HaydnNUFC Posted March 12, 2023 Share Posted March 12, 2023 A real community for real men. Real men representing a real community. Proper English. Telling it how it is. Would rather the club fold than that gain traction. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Whitley mag Posted March 12, 2023 Share Posted March 12, 2023 Might be a good thing if it’s an old style supporters club like we had in the Haymarket years ago. If it’s arranging travel to away games, social events and trying to improve atmosphere id be all for it. NUST doesn’t appeal to me one bit in it’s current guise.

Chicken Dancer Posted March 12, 2023 Share Posted March 12, 2023 Curry is as much of a waste of time as the Trust, sadly. Self-appointed, arrogant wanker. Leader of the Twitter cunts that bloke. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not surprising comments considering he’s on with your mate Wraith. The guy is a weapon man. He’s pictured on TV all the time because between him and Keith the beef they are the ones taking their tops off in the freezing rain. He tries to profit on NUFC fans himself, heck he’s the one trying to sell riverboats for the Brentford match. He’s another one in the line of TF friends.

Big River Posted March 13, 2023 Share Posted March 13, 2023 everything about NUFC.co.uk is a bit embarrassing. I'm sure it'll be high on the list of improvements the club want to make Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
AyeDubbleYoo Posted March 13, 2023 Share Posted March 13, 2023 Yeah, like I’ve said before we need a completely new website and digital infrastructure. Sure we’ll get started on it soon. Hopefully will include physical things like electronic tickets. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I sometimes go along to watch Carlisle when NUFC aren't playing and even they do E-Tickets. Buy your ticket online and your phone is scanned at the turnstile. Piece of piss. They also still offer a traditional paper ticket option. Surely we must be one of the last PL clubs to do give an E-Ticket option. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

They do e-tickets (scanned PDF on phone) in some of the corporate areas but no doubt it's one of many areas of the club that needs an upgrade after many years of neglect.

AyeDubbleYoo Posted March 14, 2023 Share Posted March 14, 2023 We had print at home for a while, I used to take a screenshot and put my phone in the scanner instead of printing it. But they stopped allowing print at home a while back. All of this stuff is pretty long and expensive so I guess will take a while. Might even be done after stadium expansion I guess.

I know people have issues with certain members of the trust being all about self-interest, but you can hardly expect them to not take a position where they’re saying ‘if you want a voice, join the trust’. It’s like expecting a Union to ballot an entire workforce about strike action, rather than just their members. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
AyeDubbleYoo Posted March 14, 2023 Share Posted March 14, 2023 I'm not having a go at the trust, they are just in an unusual situation because every Newcastle fan has a vested interest in what they're doing. Might also encourage people to join the trust if they are involved and see a clear example of the benefits. For example, the trust could send out the survey and the club could email it to their list too. Hopefully trust members are representative of the wider fan base and it won't be a major issue, but I still think it would be a positive move. Considering people 'members' who gave £1 on a vague promise about Mike Ashley is also a bit of a stretch of the term (again though, I'm not criticising them, just asking).

Any fan-based ‘trust’ or whatever you want to call it, is only as powerful as its members. If it’s not got the numbers in that regard, then no club will bother engaging on any kind or meaningful scale. Why would they? The trust has to do everything it can to push for people to join. So if someone wants to have their say on ticketing via this survey, they’re obviously going to ask them to join up first. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
