    I also helped trying to get a bank account closed which was originally a joint venture between D4L and the Club.
    We had great difficulty trying to get the account closed and in the end D4L gave up the rights to the balance of the account and sent a letter to John Nelms advising him that the bank account now belonged to the club.
    I do not know if the Club have closed the account or not as we never received a reply from Nelms thanking us for handing over the balance of the account to DFC.
    I also tried to promote using Easysearch as a search engine and Easyfundraising to raise funds for Dee4life.
    One person completing 10 searches using Dee4life.easysearch.org.uk as their search engine every day for a year would raise £18.25 for Dee4life. One hundred people would raise £1825. One thousand people would raise £18,250 Ten thousand people would raise £182,500 per annum.
    After five years a total of £912,500 would be raised which could pay for the £750,000 cost of buying back Dens Park with the remaining £162,500 being kept for future repairs and improvements.

    Ok,nothing really worthwhile. Why did DFL not shell out for the e ticketing system? Also why do you keep bringing this up, when you’re preference is cash gates.

    D4L offered in September 2022 to pay for the full cost of the installation of an E Ticketing system in Dens Park and John Nelms turned it down.
    Therefore you should be asking John Nelms why he turned down this generous offer.

    In 2018 when I was an official volunteer I suggested that Dee4life enter the Dee Promotions Youth draw and that they sponsor two first team players which Dee4life had never done up to then.
