    Trying to remember

    How long it was from the start of a wee bit heat from the fans and new perspective buyers that Dixon and Cook decided to get out of Dodge.

    Dixon from memory took a bit longer.

    Really sense the tide has turned very quickly against Nelms and this may well be the beginning of the end in the Americans involvement.

    They and "us" (use that term very loosely) seem to be pulling in completely different directions

    Last night I read two different posts on another Dundee supporters forum that John Nelms is hardly ever at Dens Park from Monday to Friday with staff at Dens Park having difficulty getting in touch with him.
    Posters were expressing disquiet about Nelms receiving a 6 figure salary but not being at work in Dens Park.
    If true Nelms can no longer play the ‘Covid ticket’ and say that he is working from home.

    Well, that’s not going to end well.

    He doesn't have to play the "covid ticket"

    Not if his boss Tim Keyes phones Dens Park and asks to speak to John Nelms to be told that we rarely see Mr Nelms from Monday to Friday. He only turns up on Saturday to attend Dundee FC matches and watch them getting beaten.

    Tim Keyes isn't John Nelms' boss, they're equal partners.

    How do you know he only attends on Saturdays? How do you know he's not working from home?
