jamamafegan Posted May 27, 2022 Author Share Posted May 27, 2022 I was discussing with my old man the option of redeveloping Dens when we last visited the ground. It would be magic if Dundee did this. Fix up the stairway leading to the Derry and open this back up for use on match-days. It’s a unique part of the ground and it’s an absolute sin that it’s been neglected and left to rot. Then extend the Derry a little over to said steps. Knock down the old main stand and build a steep stand in its place using the existing footprint. This stand could perhaps take on the same design as Caley Thistles main stand except complete with roofs over the end sections and a bigger middle section. Don’t leave Dens lads, it’s a terrible idea. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Plus Keyes and Nelms want a whole Arena come Venue come Development thing. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If the old stand can’t be demolished because it’s listed will it just sit there and serve as a reminder of the past? All seems a bit ridiculous. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We have new build houses/flats on the inside of old factory walls. The council are very washy with the whole listed building thing. Flashback to when they told someone to rip down a giant old mill building and then got angry when they actually did it. Edit - the proposed site also has the old NCR building on it which is listed. Guessing handshakes will happen somewhere regarding that too. Edited May 27, 2022 by Crawford 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
