    Question for Islay

    Not a trick question, just trying to get an understanding
    Were you part of the Dee4life committee that objected to the Americans take over

    No.
    I was a £1 member along with over 4,000 other members.
    It is not difficult to obtain the names of the Dee4life committee members at that time.
    I voted in favour of Football Partners Scotland LLP acquiring a majority shareholding in Dundee Football Club Limited.

    Perhaps you will now realise that I am very concerned about the running of Dundee Football Club by John Nelms.
    Losses every year apart from one year since FPS acquired a majority shareholding in Dundee Football Club Limited in August 2013 should be raising ‘alarm bells’ amongst the Dundee FC supporters with the latest set of annual accounts for the year ending 31st May 2023 being £2.8 million which was £2 million more than the year ending 31st May 2022.
    This cannot continue otherwise it will all end in tears.

    But his lackies at DSA still swallow all the ****e he punts their way without question; and as long as the DSA keep sending him money he'll keep giving them those scraps from his table.

    Wish more Dundee fans were a bit more sceptical.

    Were you concerned about the running of Dundee Football Club under the ownership of Cook, Dixon The Marrs, Melville? All of them incurred huge losses year in year out in their tenures including two admins and the club nearly going under. Are you saying Nelms is running the club worse than previous owners?

    Run differently isn't always run better but then of course by the same token it's not necessarily run worse.

    Only time will tell. I personally think it'll end badly, maybe not as badly as the Marrs / Melville eras but badly enough.

    The Bank of Scotland were to blame for Admin 1 when the Marrs were in charge.

    Nelms only speaks to Yes men and he ignores questions that he does not like.
