You had me doubting my own post. I said "I'm looking forward to Friday such drama" Some how you added an apostrophe and an s to make me look more illiterate than I already is

I wonder if PH reads the forums . I looking forward to Friday such drama

I just reread your post RB and was shocked when you said the AGM was tomorrow, no its Friday . If I can pluck up the courage I will ask some of those questions

I was only joking RB.

"I have heard Peter is attending and bringing his abacus."

Yes you can count on my Uncle Peter

Just wondered how the vote is tallied up , is it an outside regulated body that undertakes the process

"I will be voting with a cold unemotive logical and rational mindset, and that's to vote for what is best for POG, it's future and for returns of shareholder value"

In your opinion. Time will tell but the if the last year was anything to go by then I'm with resolutions 13-23

Where did it say Gothic decided to 'cut & run'. In Maggie's article from the FT which she posted this morning.

"Mr Koomen said it was no secret that the fund, which owns its stake in Petropavlovsk was being wound down but he would like to see the company finish a new processing plant that will allow it produce more gold.

Gertjan Koomen is , managing partner at Sothic Capital.

So you have to ask : if Gothic are pulling out why the heck do they want to see the completion of the POX Hub, I mean what the hell will it have to do with them, why should they care if they are pulling out?

Sorry RB to be pedantic about the Atlantic and specific about the pacific but here you are
London to amur petropavlovsk
Miles: 4765.35 miles.
Los Angeles to Amur petropavlovsk
Miles: 5367.97 miles.
London to Los Angeles
Miles: 5440.22 miles.

Not much in it bar the fact that if Mr Ashby wants to travel to London as well ... double the distance

Good thoughtful measured past as usual RB. It did occur to me that yes another 'sock puppet' group may have made an unsolicited offer for the POX HUB but the present board have gone to great lengths to see who are behind cabs/slevin so I thought they would have at least said who made the offer and checked them out. And yes maybe my heart/instincts come into this . I would have made a lousy football manager that's for sure

Another example of faith in POG and putting your money where your mouth is . Akin to the present board owning no shares -well they might do at the moment

A serious ' in depth' article I think. So Gothic were winding down their stake anyway and Ashby lives on the west coast of America although POG is based in Russia and London . Okay not crimes in themselves but doesn't sound to dedicated , does it. I also found what Ashby said about the company having a bad five years and languishing . Well one of those five years have been under Ashby when the SP although Gold is higher is lower than it was when he took the reins, I accept Hambro totally over stretched based on the phenomenally rise gold price at that time, if the price had crashed say two years later surely the company would have fared infinitely better. At least Hambro should vision and courage this present lot are inert and Ashby moans about "languishing" Well Mr Ashby its languished under your watch for almost a year

" “My message any change would just create further instability in a company that hasn’t had such a good history over the past five years,” he said. Shares in Petropavlovsk have dropped almost 80 per cent over that period and are currently languishing at around 8p."

Thanks Maggie, sorry if it sounded like I was moaning, I was ;-)

In that firs link it says at the end

"Ashby said: “The company has received an unsolicited, indicative and non-binding proposal from a third party for the acquisition of the POX facility, which we do not intend to sell. As a board we remain committed to maximising value for all shareholders, and POX lies at the heart of that strategy.”

So no smoke without fire , the POX hub sale rumours had substance

Arggggggghhh.....pay wall Maggie, pay wall.

I think you'll find RB that the phrase "another week down the pan" was coined by istabraq; but I get your point

".....roll on Friday so we can finally rid POG of the Hambro Maslovsky quasi-dynastic curse!"

Is that a prediction ?

Wind up ;-)
