Keeptofacts shall be known as "the last disciple" if he keeps on saying what he does. Oh yes: I had forgotten about that comment from BM and that the deal would definitely have been done by October 31st. Here we are into November and still no answers. Why? Certain people want to get the NUOG / C4 thingamajig sorted out first before gently letting us down. Yawn. How dumb are we? At the very best we'll get a RNS stating that they need more time and low and behold with that will come more salary. Very convenient, wouldn't you say? More spin. More silence and the feeling of never really getting anywhere until we run out of cash to cover operational costs, which will probably mean yet another raise of equity and with it more shares dumped onto the market.

I have nothing personal against Crude. It's just that his comments were a little naïve given that he had just come away from a meeting with Parsons. I bet JP is really thanking him for saying what he did on this bb. It demonstrates a lack of respect for JP and I dare say he will be invited back for any more one-to-one meetings in a rush. Or maybe he just wants in at a much lower price so he can get his top-up away. Don't do it at the expense of Parsons et al though. Not when he had literally just shared his last tea bag and biscuit with you. I just hope the biscuit wasn't a soggy one, but then again I wouldn't be surprised if it actually was. Nothing surprises me about this circus show at the moment. Time to open up a bottle of Liebfraumilch, I think, to accompany my not so soggy spam fritter.

Crude's comments in the context of just having had a face-to-face meeting with the CEO (lawyer present) are worrying. God knows what was or wasn't said during that meeting, but Crude clearly came away from it thinking that the share price could drop-off some more, coupled with there being some sort of delay, with the "nadir" of the share price being some time next month and possibly into January.

Even more disparity between the 'Bid' and the 'Ask' now. MM's are having a giraffe.

It's like we're having a single digit number of trades per day. Shouldn't that be telling enough for the MM's to do something to create a market here again? It's like Groundhog Day at the moment. Yawn.

Not sure what games the MM's are playing here at the moment. The spread is too much and doesn't seem to be attracting many bids. The same was true last week. It's almost if they are trying to hold the fort and wait for the next load of news to drop.

Fair comment, Z-Cars. Here's hoping that Parsons delivers us all a Christmas present that will be worth the wait.

Despite "Crude-bashing" being the national sport of the SOU bb at present, I don't think it will last beyond this weekend as I'm hoping we receive some news next week. Parsons will want to feather his new nest at NUOG / C4E first before throwing us a few scraps and leftovers to debate. They have their EGM tomorrow and if Parsons and C4 get their way, then his next venture will be sorted. Let's just hope this coincides with wrapping things up here at SOU.

No soggy biscuit games for you or Crude, GekkoJr. I was going to ask you if you wanted to hold the biscuit, but you've wasted that opportunity now based on your below comment.

I'm not sure what Crude was hoping to garner from his recent trip to 'Stalkers Central' but I am still mulling over his recent comments and am still surprised and indeed shocked by some of them. None more so than his constant request to be released from the Board of Chuckle Energy plc. Well Kirk, you may get your wish after all should you continue spinning negativity. I will remind you that I hired you so that you could wag that tail of yours and inject some positivity. Telling us all that you believe the share price will drop-off some more and that now is not the time to top-up and to leave that until next month / January, is not very endearing. I thought you were better than that, but in all honesty, I don't think you've made any more friends on here during the past few days. I dare say Testpack will be sharing a glass of mulled wine with you at the fabled LE Party.

I just hope that we don't see another delay here at SOU with regards to the marketing process and ultimately the FID. Deadlines are deadlines at the end of the day and timescales ought to be adhered to and especially after what has been coming towards 6 months of radio silence albeit with a smidgeon of static attack. Unless there is a compelling reason why we all should have to endure this circus show for any longer than we need to then I am not going to be too pleased if we receive a RNS stating that things are going to take longer and we're now looking at a decision to be made some time during Q1 of 2020. Let's get this nightmare episode wrapped-up before Christmas (excuse the pun!) and let's get the party started.

We'll see what next week brings. Everyone stop bickering with each other now. Let's chill out and enjoy the weekend. I've spent long enough on these blessed boards today.

" ample opportunity for the sp to drop to a more accommodating price...say nearer to 7p or below. I will probably wait until December or even January as that could be the nadir of the share price prior to FID".

Don't you put this back on me. This is not about me, Crude. People can make up their own minds about your comments today. Nothing personal intended. You typed those thoughts and people are now questioning them. Your resignation has not been accepted by Chuckle Energy. Your role is a forced appointment, remember? You should be honoured to be one of our BOD.

Crude,
I am surprised by some of your comments today. That's all. I don't care too much for coffee anyway. I'm more of a tea drinker and I don't partake in drugs either. I'm not that weak.
It just worries me that you think 7.22p doesn't present good value and that you think the price could go lower so you can get your top-up done. You have to appreciate that we are all aware you sat with JP a couple of days ago and yet it comes across as though you have doubts regarding the share price and timelines being met.
I never thought I'd see the day when Crude became a deramper! Crudetrader.

Just checking in to see what EUA ended up on at the close of this week. Glad I sold earlier this week. However, looking at the trades, which are in some cases HUGE, it could be that stock has entered into stickier hands. Namely II's given the sort of purchases that I am sifting through on-screen now.

I think it may have been a mistake Crude and Parsons agreeing to meet. The comments that have been bandied around this bb today are testament to that. Parsons should have kept schtum until the news is released. Instead, he thought it wise to sit down with a PI with a lawyer present. Not very good use of time IMO. No offence, Kirk.

Of course, Kirk could be calling our bluff and may want to see some of us squirm if/when the good news is released. I am not blinkered to that being the case. However, I genuinely believe that doesn't apply in this case. I do however believe Crude is telling the truth when he referred to topping-up at a lower price and maybe some time in December through to January. It sounds as though he will trade the share when the fateful RNS stating that we haven't been able to secure a credible offer for our eastern assets and that we are "going long." Get in at the bottom and then trade the bounce. Hmm maybe this is something many will do given the very low trading volumes at present. Maybe this is something I may consider doing to, but I may just be too busy washing my hair if/when it happens. All three of them.

Crude - then why state timelines in your reply to me? I'll jog on now into the weekend and see what next week holds. Good luck with your sub 7p top-up in January I guess.

StMary - just make sure you walk the dog before you head off to the boozer. Have fun in the sun.

The only good thing that has come from it is that egg goes quite well with spam.
Nuff said. And besides, the entertainment that I have provided you with on here since my departure on Fb has been worthwhile.

And besides, my statement came to bite me on the butt anyway because of where the share price resides today. I thought I was getting a bargain at 34p when I made the statement that I did. We all know what happened in the weeks and months to follow. It's not as if I profited from it in any way whatsoever, so those that still hold a grudge need not to. Egg is on my face already.

Let's not go there about Facebook. We have talked about it many times over already. I was banned for a tongue in cheek statement to another investor, which was a far cry from some of the language and abuse that is bandied around this bb on a daily basis. I think Naresh should reinstate me. My brother hasn't been banned so get your facts straight.
