Thought those who spoke gave valuable 8nformation and worthwhile opinions. Need to give Dee4life Board a chance to work on a way forward. Confrontation not worked at all, so think of something else.
Seemed to me a pragmatic approach.

How long do they need? To date they've done absolutely nothing in the form of creating a way forward.

While they were humphing about JN yesterday I switched the gas fire on in the front room and held my own feet to it. In effect I've done more in ten minutes yesterday than they have in that respect over the last two years.

It's high time that they either deliver something tangible for the membership or stand aside.

Last Wednesday I sent an email to Andrew Pyke Secretary of Dee4life and Keith Winter Chairman of Dee4life highlighting that FPS are in breach of the entrenched rights of the A shares which states that the maximum total of loans outstanding at the end of the Dundee Football Club Limited financial year should be a maximum of ?50,000.
The Dundee Football Club Limited annual accounts for the year ending 31st May May 2023 listed the loans due to FPS are ?2,430,523 and ?2,384,443 is due to Dark Blue Property Holdings Limited.
This is a total of ?4,814,966 somewhat in excess of the ?50,000 maximum under the entrenched right of the A shares which have to be paid off within the next 12 months.
I also told Andrew Pyke and Keith Winter to stop *****footing about with John Nelms and submit the names of their Primary representative and Secondary representative to Nelms immediately after the end of the Dee4life AGM on Saturday 1st February 2025.
I have not received a reply from either of them.
If Dee4life want to maintain their current number of members and increase their membership they need to put submit their Primary representative to be elected to the Dundee Football Club Limited board of directors which cannot be blocked by Nelms under rules 79-82 of the DFC Ltd Articles of Association dated 13th August 2013 which were agreed by FPS including John Nelms.
They must also submit their Secondary representative with immediate effect.
The first three people nominated by the Dee4life board of directors as their Secondary representative can be blocked by Nelms but he must accept the fourth person nominated by the Dee4life board of directors.
The days for talking about John Nelms refusing to speak to Dee4life because Nelms hates Dee4life are over. (Source minutes of the Dee4life AGM held in November 2023 where John Nelms’s message boy Matt Edwards told the Dee4life members present that John Nelms hates Dee4life).
Action must immediately be taken by the Dee4life board of directors instead of continually ‘kicking the can down the road’ which has got them nowhere as Nelms continues to hide away in his Gardyne bunker only speaking to Yes men.

The Dee4life board submitted Kenny Valentine as their Primary representative after the end of the Dee4life AGM in November 2022.
A reply was received on 7th December 2022 signed Dundee FC Ltd (probably John Nelms) stating that the nomination of Kenny Valentine as the Dee4life Primary representative was a hostile act which would be dealt with under the Club?s Articles of Incorporation (sic). This is an American term.
I stated at the Dee4life board of directors meeting on 15th December 2022 that we should reply to John Nelms advising that we are nominating Kenny Valentine as the Dee4life Primary representative on the Dundee Football Club Limited board of directors and the DFC Ltd board of directors must accept Kenny Valentine?s nomination under rules 79-82 of the Dundee Football Club Limited Articles of Association.
Grant Hill the vice chairman of Dee4life was not in favour of this as he wanted more dialogue with John Nelms.
The majority of the Dee4life board of directors agreed with Grant Hill and this golden opportunity was lost.
Over two years later Dee4life have gone backwards thanks to a majority of Dee4life directors adopting delaying tactics which has got them nowhere apart from losing almost 200 members since the Dee4life AGM in November 2023.
I still have a copy of the letter signed Dundee FC Ltd stating that the nomination of the Dee4life Primary representative at the end of November 2022 was a hostile act.
The letter also included the pack of lies about the visit my wife and I had at Gardyne including the tour of the premises and the letter sent to Dark Blue Property Holdings Limited by a Dee4life Director which was not in favour of the new stadium development at Campy Nou. This was a breach of the 2018 Data Protection Act by the Directors of Dark Blue Property Holdings Limited.
The letter was seen by all the Dee4life directors which includes a Dundee City Councillor who is also a member of the Dundee City Council Planning Committee.
