Interestingly John Nelms also mentions in the article that he was present at a near full Dens Park for a pre season friendly in August 2012 against United which proved that there was a large Dundee FC support.
In my opinion John Nelms did not do his homework otherwise he would have discovered that a lot of ‘one game Charlie’s’ supporting both Dundee and United attend derby matches between both clubs.
I do not remember this game being played let alone it being a pre season friendly.
However if it did take place then there was another simple reason for the large attendance. It was Dundee FC’s first time back in the Premier League as Club 12 since we were relegated at the end of the 2004-5 season.
Islay, it is great to have historically accurate comments from you, however, I think most of us are worried about the possible future actions of our owners. Is it possible to create a case for them buying Dens?
