Back in September 2015, after the stock fell from it’s high of $12 to approx $7, Woodford met with NWBO management and found “nothing untoward” regarding the screening hold.
it seem like more that a discussion with Les where all he said is don't worry be happy. I know Linda said something to the effective of asking why does everyone feel the hold is due to something bad. If Woodford met with NWBO management as this claims he did I suspect he was looking for more than simple reassurances without any supporting data - IMHO. I believe at the time it was believed the hold would be short lived so perhaps Woodford didn't feel this would hamstring him for long which ended up not being the case as we know.
