Eh? I asked the question, that's the point, in the hope of getting an answer to it. Assuming that means you've not really read what I've posted, who's being deliberately difficult and awkward now?

Do you know whether the prospective new owners have been made aware of the plans and reacted positively as has been reported by various outlets today, or not been contacted at all as Liam Kennedy suggests? There's a significant difference between those two scenarios.

Cheers. At risk of subjecting myself to a second forum pile on for asking a question..... If "The Trust" or whatever own say 1% what sway does that really give them in decision making when someone else in the boardroom owns say 90%+? Also if this 1% group has to refer it's vote on stuff to however many thousand members to decide what they think, how does that work? Not asking you specifically, more a general question?

That was part of the question really, if only members can have "a say" (or "a vote", which is what i've seen suggested today on social media), clearly there's something to have a say or a vote about, no? Wanting to understand what shouldn't be a problem.

I only asked a question ffs, which was is my understanding of the situation right, then I can make my own decision, as can everyone else. I didn't say they weren't being transparent, did I? Show me where I did if so. You were the one who turned it into what we're discussing now. Sounds like you're just defending them against stuff that no one has actually said here, like......

Because someone went off on a tangent when i asked a simple question rather than just confirm the answer to it........

That totally misrepresents the situation - I've no intention of pledging if i then have to be a Trust member to have a say about my pledge.

Its not about the cost at all, i don't think they represent either the fanbase in general (not that they claim to) or even their membership's own views. I've said all of this before though and don't intend to go over it again.

Ok.

I don't want to be a member of the Trust, simple as that.

Is that right, any fans can pledge money but unless you're a signed up member of the NUST you then get no say on what happens with it?

https://www.mirror.co.uk/sport/football/news/newcastle-fans-pledge-50million-buy-3366385 Raised £50m in pledges last time so this should be easy.

NUST launch "Yes We Can" campaign again. Is it ten years ago?

Not much hype you say? Seriously? Calling it the most ambitious fan led project in the history of the sport?

Ah, the classic "do your own research" line. Assume you couldn't come up with anything......

What work? for what benefit? of which fans? How have their apparent 15,000 members benefitted from what you think they've done?

Ten years in, what do you think they actually stand for?

Process was already underway by all accounts (so i'm told anyway).

Issue for me is when they repeatedly push the "get your voice heard, become a member" whenever the latest crisis appears, then do nowt. Got that audience with the premier league then backed off completely straight after. It was exactly the same when Rafa was leaving "join up get your voice heard" then did nowt. As has been said above, they get a far better "press" on here than with the general fan base simply because a few on here are mates. A read of the early pages of this thread shows the difference when that wasn't the case.

Nope.

Must be membership renewal time.

Nope

Steve who "doesn't do xG and all that nonsense" will be quoting the fuck out of that stat this next week. Guaranteed.

He's an upgrade on Krafth I suppose

Finish 17th and have this dinsosaur tell us its an achievement and hes proven people wrong, or get relegated?
