Why....

...aren't the club pushing the fact that a Supporters Coach is going to Hartlepool next Saturday. Don't they want as many supporters to travel and support the team.?
Due to lack of trains etc, driving is a 600 mile round trip, a coach is the only practical way to get to the game unless supporters are willing to stay overnight. Or is it because the Supporters Trust is running it. Any supporter can go on the coach, not just members.

Can't see anything on the club web site or any club social media, very strange.

Aren't the Supporters Trust organising it?
They seem to be publicising enough.

Yes, but surely the club should be publicising it as well.

Well you still appear to have found out about it so why are you worrying?

Some people just need something to complain about.

Yes, I am a Trust Memebr so obviously I knew about it. However it seems to me (correct me if you like) that the club is not willing to promote any efforts that the Trust are making to get supporters to this away trip. Sorry, but the club should be promoting the coach far and wide. I have emailed the club to ask for a response on the matter. Maybe I get a reply, maybe not.

I see why some people would want the club to publicise it, but I think we’ve seen it’s done well enough with the trust plugging it.

And a lot of credit must go to those who’ve worked behind the scenes to get the coach sorted, whilst at the same time we should lay half a thanks to the club board for agreeing to let the trust take over running away travel.

In the grand scheme of things it’s a minuscule point that they haven’t publicised it, we’ll all still be there by hook or by crook!

what platform are you looking at?

I have seen it well publicised across x/twitter by various accounts.
Well done to the Trust for organising.

I could be wrong, but last number I heard through the grapevine was 30.. which if true is a good turnout for what I assume will be a 50odd seater.

Must have been well publicised then.
