You mean the casino isnt happening?????

Fucking mind that :)) Murray sold us all a Vegas pipe dream.

I love the artwork of it though.
 
Inverness nearly 30 years on still hasn't got over amalgamation. It's hard to say the Dundee's should do the same, but I still think they should...
New team with a new stadium but keeps a conjoined history of both clubs. Easy to say from the outside
It seems very arrogant to suggest other teams do this when we all know that we would never want it for our own club.
 
It's a bold plan but can't see it getting any further than the drawings above.

15,000 seater stadium for a club that gets 5,000 is very ambitious.
I dont think they average near that do they?
Never going to happen no point.
 
Dundee do not need a 15,000 seater stadium.

Some of these diddy clubs really do have delusions of grandeur.

Also, a crematorium?

And the American owners. Come over, get diddy clubs, think they are the Glazers and do deloitte reviews and tell everyone they are going to change Scottish football.
 
Looks like they trying to get local council and private business involved in whole development. Couple of gigs per summer and punt plenty tickets to Us, Tramps, Utd, Edinburgh clubs and Sheep. Might work.
 
Ground share with Dundee Utd is the sensible option, a 15-20k stadium which could then be used if Aberdeen were playing any team bar us and them in a Semi. Could also be used for womens international and u21’s.

A decent stadium with half the seats blue and half the seats orange to make it fair.
 
I think this is all smoke and mirrors, if they get planning for the rest, they could easily sell the ground and build a 15000 seater stadium and stiff have a right few million to take back to the States
This will be something like Broadwood

United fans might want their seats to be tangerine.
 
Both Dundee clubs should work in harmony with the council and develop a city stadium in partnership with the hotelier. Or would that be too sensible?
Yes, or they could just amalgamate.
They could take Dundee from the club name Dundee and United from the club name Dundee United.
Giving them a new name of er ... Dundee United.

Okay ... I'll get my coat.
 
it’s just the same as the mutton molesters’ pipe dream, made of moonbeams and unicorn shoite. Never going to happen.
 
Made out of matchsticks and fairy fluff maybe. No way a club like Dundee could attract the investment to afford a state of the art ground. Also, nae fun saying your final goodbyes to a loved one in the attached cremy on a match day. Especially if the place was crawling with filthy orcs.
 
Congestion nightmare.

The place gets backed up at the weekend with folk going to McDonalds and KFC.

Imagine that plus match day traffic.
Dundee’s American owners are looking for the new ground and a local gives them directions ‘cross Kingsway and you will see two queues of cars, don’t join the big queue, that’s the KFC drive thru’

I said this years ago. Build something that holds about 25k. Would be used every week (sparsely I know), along with cup semis (depending on teams involved obviously) and would also be a decent size for music events etc.
 
This would be welcome tbh (as would Aberdeen) however I can’t see the Methdome becoming reality.

Usually groundshare gets mentioned in these cases.
 
Take it the mentally challengeds will be funding this the next time they want a vote to go their way?
 
Surely they could have a San Siro style* ground share with Dundee United. Sell one of the stadiums to development, upgrade one of them win win win. Although no doubt this will be shot down by them both in another fine move of Scottish football being so short sighted, they can't see the opportunity to develop/ advance.

*slightly smaller capacity maybe.
I’m sure that would go down as well in Dundee as “Why don’t Rangers and Celtic have a San Siro style….’ Would in glasgow .

Semi's would be ideal, it's long bene a bug bear of mine that semi's are played at the Hampden. The reward of getting to the final should be getting to play there, not getting to play there as its the semi.

Regional semi final venues easy the pressure on travelling support, some of whom can't access Hampden via train on the day of a semi final due to kick off times.

I agree. I know our support is regularly fucked over with early kick offs up north and such like, so there is little sympathy for other fans when it happens to them. I've never really understood that logic though. Slowly but surely the enjoyment of going to games is being sucked out of it. Stuff like this would definitely make certain aspects more appealing.
