I've just googled what Pravda was and I'm still none the wiser.
Enlighten me

You can't be more enlightened

Pravda is a complimentary nickname for TDB forum. In Russian the word means truth. Thought I would help Eric.

Nae idea what Pravda is but is our crowd that much down on last season?
I've no idea tbh.

There looks to be less people sitting the Bobby Cox Stand compared to last season but on the plus side the Main Stand sees to have more people sitting in it than last season.

Now to get back on the topic.
I was present at a Dee4life board of directors meeting as a non voting guest in 2019.
At every meeting there was the usual update from the Dee4life secondary representative Bob Hynd about the new stadium development at Campy Nou.
On this occasion Bob Hynd told us that shortly after Tim Keyes had purchased the 29.7 acres site of the former NCR Camperdown playing fields from Vico Camperdown Limited, Tim Keyes tried to sell it back to them but they were not interested.
No wonder. Vico Camperdown Limited had been trying to sell their 29.7 acres site for about 5 years with no one interested until Dark Blue Property Holdings Limited arrived on the scene.
The Dee4life secretary said at the meeting that perhaps Vico Camperdown Limited had been dissolved.
I immediately replied that the previous week it was still in business as it was listed on the Companies House website.
Vico Camperdown Limited is still in business but it changed its name in 2021.
The above information if correct might account for the fact that Tim Keyes never mentions anything about the new stadium development in the former NCR Camperdown grounds as he realises that he made a mistake purchasing the site for ?1,296,000 (One million, two hundred and ninety six thousand pounds) with no planning permission consents in place on the site.
I have kept this information to myself but with the planning application dragging along and a lot nonsense being posted on Pravda (Dark Blues Forum) about it I have decided to post this information.
I hope that the posters on the Dark Blues Forum such as Billy Campbell’s Ghost, Reverend Lovejoy, Napier and various other posters are paying attention to this post.

Nelms was giving a presentation to the Dundee and Angus Chamber of Commerce on Wednesday 15th January 2025 headed Campy Nou more than a football ground. https://www.dundeeandanguschamber.co...tball-stadium-
This presentation was promoted by Dundee Football Club despite Dundee Football Club only being tenants if this new stadium is ever built.
In my opinion the presentation should have been promoted by Dark Blue Property Holdings Limited.
The timing of Nelms?s presentation is interesting and more delaying tactics especially as there is an article by Michael Grant in last Sunday?s Sunday Times newspaper which states that the hearing for the planning application for the new stadium development at Camperdown destined for this month has been delayed until March.
The same article states that this summer Dundee Football Club will leave Gardyne and flit to its own new training complex at the city?s Riverside. Does anyone know if work has commenced on the new Dundee FC Community Trust training complex.
When Planning Permission in Principle was granted I read that the Community Trust had three years to build the complex and Dundee City Council would decide when the work could commence.
This might have something to do with environmental health rules.

It will be Tannadice unless the entrenched rights of A shares are used to block this move.
This is why FPS and Nelms in particular was determined to purchase all the Dundee Football Club Limited A shares held by Dee4life for the derisory sum of ?8,000 later increased to ?10,000.
