Your trying silly gotchas with semantics. But let's recap all the times Barry went on interviews and advised share holders how close things were.

1) restart study delay - "restart study is on track people working day and night should be ready in 2 weeks" - 2 weeks later, sorry guys restart study will be delayed 6 months.

2) Glencore - "should have financed wrapped up by July (a few weeks) - July passes / deal falls through.

3) The hard part of the debt is the prepayment once we get that the other debt should be relatively quick.

4) The actual interest in senior debt - every time he spoke about the data room and parties having access, I don't see many interested parties? If everyone was so eager why is cym being offered such bad deals?

5) Positive conversations with bond deals? How does it go from that to them offering a deal so bad that cym can't accept it, even if it now means the market thinks cym is on life support or could go bust.

You can try and play on words with silly gotchas like oh Barry didn't say exactly this or that or he countered it so he had out if things went pear shaped.

Tbh the track record is there cemented in time for anyone to go back and see. All the over confident claims which were made and how miserably they fell short.
