We recently wrote to you regarding the NUST annual election process that invited members to express interest in standing for one of four (4) available positions on the board of NUST for a period of three years.
We would like to take this opportunity to thank NUST members who expressed an interest in applying for a position on the Board.
Following the first stage in the election process (Registrations of Interest: 25th Nov – 2nd Dec) we can now confirm that there were three (3) candidates, and as a result we do not need to proceed to next stages as outlined in our election process.
Therefore, we can confirm that the following Members have applied for, and have been successful in securing a place on the Board of NUST:
Michael Martin
Alex Hurst
Paul Karter
The nomination statements submitted by Michael, Alex and Paul can be found HERE.
The Board wish to thank outgoing board members Marc Corby, Michael Mannion and Peter Maughan for their contributions to the Board and wish them all the best for the future.
The appointment of new Board members will be confirmed at the NUST Annual AGM on 12th January 2023, and the newly constituted Board will meet shortly afterwards.
We will be writing out to members with further details of the AGM in the near future and hope members are available to attend and chat to our Board about our plans for the future.
The club is in a transitional period following a change of ownership, and we are looking forward to a brighter future both on and off the field, and what is clear is that supporters (via fan engagement) should play a central role in shaping the future of Newcastle United.
The Board is happy to confirm that early engagement with recently appointed club officials suggest that NUST will have an important contribution to make.
Please join us in welcoming Michael, Alex and Paul to the Board.
