    In my email to Jim Thomson I also said to him that there was a lot of disquiet on the Dundee Football Club forums about the South Enclosure still being closed with no information from the Club advising when the Dundee supporters are going to be allowed back in.
    It does not affect me if the South Enclosure is open or closed as pre Covid I sat in the Main Stand and will be going back there when it eventually reopens.
    However I am happy to do my bit to try to find out when the Club are planning to reopen the South Enclosure to allow Dundee supporters to sit in their chosen stand at Dens Park.

    The management of Dundee Football Club should remember that it is the Dundee supporters purchasing their season tickets and paying at the gate for home games that pays their wages. Without them they would be losing their job and picking up their P45.

    Yesterday morning I received a reply to a post I had made about the same topic as we are currently discussing on the Friends of Dundee Football Club Facebook Page.
    The person who replied to me told me that the reason the Dundee and Motherwell fans were being segregated on Saturday was to stop the Covid-19 virus travelling back to Motherwell. What an unbelievable post by someone who obviously has not done his homework. The City of Dundee currently has 118.3 cases of the Covid-19 virus per 100,000 people while South Lanarkshire who are 2nd top of the list has 226 casesper 100,000 people and North Lanarkshire who are 5th top of the list has 214 cases per 100,000 people.
    Using this person’s reasoning for segregation at Dens Park on Saturday the Motherwell supporters should be banned from attending Dens Park as they are coming from a ‘hot spot’ area of Scotland where the Covid-19 virus appears to be out of control.
    The City of Dundee are 7th bottom in the list out 32 local authority areas in Scotland.
    I replied to this person’s post and explained that segregation of fans at Dens Park had been in operation for almost 40 years long before the Covid-19 virus had ever been mentioned. I have not received a second reply from this person to my explanation about segregation at Dens Park.
    In my opinion this is another person who has been brainwashed by the politicians, scientists, Health ‘experts’ and MSN instead of doing his own homework on the subject.

    It is a different story now with social media and forums on the Internet. Dundee Mad and the DBF can be viewed worldwide.

    We have been banging on about this topic, the stadium and how it is not being used or looked after for some years. I can understand that when you don't own a building and you are expecting to vacate it it seems logical to try to keep the expenses of maintaining it to the minimum. Somehow, I think, this sensible course of action has morphed into something entirely different where the policy is now actively losing the club revenue in the form of paying fans. 500 PATG fans per game should be worth £7500 if they all paid an average of £15. 19 home games makes that sum balloon to £142500.

    Why not try to find a marketing strategy for the SE that will get it filled and the revenue can be used to pay back the costs of maintenance? I don't believe the stadium manager is responsible for the current policy. I know others are absolutely opposite in their opinion but it seems to me to be so reasonable to try to boost attendances and increase revenue that there must be more to it than a single person's dislike of some of the fans and where they want to sit?

    I further added in my reply that segregation between Dundee supporters and opposition supporters at Dens Park was to prevent trouble and fighting between both sets of fans.
