    Would hope that there is some discussion about the way to price season tickets and concession tickets and single game tickets. I think that as a significant shareholder Dee4life should receive more detailed information about income and costs. I also think individuals who hold shares should be given more financial information about our club. At the start of FPS ownership, the club’s full accounts were published. I don’t think they generated anything like the interest and debate that the current filleted accounts do.

    Just my guess at the possible revenue.

    ST sales say 3500, revenue raised say 1500 @£325=£487500, 1500@ £190= £285000 and 500 @ £60=£30000. Total £802500
    PATG 19 games at an average of £15 per supporter and an average of 800 per game=£228000, Away support average could be an average of 300 with the same pricing average of £15 per supporter = £85500 TOTAL £1116000.

    I think that someone should be helping the club to maximise revenue. I don't see anyone paying attention to pricing, and the offer of a modern e Ticketing system seems to me to be an obvious step forward.

    Just look at the positive comments about the outcome of this transfer window. We should be shouting from the roof tops about our prospects of winning this league. Supporters who don't have season tickets need to be enthused to turn up on the day of each home match. I think positive threads like this one are very helpful to the club.

    You will need to get someone from the DSA to help the Club maximise revenue because John Nelms does not speak to anyone else.
    It does not help matters that the club website still listing the 2021-22 season sponsors of the first team players.

    What do you think the reasons John Nelms won't speak to Dee4Life are.
    I'd say progress has been made by Dee4Life getting several meetings with the General Manager who according to Dee4Life releases, answered all these questions.
    All without inviting the DSA to a meeting with a club rep. They dont all need to go into the same meetings I don't think - especially if dffering issues are being discussed

    At a meeting in the Dens Park boardroom on 4th January 2020 between John Nelms and the Dee4life board of directors John Nelms stated that in future Dee4life would be invited to attend meetings attended by the DSA, Dee Promotions, the Club and the Charity.
    It never happened as Dee4life were not invited to attend the meeting held on 27th January 2020 and they have never been invited to attend any subsequent meetings.

    That doesn't answer the question why you think John Nelms won't meet with Dee4Life.
    You're talking about them not being invited to a meeting three years ago!!!

    That meeting was held when Ian Baird was put forward as the Dee4life nominated primary representative under the entrenched rights of the A shares.
    John Nelms refused to accept Ian Baird’s nomination.

    That still doesn't answer the question why you think Nelms won't meet with Dee4Life

    Plus you were talking about a meeting between different DFC groups over 3 years ago - not a meeting regarding Ian Baird. Id Let that one go.
    Dee4Life have now been welcomed into Gardyne
