Nelms did say that the catering income generated for St Johnstone was like a few thousand ST sales. Can't remember the exact number but even 3000 ST at ?350 would be worth ?1m.
Things are totally different in Perth which has only one professional football club plus the owner and management of St Johnstone FC are lifelong St Johnstone supporters which is certainly not the case with Tim Keyes and John Nelms.
I cannot see any Dundee United supporters and their families using the Crematorium at Campy Nou for starters plus Dundee supporters who by then have discovered that the profits from the Crematorium are not going into Dundee Football Club.
