It is a pity that all SPFL clubs in Scotland are not forced to publish their full accounts on the Companies House website.
Dundee United and St Johnstone have published full annual accounts for the year ending 31st May 2024 whilst Dundee FC publish Filleted Annual Accounts which tell us very little.
St Johnstone directors report even mentioned former players who had died such as Benny Rooney.
In my opinion the Dundee Football Club annual accounts should publish as a minimum;
1. The total income for the year.
2. The total expenditure for the year.
3. The annual salary of the highest paid director.
In March 2022 I contacted the Club’s auditors to highlight that there were four mistakes in the Dundee Football Club Limited annual accounts for the year ending 31st May 2020 because the Dundee Football Club Limited Company Secretary had failed to notify a debt for equity transaction on 8th February 2020 to Companies House.
This resulted in the Dundee Football Club Limited annual accounts for the year ending 31st May 2021 having to be restated.
The Club’s senior auditor admitted that he should have noticed this error and restating Annual Accounts is admitting that the previous annual accounts contained mistakes.
I asked the senior auditor why Dundee Football Club do not publish full annual accounts which Dundee United publish. The Club’s senior auditor told me that it is the Dundee FC’s directors choice to only publish Filleted Annual Accounts.

Islay, many many companies with large majority shareholders do not publish full accounts. The guarantee that the accounts are a true reflection of the performance of the company is based on the integrity of the auditors.

Dundee United FC publish full annual accounts and they hold an annual AGM for their shareholders to attend.
If it good enough for Dundee United FC then it is good enough for Dundee FC to do likewise.

I don't disagree with you. I think that an inference that somehow this is a sneaky decision by John Nelms is wide of the mark, and it is not sinister.

arabs everywhere on TDB

Never been on it.

Anyone got a link?

[GB72]

Had a nosey there, the usual Arabs spouting their anti dee nonsense

And then there's the downright crazy posts

Dundee are skint
no players are signing cause elvis voice is boring
And to top it off, we can't afford to sign league 1 or league 2 players

Checking notes, a league one player signed last week

How's there transfer gossip going? More life in a cemetery

The way things are at the moment both on and off the park there sure is plenty to moan about and most fans on here and TDB site are rightly giving it to JN, Pressley, the new players and the club in general. There is, however, and imo, a difference between the genuine fan hurting and lashing out and the infiltration of the DABs on TDB site where their ramblings stand out for me from the former. The genuine moans and groans, all well warranted, seem again to me to be anger, disappointment and at times futile hope. The DABs currently holding forth over on TDB site don't seem to be able to hide their delight at our plight and whilst the genuine fan occasionally posts something positive (not easy at present I know) the DAB never does. I, and many on here and on TDB, know well who they are but the hierarchy over on TDB don't seem to see it, want to see it or want to do anything about it. It's a forking disgrace, that TDB site.

At least our two resident DAB dafties on here don't hide their allegiance and that alone is their only saving grace.

Half a dozen at least but hey monies are monies to those cretins who run it.

Yes half a dozen at least. What I can't understand is the ones who have hundreds even a thousand posts hiding undercover for months even years. The few, albeit very obvious ones, can't help themselves and quickly go ott and are so discovered and occasionally banned. The long term lurkers seem to get away with it but what motivates them to spend so long simply trying to wind up the real fan posters I don't know. Weirdos !!!

Still never seen it and don?t know how to access it.

Always thought you were on it but there isnt really anyone on it with your turn of phrase in brutalist sarcasm.

Your no missing much.....except a likely banning.

He's been on it under multiple user names. Wouldn't be surprised to find out he's one of the more abusive users that pop in now and again then disappear like sna' aff a dyke when they get called out - same as his MO on here really.

Says he doesn't know how to access it. So essentially saying he doesn't know how to use a search engine? He's thick but not that thick surely?

I'll sit back and wait for the response which will be one of his tired, old and over used made up criticisms of me which I find both amusing and interesting.

I haven?t mate.

Not like you to be wrong but, hey ho.
