    By the time it's built we'll be driving hover cars and surviving on protein pills.

    You could be right, but you can’t deny that FPS have been good for the club, financially.

    Remember the Hemmings escape clause. Took up loads of posts.

    If you consider that Dundee Football Club Limited being due FPS and Dark Blue Property Holdings Limited over £2.2 million at 31st May 2022 is good financially for Dundee Football Club then I agree with you.
    However if Tim Keyes decides to stop bankrolling Dundee Football Club and he wants his loans repaid then where is the money going to come from.

    Some of the posters on Pravda think that Dens Park is now owned by Dundee Football Club which is another myth.

    I do not think that they financially backed Gary Bowyer as apart from signing Tyler French and signing Joe Grayson from Barrow FC on loan whose loan was subsequently cancelled last December (2022) allegedly because Dundee FC were hard up.
    Gary Bowyer had to get rid of players such as Niall McGinn and Zak Rudden on loan to St Johnstone before he could sign players on loan until the end of last season.
    Dundee Football Club could have saved a lot of money if their staff had remained at Dens Park instead of signing a three year lease plus the option of an extra year with Dundee and Angus College at their Gardyne Complex to use a suite of offices.
    They could have rented the grass pitches at Gardyne whilst remaining at Dens Park.
