He's saying the right things. But he has three or four minute responses to short, focused questions. He's a good talker but not that good. My view is the answers were too concise to be off the cuff - and I know for a fact he likes to be advised of, and approve, questions before interviews.

Another give away was the question on DSA involvement in response to which he raves about the DSA - which is fair enough. However any decent interviewer, setting their own questions, would surely go to the obvious follow up question to that one and would want to know why he won't deal with Dee4Life.

I agree it was all scripted,but its in house TV. So was never going to be like question time,let's just hope things move on.

I've always been sceptical that Nou Campy would ever happen but I hope it does.

Yes he is a twister and doesn't like unexpected questions.

I was as sceptical as the next guy about Nou Campy but to be fair, FPS deserve some credit for this deal and the fact that we’re going to stay at Dens until the new stadium is available.  I don’t know what more they could do to get some people onside.

Why has the purchase of Dens taken so long? Why is the new stadium process taking so long?

He explained that. Hoops

Hand club  blazers out to dee4life board members would be a good start

No, hoops wouldn't take that long... it's just because we are in a better place now...no thanks to Nelms who is clueless.

I am not so sure about it. I prefer the traditional stadiums in the correct place. Look at McDiarmid Park. What an abortion. No atmosphere and way out of town. Have to drive etc.

Just watched STV with Chris (the Don) and Stefani (the DAB) and was this news on the show? Nada.

Was Nelms on the show? Nada.

Was the stadium news on the show together with this interview? Nada.

Planned, scripted, edited (probably) and okayed by JN.

It’s no atmosphere because Saints are lucky to get two thousand fans through their doors.

He has privately expressed dismay at how long things take to plan and build in UK compared to USA.

I do know that they have had to pay for reports on protected wildlife, listed buildings (NCR remains which was listed, investigate the vegetation for any plants of special scientific interest, any items of historical interest ( I have seen the report which mentions pictish remains on the site, its public domain if you look hard enough).

You dont have to that to build a conservatory!

The interview locked on DeeTV is with the general media rather than the one with the DeeTV crew. Very informative and addresses the Dee4Life stuff (briefly).

Really liked what he had to say. He's a good talker. He should do more of this stuff as he has the ability for it and he's good at putting minds at ease IMO.

I don’t think DFC have editorial control of who appears on STV programmes.
