Kid Icarus Posted April 17, 2023 Share Posted April 17, 2023 (edited) Yeah when I read that I couldn't believe it. It's so stupid, embarrassing, and naive at such a basic level that I actually feel a bit sorry for the daft shite.

Chicken Dancer Posted April 17, 2023 Share Posted April 17, 2023 Anyone handing money over to them lot man I've no time for the Trust either btw, but this is a mess. It seems that one of the founding members of NUSC is behind a Twitter account @unmaskingtrolls - seems to be taking pleasure in posting photos of people's family and their employer etc. Many believe it to be that Ian mentioned in a previous post on this thread. FWIW that 'Daz Curry' who is the brains behind the operation seems to be a bit of a helmet on Twitter, a self-proclaimed 'soopafan'. Always calling people out for not seeing them at away days amongst 3000 others. Fair play to him as he travels far and wide and obviously cares a hell of a lot, but doesn't come across well at all. It's glorious reading mind, has to be said. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

NE27 Posted April 17, 2023 Share Posted April 17, 2023 Sorry like but that nusc will be a fucking abomination if it's trying to dress itself up as a 'trust'. Not a fan of that Darren curry, but he does what he does well so why not make a group dedicated to away days and home displays/atmospheres? He has the ear of the young radge element so use that to effect for me. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

jack j Posted April 17, 2023 Share Posted April 17, 2023 Media team ffs Everything I've ever heard that Darren be against they're doing Why didn't he just say he's gonna put on a few buses to aways and carry on with boats and renting the odd pub out and am sure more would have been happy to go along with it Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

KetsbaiaIsBald Posted April 17, 2023 Share Posted April 17, 2023 I have no time for any of the clubs/trusts what ever they want to call themselves. At the end of the day they seem to end up the same way. People just trying to make money off the fans or freebies from the club. I’d like the club to continue to reach out to season ticket holder and members and just to polls when they need input. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jack27 Posted April 17, 2023 Share Posted April 17, 2023 Supporters clubs are important but the club has work to do to verify them. There should be a directory on the website or some shit. Having access to worldwide supporters clubs and contact info for if you’re travelling should be available Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wor flags organising support great. If they’re an “elected” voice to sit between the fans and the club on getting opinions and choices on anything then no. I also don’t buy into them needing to exist to raise issues with the club. Allow direct contact. Get the club to poll on the things that matter to most people. Edit - I like the governments get a certain amount of votes and something will be discussed. Open a portal like this where anyone can raise an issue/ question. If it gets backing they chat.

HaydnNUFC Posted April 18, 2023 Share Posted April 18, 2023 The lot associated with that NUSC seem like a geet bunch of wrong'uns, like. They've already got form for stalking people's Facebook profiles, asking what they do for a living and all that kind of really fucking strange shite. Grown men ffs. Despise our fans on Twitter for the most part, so many different cliques and cults going on it's mad. Part of the reason why meaningful protest against Ashley could never be brought together. Absolutely bizarre. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stifler Posted April 18, 2023 Share Posted April 18, 2023 (edited) Some guy the other day was asking who Daz Curry was because Daz was saying he was a glory hunter jumping in our bandwagon because he’s not from the area. The guy defended himself by saying he was born and raised in North Shields, then moved to Whitley Bay, before moving to York a few years ago for work. This is what I was saying earlier on this thread, you can’t create a supporters group if you are going to gatekeep it so only people you personally know are allowed to join.

Kid Icarus Posted April 18, 2023 Share Posted April 18, 2023 (edited) We know from SackPardew and AshleyOut that people will mock you, be cynical about what you're doing, and rightly want to know the far end of a fart. You need to be pretty thick-skinned, transparent, democratic, and professional. You're representing the fanbase, even those who disagree with everything you're doing. I can't think of anyone less suitable for this sort of thing than this bloke like. Just thinking back to the way he went on about the plane banner, he had 9 out of 10 people pleading with him not to do it but did it anyway, and now under barely any scrutiny he's implying or outright saying people aren't real fans and has seemingly just copied the Trust's terms. How can you put your trust in someone who won't listen to a majority, makes judgement on who real fans are, and copy and pastes from another Trust's website? Surely this is just a '70s style aggro boys club made up of the people he deems worthy of membership? Edited April 18, 2023 by Kid Icarus Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
