What a joke.

Just received an email from them regarding Andy Carroll leaving and how NUFC fans demand to know what is happening at our club, and what to have some input.

That's great, now why do they only pop up after something happens? You hear nothing from their impossible bid until something happens.

Obviously they think they may get more people to invest when things like this happen, but their daft idea of how to do it isn't going to attract enough people needed to buy the club.

Unless they link up with a millionaire, billionaire preferably, their campaign isn't going to move further than internet emails and the odd appearance on Look North.
 
Yeah.

I got it as well.

Our survey says.... exactly what we all knew it would say!

For Christs sake. It's not as if we need to have a barometer shoved up our arse to tell how we feel.

What a waste of bloody money this lot are!

Only if you paid and didn't realise back then what a waste of time it was going to be...

I suppose this is a step in the right direction

Along with other Trusts around the country, NUST were recently asked to put forward a submission to the Government with regard to the ‘Parliamentary Enquiry Into Football Governance’. The mood has definitely changed amongst supporters all over England and the Government has being forced to confront the problems that face every club, from the smallest right up to the powerhouses of the Premier League.

Within the extensive and detailed submission, NUST has called on the Government to make it a requirement for a financial stake in football clubs be given to a properly constituted Trust, or at very least there to be a requirement that supporters are allowed to buy a stake through their Trust.

To help supporters collectively raise significant sums to collectively own a significant stake, NUST are also calling for a raise in the current limit of £20,000 Equity investment per person through a Co-operative and that tax incentives similar to the Enterprise Investment Scheme are available to supporters wishing to invest.

The Trust is also asked the Enquiry to look into creating a new legal requirement for Supporters to have a voice/place on the Board of Clubs, as well as recognising the role that fans play in maintaining their clubs in the face of Financial and Corporate mismanagement throughout the Football Leagues.

The need for a review of the current fit and proper person test for board directors and owners is also highlighted, alongside the desperate necessity to establish a new Licensing System to ensure clubs are financially viable and self-sustaining on an annual basis.

So. The outright owners of the football clubs are then forced by the government to hand over a percentage of the club to Supporters Trusts?

Well, democracy and capitalism are terrible things...
 
I signed up with them at the first meeting at the Tyneside Irish club when it was NUFC Supporters club before they got a speaker to come to a meeting and advise on becoming a trust to eventually get enough cash together to buy the club.

Changed my email address since then ( so no contact ) and haven't heard much about them but my own impression is that it's a total waste of space.

Still not heard of where the cash has gone. Expenses for the executives? Not that I know who the executives are or how long they stay in office. Is it a case of 'job for the boys'?

I'm sure it would mean that all clubs would essentially be forced to remain a PLC. Not sure how they'd implement such a measure though.
