly ****ed off when I first read the RNS, then had a coffee and a dog walk, read a pile of discussion elsewhere and decided that 90p which goes through the courts more easily (with 10p next year) suits me better than £1 which is refused now.
- Indro isnt making any headway or changes: anyone who says this has never worked in a technology company that is changing direction and has a new CEO at the same time. Fact. I can wait until January for his document.
- SFO investigation: it is what it is and I am VERY confident that the current company AND shareholders will not be penalised. Why? Its purely an opinion based on a ton of discussion between lawyers on the QSAG forum.
-Consolidation: we all have to make decisions based on our own circumstances. I would have preferred not to have a consolidation as I believe we could make far more without it. As things stand.....I'm fine with it: it just means I will probably put my £102k elsewhere as I can make more from it.
I'm happy to stand up and shout, Roc_XEL........but I need something to shout about :-)
