It's because this is AIM, so there's effectively zero regulation.

Of course, any company's NOMAD is meant to act as an arbiter of legit behaviour and truthfulness, when it comes to said company's actions and communications (I know, I know, don't all laugh at once. Most AIM NOMADs will sign off on any load of old rubbish without even reading it, after having been treated to a liquid lunch at The Ivy).

Making matters worse is the fact that WH Ireland is UKOG's broker as well as NOMAD, so that's like asking a fox to take really good care of a henhouse. Conflict of interest, just perhaps?

Sadly I think Jaffy's quite correct. A "next instalment" is more than very likely.

Adrian still talking utter rampy nonsense from his alleged millionaire's pad in somewhere like Park Lane, I see...

Sheesh... next I suppose someone's going to mention long-term Milankovitch solar cycles and the effect of orbital obliquity?

Apparently the earth is currently in a temperate period between inevitably recurring ice ages... but since such temperate periods tend to last between 40,000 and 100,000 years, the next seriously big chill won't take place exactly soon.

(Mind you, when snowball earth does happen again, such is his obsessive zealot's commitment that BV will probably have found a way to still be posting from beyond the grave on how utterly fabulous an investment opportunity ANGS is. Not that anyone will be around to take any notice, but hey, when has that ever stopped him?)

BV, utterly unlike yourself, I have put forward opinions as to why the ANGS SP is nowhere near the levels you've been constantly assuring it would be for years. Simply put, IMO it's all about the disparity between repaying incurred debt within the proscribed time frames of said debt versus generatable revenue within said time frames.

Do you have anything approaching a view to explain the reality of things re ANGS? Or would you prefer (as usual) to pretend that reality doesn't exist?

Do feel free to duck this awkward though obvious question for the umpteenth time...

Why not mention SOU's decline? Because I've not researched SOU to any extent, so have nothing valid to post on that subject (leaving aside the fact that it'd be inappropriate to post on SOU on this board).

For the record, among many other companies, I've also not commented on or mentioned declines at SPO, BCE, ZAMZ, CNG, LEND, EST, FCAP 0QIG or SCHO.

Needless to say, you run away from the questions, BV. It's hardly a surprise, because facts aren't your friends, but it remains mildly amusing...

Jaffy, barely worth discussing but you asked me:-

"Who's made you change your tune

You were adamant this was all over."

I merely clarified my opinion (namely that I haven't changed my tune in the slightest), since you were clearly labouring under some sort of misapprehension.

Perhaps best then for you not to ask questions of people, if you're liable to get all aerated about an honest answer?

Jaffy, I merely politely answered a question you directly asked me. In other words, I gave you the courtesy of a reply.

"Courtesy"... perhaps a word you need to look up?

Care to advance an opinion as to why ANGS's MCap is nowhere near where you were assuring anyone who'd listen it would be, BV? Or care to explain why the SP has been on a downward slide since the announcement of a production-doubling sidetrack?

...thought not. You were always a fan of pretending that inconvenient facts don't exist.

@Jaffy, my personal opinion hasn't changed one tiny little bit from the DavidGreece-backed "runway in the jungle!" / "We're in Target!" / "We've appointed a major distributor!" (a tinpot company selling novelty golf accessories) / AberdeenMan & Mr Selfridge PR company / BrokerMan aka Gold Bulluin "Amit can't win on a show of hands at the EGM, honest!" days.

(Now there's a salutory history lesson...)

Having said that, I am also a pragmatist and know it is literally impossible to prove a negative. Therefore, although I am personally rock solid certain as to the eventual outcome (if it ever becomes clear), literally the only thing for anyone to do is wait - and praising Amit to the stars and back or slamming him for being a good for nothing shyster won't change the price of cocoa.

Say what you like, Adrian. As has been noted countless times before, they clearly breed 'em both stupid and deceptive in Salfords.

The tweet (and it being seized upon both by paid PR posters and by disingenuous short-term traders) comes as no surprise.

UKOG needs (yet again) to switch horses to another illusory nag. As soon as Weald oil was revealed to be a substance-free fairy tale as far as the company was concerned, it quickly saddled up the Turkey turkey, solely to have something to base its never-ending "jam tomorrow" promises on. Now it's become entirely visible that that particular steed has no legs either and is fit only for the glue factory, another moonshine and fairy dust story is urgently required.

Sando has never changed his deceptive and disingenuous tune. He just merely swaps instruments to play it on when he is forced by cold, hard reality to do so.

BP, I really hope - both for ANGS shareholders and the company itself - that the putative replacement global financing deal is in fact elusive, rather than illusive.

However, the ongoing radio silence on this facility (which to me seems absolutely crucial) suggests that both descriptions may be true.

Everything that continues to be said here - and by both sides - has all been said a million times before over the last 6 and a half years (yes, it's really been that long). So sadly, the repetitions are all entirely futile.

Okay so we have yet another line in the sand with a date attached from Amit. It's the 15th (again yes, really) update since the 23rd Sept 2021, when the existence of some sort of a deal was first claimed and the 14th since the original first date for conclusion of the alleged deal (that being "within Q1 2022") was given on 14th Dec 2021.

Presumably the only recourse available to holders of CTAG shares is (as ever) to wait and see if anything actually materialises.

Talking the company and its CEO up is an utter waste of time, not least because there is zero supporting evidence justifying doing so. Equally, slamming the company and its CEO is every bit as much an utter waste of time, even though there's a whole host of evidence to support holding a negative opinion.

So why not just wait until the latest deadline is reached? And if/when it's missed like all its predecessors, might as well just wait some more.... after all, what else is there to do?

Spot the bot-repeated post... *yawn*

...and that alleged conclusion is one of two possible outcomes. Posters may decide - based on the available evidence (of which there is hardly a dearth)- which of those two outcomes is more probable.

Not in the least. Many big pharma names (Merck, Moderna, Lilly to name just three) have indeed announced their participation in various of the fireside chats forming the MS Global Healthcare Conference this year - and as participants, each is presenting during one or more of said chats.

A few teensy things.

1. Relying on claims published on the CTAG website as being gospel truth has evidentially not proven to be a flawless strategy.

2. It of course remains more than a tad tricky to prove a negative.

3. I would suggest that, semantically speaking, there is a marked difference between a "participant" and a mere "attendee". It remains to be seen which category (if either) Amit falls into.

A teensy point.

What you say is so obviously true that it's not worth saying at all.

And it's not as if anyone would be brain-crushingly dumb enough to give Amit any (more) money now... so what's the point? CTAG is and always has been a 419 scam - but for years it's been an inactive one and it's never going to be re-activated.

Surely this just represents a return to expected production volumes (90 - 95,000 therms a day), following a period of maintenance?

We'll presumably see the same sort of thing (a decrease, then a return to typical output values) as and when the permanent pipework gets installed, which is now forecast to happen some time in October.
