Let's be honest here, UniDundee: you don't know who these people from the U.S. are, no United fans know a thing about these Americans, nobody on the various supporters' groups have the names of these Yankees, yet you 'heard' that a shared stadium is on the cards. 

It sounds implausible that you have any credible information, when you don't know who these investors are. But you 'heard'?

Are you special?

 
He's obviously a Dee

Just because I put up something that you don't like....

I don't post often, no point in posting after every win, draw or defeat you just start repeating yourself, but doesn't mean that I am a Dundee fan, Celtic fan, Rangers fan, Hearts or even Arbroath. 

You're a bit paranoid, chill.

Ffs pat. I like yer posts on here but that's below the belt imo. Twice youve had a pop at him now.
There has been loose talk about sharing grounds. The dundee yanks have been at tannadice meaning rumours and shit come round. Campy isnt happening for them so folk put 2 and 2 together. Wind yer neck in ffs.

Dundee MD John Nelms met our Chairman Mike Martin in Oct at Tannadice, that came from someone that works at the club. No idea what the meeting was about though, maybe Pat will say that I should lol.

Good grief. Self confessed bigot, now this.

PM sent.
 

If what's being said is true by this time tomorrow we might have new owner's and know nothing about them. Is this a first in a city that leaks more than Julian Assange ffs hard to believe noone knows who they are and what they're about. If spencey is right and they want their own new board it worries me
This could be great but it could also be a disaster if they team up wi the Texans to obliterate both clubs into one.

Don't normally feel comfy posting on topics like this, but am acquainted with someone who works for the Club. They've told me in so far as they know, it's got nothing to do with Keyes or Nelms.

I do worry it is something to do with Stephen Thompson in some way though.

This is the scariest thought about the takeover that somehow he will find his way back in - no fan wants that

Utd FC Group still fresh in the memory.

Opposite direction Tek.
 

Yes.

But remember these rumours of American interest started about 2 years ago after Thompson himself flew out there to meet investors.

I'm probably just unecessarily speculating but if/when this takeover is announced the fans deserve total transparency on the matter.

i.e. who are these people? What is their interest in Football/Dundee United? How did the move come about?What are their ambitions for the club?Will they be moving to Scotland and  being 'hands on' etc etc?

Surely Thompson will not be involved in this?  He'd need to be a serious glutton for punishment if he was to try and get involved with the club again - he must know the level of bad feeling towards him from the fanbase.

Don't get this link people are making with the American's at Dens either - the USA is a one hell of a big place!

This guy is right, I just looked on a map and it's fucking massive.

Stephen Thompson no longer has anything to do with investment from the USA, nor DUFC, but he did previously meet the investors, knows who they are & they do indeed exist.

Genuine question.  How do you know?  Do you know an employee/ex-employee at the club? Work at the club yourself? Know the alleged investors?

Its not the the Yanks from across the road. 

It's not Americans buying us, just people long-based in America.

1 of the Yanks has investments or owns a chain of hospitals/medical centres I heard.

Dr Michael Gregory, owner of Apogee Healthcare?  He was seemingly interested about 3 years ago. Even sent his number 2 to Dundee to look things over.  Not who I've heard though.  Pity, he might sort our medical staff out.
