I have now seen the paperwork that More Acquisitions (TMOR) received from the scouse share promoter Doc Holliday requesting a sack the board EGM. And it looks kosher to me yet the company’s response is baffling and shameful. Especially in light of clear allegations of market abuse.

Thanks to Winnileaks I now have in my possession a letter sent to the directors of Oxford Cannabinoid (OCTP) by holders of c8% of the equity demanding that an EGM be held to sack the entire board. Natch Oxford has yet to tell investors of this via an RNS so let me bring you the highlights.

The Sound Energy (SOU) shareholder action group now has more than 300 members and speaks for 9.5% of the, in my view, almost worthless, equity. At 10% it can call an EGM and seek to oust the board. And if you own any stock in the company I urge you to contact me at [email protected] NOW and here is why….

On January 10 2020 those mad enough to own shares in Plutus Powergen (PPG) have the chance at an EGM to vote to sack the board. The table below is damning and shows why the board must be sacked. Plutus should be for the many not the few. Right now it is not.

I start this podcast with a look at some of the shite press coverage of the Woodford scandal today, notably Patrick Hosking in The Times and the Daily Mail. Then it is onto what ios the end game for Neil personally: jail? insolvency of WIM? A lifetime ban from financial services? Another OBE and more tea with his pal David Cameron? Finally I look at Woodford Patient Capital Trust (WPCT) and reach out to fellow shareholders. I wish to call an EGM to sack the board and explain why. can you help me?

Let's be clear here. Widecells (WDC) was a client of Align Research run by Richard Jennings. That is to say it paid Align to publish research. It is thus all the more remarkable that Jennings is prepared to stock the knife in, attack recent actions by the company and is now buying shares in the market to call an EGM to fire the board. Get your beer and popcorn ready, for what it is worth I agree with Jennings on this matter and urge all shareholders to contact him to offer their support. He writes:

Nick Trew, the CEO of Pathfinder Minerals (PFP) is currently attempting to fight off an EGM request to oust him and Toff Tory MP Sir Henry Bellingham of 3DM infamy from the board. Their record of non delivery should be enough to see them sent packing but another allegation has now been made which - if proven - would make their dismissal a black and white issue. Nomad WH Ireland and AIM Regulation must investigate this at once.

Yesterday morning Crown Ocean launched its requisition for an EGM at Bowleven (BLVN). I explained why the coup is a “no-brainer” here. Bowleven’s management is surely toast. Having taken tens of millions in remuneration over the years, and spent hundreds of millions on failed projects, this company has been a classic value trap. But could that all be about to change?

Hedge fund Crown Ocean Capital P1 Ltd has called an EGM to oust six utterly useless and grossly overpaid board members (the dirty half dozen) at Bowleven (BLVN) and replace them with Christopher Ashworth and Eli Chahin. We can reveal that the coup is a nil brainer - management is toast. Here is why...

It seems like an eternity of lies ago but the EGM of AIM fraud Cloudtag (CTAG) was in fact just 11 days ago and at that meeting shareholders approved two motions relating to share issuance that allowed the L1 death spiral to go ahead. But they were lied to.

The board of Sefton (SER) was informed eight days ago that Flip Flop Ben Turney owned 13% of the issued share capital and was demanding an EGM to oust the current directors, ADVFN (AFN) bosses Clem Chambers and Mike Hodges with Ben taking control. The resolution arrived in the BVI yesterday by snail mail but after eight days Flip Flop has not had a response. But he seems to have growing support and there are other developments.

Well, well – another twist in the formerly AIM-listed Teathers (TEA) saga has emerged, as a wander through Companies House filings reveals that a certain Mr Jason Drummond quit as a director on 23 June 2016 (last Thursday), ahead of the forthcoming sack-the-board EGM on Tuesday. The question, of course, is why?

