Title: Tuesdays Meeting Post by: townfanupnorth on Thursday, February 1, 2007, 13:15:40 It is well known that Starnes said on the radio on Saturday that the meeting was nothing to do with the consortium and that it was only regarding whether Powers money was a loan or whether it was for shares.
So i dont really call that progress regarding the consortium. Title: Tuesdays Meeting Post by: Iffy's Onion Bhaji on Thursday, February 1, 2007, 13:17:42 yes but we dont know what was said at the meeting do we? so until then i assume the fact the two parties are still on talking terms with a meeting next week is a good thing

Title: Tuesdays Meeting Post by: Fred Elliot on Thursday, February 1, 2007, 13:28:10 It take it as a very positive step forward and I await some sort of media clarification.
Don't you think that even agreeing to meet again is a major step forward ? Title: Tuesdays Meeting Post by: townfanupnorth on Thursday, February 1, 2007, 13:31:38 Yes i agree that meeting again is a step forward but yet again if it's only regarding powers investment in the summer then we have nothing to get excited about as people could be getting their hopes up for no reason.
We just all know that the board are not interested in walking away so i'm not optimistic. Title: Tuesdays Meeting Post by: Sippo on Thursday, February 1, 2007, 13:34:34 Hopefully Bill will ask for his million back, the board won't be able to afford that paving the way for the consortium to take over. Or perhaps they're finding how many share BP has in the club.
No-one knows except the people there. Thats just leave it at that and let the relative parties get on with it. Lets not speculate because anything could happen yet. Title: Tuesdays Meeting Post by: red macca on Thursday, February 1, 2007, 13:34:57 I dont know

Title: Tuesdays Meeting Post by: Fred Elliot on Thursday, February 1, 2007, 13:52:10 now that is undisputed
Title: Tuesdays Meeting Post by: red macca on Thursday, February 1, 2007, 13:53:52 Stop humouring me
Title: Tuesdays Meeting Post by: Power to people on Thursday, February 1, 2007, 14:13:37 Let's be fair it is a step in the right direction that they have organised another meeting for next week which must mean they have things to discuss.
Wilks & Power are not stupid men surely if they didn't think they was going to get anywhere then I'm sure they would tell us and not bother to meet. I think we have to be patient at the moment and take it as no news is good news though. Title: Tuesdays Meeting Post by: RobertT on Thursday, February 1, 2007, 15:45:05 if the legal outcome was a 33% holding in STFC, then the person responsible for most of the investment behind the Consortium would suddenly become a significant shareholder and hold sway in appointing the Boardroom. So even if this meeting only discussed that, the irony could be that they end up allowing 3/5 ths of the Consotrium's aims to become reality.
That or they have a £1m bill to pay.

Yes, but then Starnes also said on the radio not so very long ago that the consortium backer (singular) was definitely an American. I'd be careful which sources you treat as definitive in making judgements like that.

We just all know that the board are not interested in walking away so i'm not optimistic. It doesn't sound as if the only subject discussed was Power's share holding. I know it's "grim up narth" but lighten up a little. |
