Can't get a game on at dens

They have also borrowed funds from Soho Green putting up Dens Park Stadium as security for loan which was granted on Tuesday 3rd October 2023 which is the same day as it was announced that Dark Blue Property Holdings Limited as the holding company had bought back Sandeman Properties Limited and with it the title deeds of Dens Park. You do not have to be Einstein to work out what will happen if this loan from Soho Green secured over Dens Park Stadium is not repaid in full including interest charged by the directors of Sandeman Properties Limited.

Someone else will step in.

Someone else will step in.

If the loan is not repaid in full including interest Soho Green will become the owners of Dens Park Stadium and they will likely advertise Dens Park Stadium for sale with it being sold to the highest bidder.
This is why it is imperative that the Dee4life board of directors set up a ‘Rainy Day’ fund and fund raising scheme with immediate effect.

Have said a rainy day fund was a good idea.

Dee4Life needs the club's buy in to make any rainy day fund raising effective. As long as JN is controlling DSA, and has enough people under his spell with talk of a new stadium, any efforts Dee4Life make to raise a rainy day fund will be pretty pointless. There will be too many people convinced by him that there's no need to support any Dee4Life efforts to raise a rainy day fund to make one viable.

I can see a time when the DSA sycophants, and the Dundee support in general, will be looking at Dee4Life and asking 'why don't you have a rainy day fund'? Having said that if this 'imminent' planning request isn't in place very soon more people might start rattling sabres - then we'll get another promise of course.

Oxford talking about 5k per seat for 18k stadium.

Aberdeen were 4k per seat

I raised this subject at Dee4life AGM on Saturday 11th November 2023 and said that if nothing was done and things went wrong regarding the repayment of the loan from Soho Green secured over Dens Park Stadium Dundee supporters would be asking why nothing was done until it was too late.

I am surprised that the directors of Dark Blue Property Holdings Limited are applying for Planning Permission in Principle (PPIP) for their new stadium development as according to the enclosed rules the maximum size of development when applying for PPIP is one hectare which is 1,000 square metres. The new stadium development site is 12.02 hectares in size. https://urbanistarchitecture.co.uk/p...-in-principle/
PLanning permission in Principle is usually for the building of between 1 and 9 houses on a site with the houses taking up the majority of the site.
That also rules out the building of new houses on the new stadium development site as there were more than nine houses on the original plans to be built with the area for the new houses to be less than 50% of the area of new stadium development site.
