3 percent down now...

Probably not but once it clears the test of being a suitable related party transaction i'd expect that it would be a given that he will get appointed either way.

Theres a lot of it. But yes, there are questions too - bear in mind we shouldnt look from when we became a shell but instead look from the appointment of Syms (hence my posts yesterday about how a simple RNS could possibly put a lot of things to bed)

What we still know is that the main man is still here and that he hasnt recently been buying, suggesting that talks are in play.

We know that there are a number of possible co's.

We know that he took part in the OO and increased his stake on the open market.

Now, I could be a bit off on this but my loose interpretation is that because Antos holds over 10 percent and as we suspect it may be a firm that he has substantial control of, there needs to be a review on the subject of a related party transaction. That review needs to establish if for BOU and it's shareholders, if a deal is fair and part of that deal may establish a lock in for Antos of some sort. This adds to the complexity of an RTO, something that is already complex.

Add to that the time it takes for paperwork to go between various legal people and then to agree to amendments. Getting time to just sit down and talk can take a week in itself.

We can sit here all day and make inflammatory comments that help no one but what you need to ask yourself is has your case to buy here changed since you bought in? Then decide what you do based on that.

The main issue CC is with comments like "PH have blocked the deal" and the slating them.

It's not necessary nor is it factual. If it was and if this was "knowledge", then surely persons would not have been able to trade like they have been and moving (and attempting to) move others elsewhere.

I'm not going to deny there arent questions to be asked here but those questions will be answered in time. We are only a month into Syms appointment - his appointment is to drive this matter and make sure its all done right.

uNkwnTrader - completely agree! Said that many times - if anything, its gotten better as we got the open offer, Antos took in full with excess and bought on the open market.

Bit of poppycock there Rusty - I wont say where you've put your funds from here as it'll be pretty obvious to anyone thats a seasoned poster here.

For the record I dont think Antos will be buying as he can't at present. What we do know is that he bought more on the open market.

PH stand to make quite a bit here so the best deal for them ultimately is the best deal for us.

We all have the same interests now which is to get something away and as I pointed out in my original post at the start of this thread the latest RNS's were put out in such a way to not create panic/fear. With knowing that there had been emails being passed about and whilst its nice for the bod to articulate a reply to holders, their resource would be better spent not replying with what we may already know but instead moving forward with the identification of a suitable target and establishing a value here. I dont get the impression that the bod are fed up of the emails as the tones have been professional and polite but for them too it must get frustrating to provide the same/similar replies to each one.

Not quite the way I was trying to word it but perhaps makes a better point does A_Milli.

I was simple encouraging people to not pester the bod for now.

I am aware of several replies to several people that went out individually. I would say the hard press isnt needed so we can let them just get on with it.

But not everyone will see that the same way so even a very vague RNS/communication could put a lot of email traffic to bed.

Just a bit more with sentiment, I believe some "problems" may have been leaving us/BOU recently with looking at the sells.

My view and perhaps my message here would be that not all posters are of the same trading group making a cup of freshly squeezed. There are those of us in a group holding and genuinely supporting a positive outcome.

There are some discussions on going (which I do think as accumulation has stopped), I think it'd be a nice sentiment from the new guy (Syms) to consider putting out an RNS that would reverse the bad sentiment from the one in April. Just thinking if there is to be a true fresh start here that some kind of news would be well received and aid market sentiment to the view that shareholders will be kept "linked in" with the chain of events. Sentiment is crucial in AIM as it has such a short memory. It's worth noting and reminding that the timing of the latest holdings RNS' at the end of the markets were done well too in order to prevent panic.

Current SP puts mcap at roughly 3.5m if thats what you are asking...?

Despite the sells and the lowering of the price, people have struggled to buy in volume. When you have a rough idea of holdings of people on here and elsewhere it also tells me that there must be some big holders just sub 3 percent that havent revealed their hands either.

Onco - the spread on nex is wildly disproportionate. It looks as though nex gets used when theres issues with liquidity. We know that there is as everyone is holding tight.

The sellers couldnt wait for news then? MM's seem to want to drop this off nothing as well I've noticed. Takes a lot to tick up but then one sell puts it down. They'll keep playing such games until news finally lands.

Strong buy if you can buy it lol...

One mm on L2 removed the price completely as well towards the end... Unless it was a fault with the system it all adds to the oddness of it all.

Did the price go up like it did to tempt sells as some know whats coming?

Tomorrow morning rns would be a treat, never mind afternoon and have the firms price open at valuation (assuming its a positive one).

Been busy taking them off people for the last few weeks too...

Cant get a quote in either direction.

Quite a few, disguised as sells too...

So remember, there was no TR-1 following the big buys a few weeks back. That MUST mean Antos cannot buy/sell at present and work is well underway behind the scenes here. A lot of paperwork will be moving about for review and given how complex it will be it'll be taking time to ensure that it is all in order. Keep holding, accumulate if you can.
