    • I am thinking that there is a Plan B already in place. Look at the jobs being advertised, look at the better results for the team, no stuff about the stadium seems to me to be an acceptance that it isn't going to happen.
      Let's be optimistic. Things are getting a wee bit better and John Nelms is still here.
      Not looking to give anyone a heart attack but maybe Nelms keeping out of the limelight has been a good idea?

        All the jobs being advertised could be as a result of a high turnover of staff. A week past Thursday I heard that there is now only one person in the Dundee Football Club digital team.

          I am surprised that Nelms has not published the updated plans for his new stadium development at Campy Nou at the same time as announcing the season ticket prices for the 2026-27 season on the Club website.

            Maybe there has to be something done about the Campy money spent so far. Could it be Plan B needs a good outcome to allow for not building a new stadium? Total speculation on my part, I admit, as I say, but might the non appearance of new stadium comment actually mean there is a change in thinking?

              But but but it's imminent, Nelmsy Strachan press D4l DSA and slos said so.

                • Had a wee look at the timeline of Aberdeens proposals,in 2017 they put their plans on hold after council chiefs asked them for more details,they thought about upgrading pittodrie but are now back on track with plans for a new stadium.
                  It just shows you it does take time even for clubs with a more upfront guvnor in charge.The club say the council approached them about the stadium,the rumour I heard from a quite reliable source was that the dundee council were happy with dundee fc to go with campy site.
                  My only hope is it gets resolved soon

                    No. I think this is just part for the course with developments in general. Football developments are more in the public domain because of fan interest. Aberdeen as already mentioned is a good example of similar issues.

                    • Well I think they have been had b cram.

                      Nothing has ever been imminent for the last 3 years but people have been continually rolled out for their moment in the spotlight to say it is.

                      The courier article today suggests nothing has moved forward and I'd suggest it's unlikely to.

                      Now wha mentioned Tannadice 5 years ago. 🤔

                      That threat of an obvious way out is there.

                        I am surprised that Nelms did not publish the designs for his new stadium development at Campy Nou at the same time as the season ticket prices for 2026-27 season were published on the Club website.
                        He has been strangely quiet with none of his usual complaints in the Courier about Transport Scotland stymieing his planning application for his new stadium development.

                          The A shares can block a move from Dens Park and Nelms has known that as far back as May 2018.

                            Be lucky if the dabs are allowed to play at the dump next season.

                              Islay, I dont think that is the case. It was the intention when they were created but I think legal action could be taken, by the majority share holders, to strike out this class of share.

                                At my first Dee4life board of directors meeting as a non voting guest in May 2018 the secretary announced that he had received a letter from John Nelms stating that he (Nelms) hoped that the Dee4life board of directors would give their blessing to Dundee Football Club moving from Dens Park to the new stadium at Camperdown as Dee4life could block this move under the entrenched rights of their A shares.
                                Almost 8 years ago John Nelms knew the powers that the A shares held which FPS had agreed to prior to them purchasing a majority shareholding in Dundee Football Club Limited in August 2013.
