NUSC’s core objective is sound. Effective representation of supporters may not lead to utopia, but it can curb the worst excesses of owner abuse. Give supporters a way of being loyal without being s*** on. If we’d had a 10,000 strong NUSC ten years ago Shepherd would have thought twice about kicking supporters out of their seats, and if he’d still gone ahead we could have put up a real fight. As is was it was left to six blokes to stand up for supporters rights. Sometimes Chairmen and owners have to make unpopular decisions to grow the club, and fans don't always see the bigger picture. I doubt Shepherd was moving those six supporters because he had something against them, it was probably commercial reasons. This is why I don't trust fans to have too much say on club policies, although sensible input would be a good thing.

I wonder how they expect to "get involved in the ownership" of a private company owned by a man they spend their entire time slagging off.
Smacks of the money's running out and we need more members to me. They'll only be happy when we're relegated so that can smugly tell everyone they told us so.
Thought they were having a meeting in Prudhoe, that already happened or what?

Been any fall out from it? Probably the biggest thing thats happened in Prudhoe since the castle was built
Well, I'm sure that spreading daft rumours around the region will be no end of help in getting involved in the ownership of the club and participating in the decision-making process.

Bet he's planning to take over the world, evil genius that he is.