There are five directors at New World Oil & Gas (NEW), two new regime (Adam Reynolds and Nick Lee) and three of the utterly loathed and discredited old guard who spunked £33 million of other folks cash on deals that were either fraudulent (the fake Sheikh) or just crap. How Messrs Einchcomb, Polakoff and Sztyk have the brass neck to hang around like a lingering mega fart defies belief. But not for much longer.

The discredited board of Teathers Financial appears determined to make itself look as bad as possible in its ongoing battle with activist shareholders. Yesterday the company managed to publish the EGM circular on the company’s website, but “forgot” to include the proxy form shareholders need to appoint proxies. Fear not though, ShareProphets has a copy of the form here.

Over the weekend shareholders in Teathers Financial (TEA) started to receive circulars for the forthcoming EGM. Having tried and failed to bully its shareholders into calling off the EGM, Teathers’ board has adopted new tactics in the circular - lies and smears.

This Wednesday shareholders in Teathers Financial (TEA) plan to requisition an EGM to seek replacement of the board, we can reveal. With the company facing imminent delisting for failing to fulfil its investment policy, shareholders are left with two options. They can either back the old board to deliver its mystery £1million investment into the private company or they can back the action group to salvage what value it can from the wreckage of the PLC.

Finally Nyota Minerals (NYO) has agreed to an EGM to vote on bringing on new directors ( who are credible) and ousting the old board who have been grossly overpaid and have trashed this company. The old board has wriggled for two months in order to extract yet more in fees and will leave the bank account empty when voted out, as they surely will be. We already know that the owners of 40% plus of the equity want the greedy useless bastards out. But still the bastards wriggle.

Oh dear. Baby Bear called this one to 0p at Gold & Bears HERE since when shares in Fastjet (FJET) have soared but now the chickens are coming home to roost with Sir Stelios Haji-Ioannou warning that the company has misled investors and is facing a cash crunch.
Sir Stelios co-founded the aurline and with a 12.6% holding has called an EGM to oust CEO Ed Winter and his boardroom patsy, the airline's general counsel Krista Bates. Stelios says that the company has guided analysts to make forecasts about revenues and profits which are simple fantasies "a pipe-dream”.

Carry on up the Sefton Resources (SER) shareholders should be warned: trading in shares in your company will be halted sooner than you think and the company will almost certainly be kicked off the AIM Casino a month later, we have it from more than one source that Clem Chambers and those who called for an EGM are not backing down.

At No-one is watching O'clock ( 6.29 PM) the news finally came through. Congratulations to Ben "pitchfork" Turney - the EGM of AIM casino posterboy New World Oil & Gas (NEW) has not passed either proposal made by the board.
The two motions needed to get 66.67% of those voting to pass. On the placing the yes side managed to get to 50.7% on the handing out of warrants like confetti to adviser motion they got to just 31.94% - thus both motions fail.

Detail is slowly emerging from the farcical New World Oil & Gas (NEW) EGM in Jersey today. Criminal market abuser Chris Oil was not present - maybe his passport has already been confiscated. But Ben Turney was attending as were no less than four heavies from broker Cornhill Capital. The bottom line is, knowing that a show of hands would go against the company, it started the meeting by calling a poll - that is to say a vote of those actually casting votes on the two resolutions. However...

Oh dear. Those following flip flop pitchfork Ben Turney and the loons on the LSE asylum and filling their boots with New World at up to 0.85p ahead of “The biggest bear squeeze in history” have today done their conkers. The shares have crashed by more than 60% to just 0.16p bid thanks to two announcements. Ouch, how does it feel being skewered on your own pitchfork? Ask Ben.
First up came the news that New will go ahead with an open offer – for which shareholder permission is not needed – and which is fully underwritten by Cornhill Capital if the EGM votes

I stand by my thought on New World from yesterday's bearcast HERE. But having slept on the matter new issues arise. Could the turnout at the EGM exceed 100%? Yes. Should the shares be suspended? Who is Mrs Williams? Should trades be unwound? Arguably yes. Should Roland "fatty" Cornish lose his Nomad license? No question - yes.

