Financially this is an extremely difficult time for the club. After initially being told the organisation was there to assist our club with monies” we have been told to f**k off “therefore we are formally announcing DUFC will no longer recognise Dundee Utd Supporters as a partner going forward.” 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My personal preference is for restructuring with 3 leagues of 14 clubs. Ah, promote two sides then, even though you're opposed to it happening for even one? 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wheel out testimony from people who knew him at Raith including such marvels as "loaning out your best player to a direct rival", "Letting a good prospect f**k off to a higher league when he was under contract for less than f**k all" and most famously "Not understanding the rules around emergency loans so that an outfield player had to go in goals for a crucial tie" and really it wouldn't take much to trash his credibility... What loop was he out of? John Nelms signed a piece of paper confirming Dundee wanted to vote no. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would prefer the current season to be finished and the new season to be delayed. The League Cup can be delayed or shortened and The Challenge Cup can be cancelled if necessary. I've always supported restructuring to form 3 leagues of 14. Four leagues plus the Highland and Lowland leagues is too much. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Could have signed about a half dozen of them if he wanted. It only gains importance once it's sent. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why would he sign it if he didnt want it sent? The whole thing makes it look like your management is a complete mess. You can easily imagine Nelms making his vote and telling Drysdale when to send it. Then your actual owner gets told, and doesnt want to vote until hes heard the whole situation. Nelms then cuts out Drysdale and directly contacts the SPFL to void the vote that hasnt even been sent yet. This whole delay is probably just an internal cat fight.

You don't fill in a voting paper on a such an important issue unless you are absolutely sure which way you are going to vote! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
