Cheshire, I know what you mean. I also want to OO to go boom, but CF has created a bid of a rod for his own back with his optimistic timelines. I think a lot of posters will remember his “promises” or projections for last Christmas some of which aren’t going to materialise this Christmas.
Elric, I respect your posts and knowledge of OO, but CW has only voiced what a lot of posters have expressed here. It doesn’t make me a deramper or one of the “ladies who like to supplant words”.

Thanks OBW that was very helpful.

Thanks Soup, do you think an interview would have helped ease concerns?

I have bought back in today after sitting on the sidelines. I sold at a big loss after AB handed in her notice. I haven’t invested much this time. I rather got my fingers burned by initially investing the day before DT “resigned” and the SP unfortunately has tanked ever since. But I am intrigued to see how this plays out and have followed this board daily. I don’t like posting on a share I’m not invested in but for better or worse I am in now.

Great news!

I agree Si, that was a good interview from a well researched interviewer who managed to ask searching questions in a pleasant manner. Not easy to do.

If you weren’t able to watch the POLB webinar this evening, Wally has posted his notes on the POLB LSE chat board. As usual a great summary. Cheers Wally.

Wally, thank you, that is a great summary.

I watched the webinar, and Sarah was excellent. I thought Jeremy’s answer to investing in POLB was weak and rather dodged.

Personally I have placed a lot of trust in CF so hope for some meaningful ORPH & POLB news soon.

Yes it is a “bizarre excuse”. Sort of on par with the dog ate my homework

Perhaps, Rusky, the Directors are unable to buy because it would be deemed insider information if there are deals in the pipeline?

Bought yesterday, unfortunately, HallsWorthy. I am sitting on my hands this time round

Cheers Matt, that is a constructive response and I have always liked CF’s willingness to engage with his shareholders. On the one occasion I contacted Investor Relations I got a prompt and helpful reply, which is more than you can say for some companies. (Barwickman I’m thinking especially of NFX who never responded to any emails).

JB, ref Oasis, I’m not sure I see the point in dredging up old posts especially with the benefit of hindsight. People’s circumstances change and people react to situations as they arise and re-valuate accordingly.
Perhaps I have made a mistake topping up today, time will tell.

Good luck Oasis, I can understand your reasons. I have actually gone the other direction, and despite saying I wouldn’t buy more, I’ve made a speculative small top up to try and bring my average down.
Really hope we get good news soon and I haven’t made a bad mistake. GLA

POLB down over 12% this afternoon. Definitely want to hear what CF has to say when Poolbeg presents on the Proactive webinar on the 9th December.

I believe it’s standard market practice Bobtastic. Looking back at previous RNS’s POLX issue them on a relatively regular basis.

Unfortunately Mozi I agree with you. You can feel the disillusionment with CF just by reading some of the posts on here. It’s a shame because CF has many good points but his credibility has been hit by massively missed deadlines and the blarney.
Leo Toole’s recent interview was more reassuring and measured. I will hold for the time being but December is a going to be a very important month.

Thanks Bazzaman and also Gidget for providing a link to the article. Good to see Poolbeg featured in one of the main investor publications.

Yes, here’s hoping Jim that is the case. I have signed up for the Proactive webinar on the 9th December and will be interested to hear what JS/CF have to say.

Yes, that’s my thoughts too Moniman. I understand why there is a lock-in period as you don’t want to see the stock dumped in the first few weeks of trading before the company is established. However, if there is no tangible progress, it’s just deferring the problem and I think there could well be a stampede to the exit once the lock-in expires.

My thanks too Bazzaman for the link. I agree with Greend100 that it’s worth listening to. It was an interesting and measured podcast from Leo Toole.
