My previous point seems to have been missed. The Trust are now going to seriously investigate fan ownership. So you'll see a bit of meat added to the bones of well meaning discussion on here.
This is taken from their Facebook page on Wednesday:

The second day of any new year is always a poignant one in the Trust calendar - on this day in 1992 NTFC Supporters Trust, the original football supporters trust, was born.
As we enter our 28th year, we hope that the frustrations and disappointments of 2018 will transform into a more hopeful and positive 2019 on and off the field.
The Trust has a number of goals this year and we would love your support, input and feedback to help us on our way.
We are hopeful of a breakthrough which will enable the east stand at Sixfields to finally be re-developed.
And while we understand that much of the detail of the negotiation between the council and football club is commercially sensitive, we think it is only fair for supporters to be given a meaningful position statement in terms of the scale of the intended development at Sixfields and a likely timescale.
The end of the Cardoza reign was unsatisfactorily shrouded by an all-encompassing veil of confidentiality - for reasons which then soon became painfully apparent.
We are quite clear in our view that we feel that any development on the Sixfields footprint should be for community benefit, along the lines of the original plans when the community stadium was built for the people of Northampton in 1994.
We are delighted that the stadium has been listed as an asset of community value but will be pressing the council to afford the same status to the surrounding land too.
We have also pledged to explore the idea of a fan ownership model for Northampton Town and will be reporting back on this shortly.
We admit that this presents many challenges and that it could only be reasonably done on the back of significant financial investment in the club.
Please join in the debate over the coming weeks and months, we would welcome any constructive views on the subject.
Finally, we are looking to communicate more effectively with the membership and the fanbase.
Many say they only hear from the Trust when the AGM mailout falls through the letterbox - it should be pointed out that we aim to keep mailing costs at a minimum.
But we are hoping to issue regular updates via email and social media, as well as holding open forums when applicable.
Any support you can give us would be much appreciated - while the club appears to be on a stable footing at present, we all know that rainy days never seem to be far away.
Up the Cobblers!
