As will I, and I agree a positive announcement is the key, irrespective of the timing...
It does raise the issue of PR though. Boardroom Radio has been used very successfully and it has been a great boost to investors confidence to listen in to the regular updates. Against that, statements such as the one on Nov 15th "As far as Angola is concerned, we're all set for the issue of the permits in the Kwanza Basin next month, which should be a nice Christmas present for all Cityview shareholders" somehow seem all the more definitive in clear audio, so the failure to deliver on such statements will inevitably impact negatively on both the SP and shareholder confidence.
I'm convinced MS is aware of this, which is why I remain confident he'll deliver as promised.