ADVFN (AFN) has today stated that it has rejected a request from folks owning 25% of its shares for an EGM to change the entire board and it has accused those seeking an EGM of all sorts of naughty things. Words like “criminal” and “bullying” appear in the release. So what next?

I am delighted to see that 85% of shareholders in rangers FC (RFC) voted at the EGM to boot out the Ashley patsies and vote on the Dave King slate as directors. But there remain a series of questions about the club’s future on AIM and also about the behaviour of disgraced advisers WH Ireland and Newgate Communications.
King himself has not taken a seat on the board but instead Douglas Park has joined along with the other new boys Paul Murray and John Gilligan. The old board indicated that AIM might have issues with King given his colourful past and I guess he has side stepped that and so there is now np reason AIM can object to Rangers staying on the Casino.
All that it needs to do is to find a Nominated Advisor (Nomad) to replace WH Ireland – the employer of disgraced China fraud specialist Paul Shackleton – which quit two days before the EGM. That should not be an issue.
Most Nomads will represent anyone for a fee. After all Paul Shackleton was happy to represent Naibu (NBU) even though its CEO was languishing in gaol although he did not feel the need to inform investors. Shackleton was well aware that the Naibu CEO had a criminal record but again was happy to take Naibu’s money. Quite why Mr Shackleton regards Dave King as worse than Houyan Lin of Naibu escapes me but then perhaps the fact that Naibu had paid his employer £750,000 in two years swayed his opinion. But I guess Shackleton would not be of interest to Rangers.

Rangers (RFC) has announced plans to hold an EGM to vote on a wholesale change of board. The plans are a disgrace, for the EGM is to be held in London at a venue that can hold only 500. Most Rangers shareholders live in Glasgow. This appears a deliberate attempt by Rangers and its shamed financial adviser Mr Paul Shackleton of WH Ireland to disenfranchise fans.
At the last GM held in Glasgow 2000 attended. The intent n booking a London venue that can hold only 500 is clear. The gibbering fool Shackleton was recorded on the phone trying to explain this decision to a fan and came over as a totally clueless poltroon

Ahead of an EGM tomorrow to approve the dilution of existing shareholders to oblivion certain statements made by Beacon Hill Resources (BHR) require scrutiny. Even by the standards of the AIM Casino, Beacon Hill stinks and I explain why. I stand with existing shareholders who - if they have never attended an EGM ever before - head to tomorrow's event and vote against the board and - effectively - for administration. This whole matter stinks, stinks, stinks.

Next week AIM Cesspit posterboy Vialogy (VIY) will send its long suffering shareholders details of the exact motions for its EGM on 29th November. I spoke to the Vialogy shareholder action group, which speaks for 13.5% of the shares, yesterday and in light of that I have another message for the discredited liar Terry “Junk” Bond who is chairman of this enterprise.
Much of what I discussed with the shareholder action group must remain confidential at this stage. But I can put it on record that I regard them as good, decent folk who have put hard cash into Vialogy and simply want a return. I contrast that with the current board whose members have simply taken out cash and have screwed shareholders totally.

Another day and another missive is issued by the board of Hibu (HIBU) ahead of its EGM on 4th December. Rebel shareholders are trying to oust the overpaid and under-delivering board and oppose a restructuring which will see shareholders lose 100%. I have noted before how the actions of the board in employing uber-expensive bully boy lawyers to try to scare off the rebels are despicable.
In this latest missive the directors, who will nearly all keep their jobs under the proposed plan, say that if shareholders support their strategy then shareholders will lose 100%. But they claim that it is in the interests of all stakeholders to support their strategy so shareholders should back the board. That is patent bollocks.
I happen to agree with the board that Hibu shares are almost certainly worthless. But let’s examine the stakeholders in this case with some gameplay analysis.
