Fans don't need to like who runs the club but most fans want their clubs to thrive.
Seems some on here want the club to fail.
To be proved right.
Just my opinion.
I only see one person hating John Nelms. The rest, myself included, just want him to explain his plans and justify the move from Dens to some new and potentially soulless stadium in terms of Dundee FC. Not commercial opportunities for his other companies such as DBPH through a crematorium and second rate band gigs (1,000 capacity isn't big enough for first rate bands) but Dundee FC - how do his plans benefit the club? Will it save on rent? Will it benefit from significantly more income from match day commercials?

Playing in a split new state of the art stadium with better facilities for the fans and players alike is one thing but if the club isn't significantly benefitting financially what's the point? Why bin 100 years pf tradition to move the same yo yo club to this new stadium? Will it result in a higher standard of footballer, team and entertainment or will we likely just be buying our pies and our bovril from a better laid out stall and eating / drinking them in a better stadium whilst watching the same old same old in The Championship?

That's all most of us want to know - exactly what's in it for Dundee FC? Couldn't care less about JN's other businesses.
