Consortium of one Posted November 15, 2021 Share Posted November 15, 2021 Let's think about this: the club recently put 38M into the club for expenses. PCP put in (10%) 3.8M, the Reuben's put in 3.8M and PIF put in (80%) 30.4M. That would mean if NUST could in fact buy 1% of the club, in order to keep the books properly, they would have to stump 1% of any money invested in the club. So they would be expected to raise cash ASAP in order to do so. That would mean the NUST would be liable to raise 380K to match the other's percentage recently. Yeah, right.

xLiaaamx Posted November 15, 2021 Share Posted November 15, 2021 It's just for PR really though. 1% would be like PIF's involvement in Disney etc. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fantail Breeze Posted November 15, 2021 Share Posted November 15, 2021 Would’ve been a much better idea to campaign for the Trust to receive a NED role on the Board. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Optimistic Nut Posted November 15, 2021 Share Posted November 15, 2021 As long as there’s dialogue between the board and NUST, which I’m sure there will be now, I don’t see the need for a place on it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Such as yourself, calling Wraith “mentally unwell”, only this morning. Mature and valid criticism has been ignored by NUST every time it’s offered. I’ve tried to engage with them as a member and also just as a critical friend, it’s always been repeatedly ignored and ultimately people will get sick of that. He is mentally ill, though. That's the most polite way I could put it. I'm not sure it's on the same level as "masturbating each other". I do also think he's a bald Tory nonce with major Daddy issues, though, so maybe I am a hypocrite. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It evidences transparency, I suppose. The fans also get a voice directly to those in charge, rather than email exchanges with some fans liaison officer. I agree with you though, it’s not necessary. But if they were intent on forcing Alex’s dream on people, that would’ve been a much more realistic prospect. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Think I’d rather wank someone off than suffer from mental ill health. Although that’s probably a separate conversation. We’re all hypocrites in some shape or form.

Sima Posted November 22, 2021 Share Posted November 22, 2021 Presuming that has been paid from the trust account, shouldn’t there be more than 5 figures in the account? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wilson Posted November 22, 2021 Share Posted November 22, 2021 'I made the payment....' Surely 'we donated' or something along those lines. Not sure why everything he says pisses me off. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Optimistic Nut Posted November 22, 2021 Share Posted November 22, 2021 If the £180k raised by NUST went to the Foodbank, does that mean Reuben would match it? If so, absolute no brainier imo. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ashley wasn't smart enough to realise that chucking a few grand at a charity would get NUFC social media singing his praises. Well, more likely didn't give a shite. Staveley seems worrying comfortable in the company of some truly evil people; people far worse than Dickensian shithouse Ashley. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
