My query is if you take out all the offices and training facilities from Dens what could you do with the space? Bigger hospitality rooms? A better match day experience? Improve the Main Stand?
Maybe holding on to Dens is a more viable plan B now that Gardyne is in place?
Everything seems to be in favour of the Community Trust as they are moving from their offices behind the Bob Shankly Stand to the offices at Gardyne Road.
What will happen to this building.
This building at Gardyne Road used be the Dundee College of Education building before Dundee College of Education merged with the Northern College of Education and moved to Aberdeen.
Dundee and Angus College moved into the Gardyne Road site and it will probably suit them to rent out part of the premises to Dundee Football Club.
Back in 1977 I was the treasurer of the Bank of Scotland Dundee Sports and Social Club who used to hire the games hall and the heated swimming pool every Monday evening.
