The Friends of Dundee members do not pay an annual subscription.

I think they do, they’d need to to qualify for POTY tickets

[Deeranged]

I’d predict Big Rabbies Dark Blues have at least double our number, going on numbers requested for Queens Park match, membership is into four figures, Broughty Ferry and Carnoustie, although they don’t run a bus to all away matches do have a large membership

I appreciate there will be four or five, maybe six larger clubs but the average membership number will be significantly smaller than the membership of those clubs because of the clubs with single figure memberships. Not challenging too strongly on the idea that totals might exceed 1,000 but for me I estimate as low as 700 and possibly as high as 1,200. Not 'thousands'.

I joined that page a while back and didn't pay any fees. Got off it very quickly because in all honesty it's populated by some very weird people.

Any idea how many go to the AGM? I know for a fact that the DSA can't give tickets away, I refused one myself a few years back.

You cud probably half that number for active club members.

I've estimated on the high side because I'm trying to get somewhere near a justifiable statement of 'thousands of members'.

I genuinely suspect they're counting the numbers on that FaceBook group as 'members'. A lie that Nelms will be happy to go along with as it perpetuates his justification of speaking to the DSA sycophants and not the Dee4Life board who are happier to ask him the awkward questions.

Ours has roughly 90 paid members this year.

They don’t attend monthly meeting, the head boy stays in Carlisle but they hope someone local will attend,
player of the year sold out every year, some clubs don’t take full allocation though some request more, I haven’t been for years as it’s always a Sunday, I’d need to take a days holiday

I am a member of the Friends of Dundee FC Facebook Page and I have never seen anything about members having to pay a membership fee to qualify to attend the POTY dinner.

It is likely that a lot of members of Dundee supporters clubs are also members of the Friends of Dundee FC Facebook group.
