Greg in particular was key in trying to get the development behind the Gallowgate stopped via the NUST. Linda was good at getting the club to engage and acknowledge the female squad by updating the details on .co.uk, sharing their tweets etc. It even resulted in them promoting International woman’s day which gave the female side their biggest ever gate just before lockdowns. They so a lot of stuff behind the scenes that people don’t know about, but basically has their hands tied by Charnley and Ashley. It’s easy to get lost in the thought of them not being a protest group etc. They get a lot of stick for stuff that they did do as well. 3 years wasted planning the pledge for example.

Probably sums the Trust up nicely, to be fair. Off doing their own thing and couldn’t give two hoots about their members and their opinions. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Optimistic Nut Posted November 15, 2021 Share Posted November 15, 2021 Haven’t seen any update on the Pledge? Is it stopping and the money going to charity? Is it still being pursued to buy 1% ownership? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sima Posted November 15, 2021 Share Posted November 15, 2021 Canny radge how they are continuing to pull money from peoples bank accounts (remember, no refunds!) without any communication as to whether they are still pursuing what they campaigned for to get the fund moving.

wormy Posted November 15, 2021 Share Posted November 15, 2021 Am I misremembering or did they not say a few times at the start that the ultimate aim of the Pledge wouldn't change if/when the club got taken over? If so I imagine that'll be their argument; that nothing has really changed in regards to the aim of the pledge. Not saying that's right or wrong either way, especially as I'm no longer even a member of NUST to know when the last actual update on the Pledge was.

Rich Posted November 15, 2021 Share Posted November 15, 2021 I know I've been a bit negative in here lately, but it's raised an absolutely pathetic amount for how long it's been going. I say that as a former contributor, as well. There's no point in continuing with it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

They said shortly after the takeover they were going to meet with the Guardians to discuss disbanding it, which would then be sent to a vote to members. Nothing has been said since. I assume it’s too far down the list of priorities. A bit like Greg still to answer questions posed to him about Alex’s re-inauguration. Probably too busy with their media interviews and masturbating one another to care too much about taking people’s money. 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.

I also searched the forum after I posted and found comments from Greg that it could be wound up after a takeover so I got it completely wrong!

Joey Linton Posted November 15, 2021 Share Posted November 15, 2021 (edited) As i said a while back, I still don't understand why it's necessarily being wound up just because Ashley is gone? Was the plan only that the money would go to buy shares from him specifically? With the press attention the takeover has generated about the conduct of Saudi Arabia and MBS surely it's no less important to the Trust that the fans have a say on what's happening and how that conduct reflects on the club and the fanbase? Unless of course this is just the relatively easy route out, rather than acknowledge that it was a pie in the sky, terrible project from the start on which way too much resource has been wasted already. That and the fact that the change in ownership has potentially brought a far easier route for some of those involved to get their feet under the table / seat in a box by just being on the Trust Board. Obviously I'm just thinking out loud here, asking rhetorical questions. I get that none of this will get answered because that's simply not what they do.
