Boo Khaki Posted January 8, 2023 Share Posted January 8, 2023 The club is losing money hand over fist and has been for years. Given that it's written off by the owners, I doubt that extra income gets ringfenced and stuck into a transfer kitty. Happy to be proven wrong if someone knows differently, but it's not like we're breaking even consistently and that extra revenue is just bonus disposable income. Fair enough if the budget is hard coded at the beginning of the year and any unplanned income is actually thrown into the playing budget, but somehow I doubt it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crawford Posted January 8, 2023 Share Posted January 8, 2023 It's been a few months, when are we due our next "this stadium thing is happening" from nelms? Is it time based or results (loss) based? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looks like there's been some activity on the Dark Blue Holdings Companies House page from last month, looks like they've secured a charge for a loan from an investor. https://find-and-update.company-information.service.gov.uk/company/SC507045/filing-history 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I suspect a major reason we haven't started contract negotiations with some players, with others not going to be offered anything regardless, is that they are getting paid way more at Dundee than they would elsewhere.Starting negotiations early with we want to pay you a lot less would just hack them off. Get the impression that the likes of Motherwell get much closer to the balance of quality to cost than we do. The McGinn signing being a classic example 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The McGinn signing being a classic example I’d imagine it would also be more difficult to negotiate not knowing what league we will be in next season.

Crawford Posted January 8, 2023 Share Posted January 8, 2023 Right, can someone tell me who broke up with that cromarty lassie in the other thread? She's took it awfully bad and hates the whole of Dundee for it. Might want to change your number and maybe move address. That's a wrongun. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s a done deal apparently Did well with no support last season. People thought he was lazy and missed to many chances but we would have been dead and buried without him last season. scored goals you wouldn’t expect him to and missed goals you would expect him to score. he is massively unfit as he hasn’t kicked a ball this season Edited January 9, 2023 by ryanayr1987 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
