To be fair to them, while I may not be taking up the offer and they're obviously jumping on us for their own gain and stealing our fans, to me its a goodwill gesture that they didn't have to make, I mean we don't like them but its just football and I can see why people may take up on the offer, something to do on the empty Saturday afternoons and I think my dad (who paid the club in April by cheque for a ST) would take advantage of the offer maybe once or twice next season.

That said, don't worry I couldn't care less about NTFC, it would only be to watch a game of football and they're certainly not going to draw in our support, we're totally committed to a phoenix club

And you wonder why people hated you??!?!?!?

NTFC let you do a bucket collection. They have made a nice gesture to your fans and look at some of the responses!

Amazing.

or maybe they read the thread on our forum where people are literally jumping for joy at their demise, and don't fancy rubbing shoulders with people like that?

don't take the moral high ground, our fans would be the exact same in this situation.

Thank you. For what it's worth I think it is a nice gesture, however you can't look past the fact that it is a slightly cynical ploy to get more fans.

Oh without doubt its a cynical ploy, of course it is, but sadly that is the way of football thesedays, it's a business.

Absolutely, it is just business. However, surely because of the cynical nature (making an offer only a few hours after we'd been declared dead) you can see why there has been a bit of a backlash from our fans, who are still hurting and will be for a while yet?
