Official Nelmsy Campus Countdown

DSA members are the 23 member clubs x there membership, I’d hazard a guess at between 650 and 700

According to discussion at the Dee4life members meeting held online a week past Monday the DSA have 32 member clubs with the addition of all the members of these clubs totalling between 2,000 and 3,000 people. One Dundee FC supporters club has two members.
It was also mentioned that there was a Dundee FC supporters club which had 1,500 members.
By my calculations this will be the Friends of Dundee FC Facebook Group which has no annual membership fee and a number of the people registered as members of the Friends of Dundee Football Club Facebook Group are also members of other Dundee FC supporters clubs affiliated to the DSA.

DSA has no members, it has affiliate clubs and club members become DSA affiliates through their clubs. As you rightly point out some of those clubs have very few members - some of them are based in foreign countries on the other side of the world and their members never see Dundee FC play except on Fire Stick. But because if John Nelms says 'jump' the DSA asks 'how high' they are his favoured supporters' organisation.

It was a very clever move to include the 'Friends Of Dundee FC' Facebook group as a club to artificially boost affiliate numbers - in fact too clever for the DSA board to have made it, it must have been John Nelms' idea.
