Why are the results not posted in the Ridings shop window? along with details of winners and how to join

All valid points, the club have a lot to do, and to be fair to the fans we have all put up with a second rate offer for a while now, it needs improving.

One thing that was always leveled at the old owner was the clubs lack of communication, one think that is evidently lacking in club 1873 is just that.

All the whistles and bells of the launch have fallen off.

4/10 must try a lot harder.

Just be patient a little bit longer. Things are in motion and hope to be able to announce something shortly.

Thats a damn good idea Coco. Simple but effective

Yep i'm aware of that.



Thats really missing the point TRB, the damage is already done, you don't shout from the rooftops about the biggest meeting in the clubs history and recieve massive support on the night then not reveal how the money will benefit the next batch of players coming through. All fans want to know is how the money is spent, they want some feedback and to see the good its doing and how that will encourage others to join up.



I know it won't go down well but it needs saying, we all want the same thing but its been a let down imo.



Its not rocket science.

I agree with you - not enough info, but we can't move things any quicker than we are doing and the club will respond.

Good i'm sure they will and we can all move forward, i don't like whinging believe it or not

It's frustrating to watch the life slowly ebb out of this scheme - it could be really good, but it appears they want £2 a week from supporters for nothing - back to the bad old days of Trinity being a charity...



Personally i'm out after the next £3k draw - or in the unlikely event of someone winning this before then (it's hard enough to get three numbers let alone 4).



I'll spend the £100 a year on trinity a different way.

I'm still trying to figure out what fans want in the way of supporting your club, yes it would be great to hear where the monies are being directed but after all its only been going long one year. You get the chance of a return for help funding the lottery



And as for cancelling your SO and giving it to the club in some other way ie club shop it won't have the same effect as its directed solely at the academy set up which is the foundation of the club.



this ain't going to happen over night and I'm hoping that with all the effort will start to kick in within the next couple of years



As far as I can remember we have had only last weeks late in being put up on the website so I can forgive them once





We have been shouting for the club to do its own lottery for ages so we could help the club and now we are getting complaints, is it that bad that we couldn't spare the cost of a pint once a week

I think the draw should be done in the week and anounced in wakey express on a Friday morning. a bit coverage of how the 1873 draw is benefiting the club and everyone is happy, let's face we do the draw to benefit the club any self gain is just a bonus. It's better than trailing to the newsagents to do the weekly trinity draw or whatever it was 20+ years ago

I think it should be down to the guy who is running the draw, to get the info out who has won and where the money is spent.....

That's the risk and it's one that the club probably needs to adress.



It could be solved fairly easily; if Mr Elston or someone else at the club did a weekly blog and included details of the 1873 scheme and how the monies are benefitting the youth set-up, that's issue one solved. If the weekly draw was published on the website, in the WE and on one of those flashing LED boards in the shop window, that's issue two solved.



It's a shame if people are feeling sufficiently disillusioned with it that they want to cancel the SO; there's some good stuff being done with the proceeds (we appointed an education co-ordinator and are now ensuring that youngsters get a more well-rounded support network when they join the club) and it would be sad to lose that for want of a bit more communication with members.
