The boy Moore is actually on holiday while I am at my keyboard so I shall do the crowing for him as his words of warning on uber-dog Starcom (STAR) came good with a keep the lights on placing at no-one is watching O'Clock (3.54 PM) the day before the Easter break.

Morons you are, clearly not in lengthy comms with the Board or indeed rocked up at the Roadshow, instead you cast stones from the outside.
Totally missed the point and have omitted the positives – jokers:
Options SCRAPPED for new ones at a much higher price, 5p ffs
Directors cut their remuneration unlike other AIM stocks
2 Facts were beyond their control – do your research ffs
Placing was at no discount to market price
Institutional Investor loaded up many more millions okay, average down if you are so bearish
Finally Directors put their hands in the pockets too
JOKERS you are – morons pretty much too

This would be the board that predicted profits in 2015 only to see losses. Why should we believe a word they say?
Directors bought a few shares and will get money back from repayments of loans etc. Not exactly a massive vote of confidence.
10% pay cut? So what.
Steve has called this brilliantly to date. You I suspect have done less well. Good luck to you going forward esp with this spread.

Why believe…never back track on an investmrnt punt on Aim
Stick to a position not cry like a baby when the company fails on your research
You boyz have just done that giving yourselves zero cred on Starcom from a bullish article on one RNS to a flurry of sulky articles based on childish reviews of their performance.
Its a growth story like you boyz said and they shall go forward or get broke.
Milton are in and I don’t see that as a bad thing.
Im not fussed just dont need your constant bearishness as I think your change of mind shows your brilliant ignorance and school boy characters

On this website writers write what they want and dont always agree. Robert Tyerman tipped this stock – like you he got it wrong.
We do explain this regularly but clearly you have not grasped that Rob T is not Steve Moore as you are just too thick to read properly.
Steve has been a bear all along and has called it superbly. I side with Steve
You are a retard and your absence will not cause any tears

You are the retard who has a childish approach to stocks, like most financial journalists you loiter and hover around people like flies to poo.
Wrong CALL all of you STARCOM is now 3p!

The company is worthless crap. It is the poo. The shares have had a brief ramp up. The long term trajectory is all the other way. Enjoy this brief respite. You are not seriously arguing that this is a good company are you?

You have Milton an Institutional Investor – Surely with support like that it is unfortunate to call it a crap company?
