Trinity Times Issue 1 : Thu Feb 09, 2023 5:11 pm  

I'm guessing we can advertise this, if not Mods feel free to take down.

It's ready and I've already spotted a typo, but that's life.

It's now £2 but it's improved dramatically from the first test version.

It's moved from 8 to 10 pages.

Now includes...

Full team sheet - both teams.

The Trinity first 17 quiz - and it ain't easy.

Renouf Atoni Review - from Trinity Heritage and a brilliant read.

An in depth history of our meetings with Catalan - from Trinity Heritage and again a brilliant read.

News from the bloke down the chippie - a bit of gossip and humour.

RW&B Army - see what they have been up to.

The Trinity Sage - Man of mystery, but take it from me, he knows more about RL than most having been involved in the game most levels for nearly fifty years. It will make you think, but you may not agree!

Match report - from the Featherstone game.

Sadly no results yet from the Reserves or the Youth teams as no games have been played.

He's trying something out. I'm pretty sure he's explained how it's working so I'm going to stick my neck out and say no, you are not getting an online version.
I'm sure Hub can clarify if I'm wrong.

If you really want one, maybe if you spoke nicely to him, and paid a premium price, he might scan it for you.
But personally, I would make it a BIG premium if he does.

Given a lot of thought to this and the answer is no.

TT is not a fanzine, so it's main aim is to make money for the club. It's also not a traditional match day programme either. It's there to entertain for twenty minutes pre kick off or at half time.

But It is also a chronicle of the season, that charts the clubs progress through the year at all levels, whilst constantly referencing its history. To me on-line doesn't suit it, both financially and in purpose, sorry.

Whether the shop will be selling any paper copies left over I don't know, so you may be able to get them that way.

However, at the end of the season, just in time for Christmas, we will release a compendium of the best of TT plus a fair few extra features but minus the posters. It will be approx. 42 pages, full colour, on glossy paper and stapled, a proper magazine. It won't be cheap, but it will be a perfect record of the season - good or bad.

Hope that helps.

Anyone else know where you'd actually buy these on Friday? Or is it a guy walking round with them?

I'm lead to believe that it will be sold by the Trinity X Dance Team externally and internally to the ground.

I did put them in touch with the club to take over the selling off it (they volunteered to offer support) but I've not been privy to those discussions. I'm assuming all is well and that is the plan as I haven't been asked to provide any support in the sales on Friday night.

Re: Trinity Times Issue 1 : Tue Feb 14, 2023 1:59 pm  

To be honest I don't know for sure.

The guy who normally sells Mighty Trin will be selling them inside the ground. The guy is happy to do so from the gates opening to them shutting. What has been arranged with Trinity X I'm not sure.

At present we are unsure as to volumes so the one guy could probably easily sell the 250 for this game. Truth is with the ground in the state it is at present and sales unsure it's not been fully decided how to progress.

I'm hoping that by the time the big games arrive in the later part of the season the ground will be more settled and we will be up to 500 copies at least. Personally I don't think the TT will hit its stride until next season, when we can allocate sellers to the East stand, which I suspect will be the biggest area for sales, and leave the chap whose name escapes me to do the ground.

I believe that selling outside the ground is not what the club want to do, mainly for security/safety reasons, somebody with a few hundred in loose change is an easy target. At some point we could introduce card readers but we need to know our market first.

I know people might think we could push it more and we could, but putting a match on at present is very difficult indeed, so it's not a high priority and I get that - but if it sells well I'm sure it will be.

Just to add it will be available in the shop from tomorrow I believe if that helps?
