    I know people want to ignore or dismiss that scenario but to me it's a possibility.
    I don't ignore or dismiss it just don't see it happening. I think a new groundshare has no doubt been approached but the dabs won't go for it.
    Something will eventually give but see the fans being more involved as probably a last resort.

    In my opinion a new stadium at Campy Nou was never on Tim Keyes agenda until the Regional Sports Centre at Caird Park costing £21 million was scrapped by Dundee City Council.
    However that is for another topic.

    In my opinion John Nelms sits in his bunker in Dens Park and is only interested in himself.
    Bring back Spoofer as Chief Executive.
    I can't eat after 7pm or I turn into an evil zombie like creature

    Agree with all that say about Nelms but bear in mind he's a clever, clever guy so he knows what he's doing and why. Pity he can't tell his customers though.

    The spoofer thing is a no from me, guy was a fraud and too much of a The The Rangers fan to be involved with a club like ours, OK at a non traditional club with no history like ICT but not at a great club like ours.

    I remember reading on Pravda that when Stephen Thompson was in charge at Tannadice he had been in discussions with John Nelms about the Dabs ground sharing at Campy Nou.
    Back then Thompson had sold Tannadice to a rich supporter who held a standard security over the ground with the Dabs making agreed yearly repayments.
    After Mark Ogren took over United he redeemed all the standard security’s held over Tannadice park and various parcels of land bordering the stadium including Gussie Park.
    Ogren has stated that he has no interest in ground sharing at Campy Nou which is not surprising as in my opinion there is no way that he would be able to sell Tannadice Park and surrounding land including Gussie Park for anything like he paid for it.

    A meal before 5pm isn't an evening meal imho.

    A meal at 5pm would be contentious if it could be classed as an evening meal......evening meal 5.30pm borderline, preferably between 6pm and 7pm........South Angus etiquette club.

    I just suggested Spoofer because he was the Dundee FC Chief Executive and supposedly a Dundee supporter when FPS shipped up and acquired their majority shareholding in Dundee Football Club Limited.
    Spoofer used to have Q & A’s with the Dundee supporters but since Nelms became Chief Executive/Managing Director communication from him has become non existent.

    A meal before 5pm would be classed in my opinion as High Tea.

    Dabs would very much go for it, guaranteed rent, solve a lot of their money problems.
