The DSA committee members do as they are told by Nelms otherwise they will lose their privileges in Dundee Football Club and at Gardyne.
The DSA committee members were due to have a meeting with the Dee4life board of directors until the Football Club (Nelms) intervened and told the DSA that the Football Club were not happy about the DSA having a meeting with Dee4life because of an article in a recent Dee4life newsletter.
They only way that Nelms could have known about this meeting was if someone on the DSA committee had blabbed to Nelms about it because Dee4life are banned from Gardyne.

I'll be watching with interest.

The Dee4life AGM is taking place on Saturday 29th November 2025 at 11.30am and it is being held in the Dundee Social Club.

Last Thursday I heard that there was no guest speaker at the DSA Player of the Year dinner in May 2025 because John Nelms objected to the proposed guest speaker because the guest speaker had previously stated a derogatory comment.
Nelms threatened to ban the players from attending the 2025 Player of the Year dinner if this guest speaker was at the dinner.
Needless to say the ?gutless? DSA committee members did as Nelms requested resulting in no guest speaker being present at the dinner.
In my opinion if the DSA committee members had any guts they should have told Nelms to take a hike and see whether Nelms had the ?bottle? to ban the players from attending or not.
Meanwhile everyone attending the dinner should have received a small refund on their ticket price as the guest speaker would he been paid ?500 plus expenses for their speech in addition to a free meal for what it is worth.

You heard, WTF who from? Who was the absent guest speaker?

As if Nelms would ban the players from attending. You re living in cloud cuckoo land.

Do you think anyone would be bothered by ?4/5 each?

The Treasurer of the Forfar Dark Blues told me Nelms was not happy about the name of the proposed guest speaker for the DSA Player of the Year dinner in May 2025 and she had heard that Nelms had threatened to ban the players from attending the dinner.
I do not understand why John Nelms was complaining as he was not present at the dinner despite being listed in the Order of Presentation which stated that John Nelms was giving a speech from 9.40pm to 9.50pm.
The 2025 Player of the year dinner was dragged out to allow for no guest speaker and it was a pale shadow of previous DSA Player of the Year dinners.
The secretary of the DSA should be explaining who was the proposed guest speaker for the DSA Player of the Year dinner in May 2025 and why there was no guest speaker at the dinner.

All depends what you get banned for.

Some bans have no honour.
