I am sure the Directors are fully aware that the share holders are expecting something more than the previous lack lustre announcements which had virtually nothing on new strategies or expansion plans. This is their last hope for remaining on the Board. I am really not concerned about Michael's pride and if he fails this time, he has to go either gracefully or disgracefully, the choice is his. I rather his see his ego and pride battered than shareholders investment dwindle.
As for Adrian, where is the person who a year and half ago was full of vigour and ideas on where he was taking AHF to? He has has had enough time to find himself and put his and our money where mouth is. If he is throwing in the towel, his creditability will be gone and and it would be very difficult to rebuild it.
Hence the two gentlemen have a point to prove and lets see what your next announcement is like.
