The Queen of the South thread


Recommended Posts

They did, yes! The thing was, even though they were a goal down they kept playing possession, negative football, constantly passing backwards towards their own keeper! (Zivchenko? Must be Russian for "pass backwards"! ) Even though they were getting beat, they'd rather just keep possession than risk going forwards to create a chance. It was awful to watch.

They've played possession football all season, seemed to have worked quite well for them so far?
Also, proyti nazad is Russian for pass backwards. Zivchenko is a player who played left back.

Take good care of him, he's a crackin prospect. Below is from the @officialkillie website .......

Curtis Lyle has joined Queen of the South on a loan deal until April 8.

The goalkeeper will remain with the Championship outfit on a short-term move and provide competition for Gary Naysmith’s side.

Curtis will link up with Killie team-mate Dom Thomas at Palmerston Park as Queens eye a promotion play-off spot.

Having spent the season playing for Andy Millen’s Development Squad, the 18-year-old made the bench for first team for games against Ross County and Aberdeen.

Everyone at the club wishes Curtis all the best during his loan spell.

Does anyone know who our top LOAN PLAYER goal scorer is? 

Kerr and Kane are joint top loan player scorers with 5 (4 league) each. Eta this season, of course.

I presumed he meant all time, which would be an interesting question. If we ignore players "guesting" all over the place in the immediate post WW2 era depending on where they were stationed the notion of loans for more than a month or two is a relatively recent phenomenon. I imagine it wouldnt be that difficult to check, at least for Connolly era onwards.

I might have a look later. Doubt there will be many higher than 5 though. If we ignore goalkeepers like MacDonald and Clark has anyone before Thomas and Thomson had multiple outfield loan spells? How many did Lyle get in his initial loan spell from Thistle back in 2002?

Not promising this is comprehensive but, by season and I think these are loan players:

2000-01: Stewart Greacen (3 games, 0 goals), Stuart King (6 games, 1 goal)
2001-02: Craig Feroz (10 games, 5 goals), Murray McDowall (2 games, 0 goals), Martin Glancy (4 games, 0 goals), Derek Lyle (13 games, 6 goals)
2002-03: Paul Shields (17 games, 3 goals), Robbie Neilson (17 games, 0 goals), Robbie Henderson (3 games, 0 goals), Steven Renicks (7 games, 0 goals)
2003-04: Paul McMullan (14 games, 0 goals), Craig Samson (12 games)
2004-05: Craig Samson (1 game)
2005-06: Shaun Dillon (7 games, 0 goals), Ryan McStay (14 games, 0 goals), Graeme Weir (15 games, 2 goals),
2006-07: Barry Callaghan (11 games, 0 goals), Dermot McCaffrey (11 games, 0 goals), Andrew Barrowman (12 games, 0 goals), Craig Hinchcliffe (5 games), Jamie MacDonald (16 games), Willie Gibson (5 games, 0 goals), Jamie Adams (13 games, 3 goals), Stevie Murray (14 games, 2 goals)
2007-08: David Bingham (18 games, 0 goals), Jamie Mole (10 games, 0 goals), Neil McGowan (4 games, 0 goals), Jamie Adams (1 game, 0 goals), David Nixon (2 games, 0 goals), John Stewart (21 games, 3 goals), Robert Campbell (4 games, 0 goals),
2008-09: Cammy Bell (19 games), Jamie Adams (6 games, 0 goals), Craig Sives (12 games, 0 goals), Steven Kinniburgh (2 games, 0 goals), Lee Robinson (18 games),
2009-10: Dennis Wyness (8 games, 2 goals), Jordan McMillan (16 games, 0 goals), Marvin Andrews (2 games, 0 goals), Joe Hammil (6 games, 0 goals)
2010-11: Ryan Conroy (14 games, 3 goals)
2011-12: John Potter (13 games, 0 goals)
2012-13: No loan players
2013-14: Zander Clark (29 games), Bob McHugh (15 games, 4 goals). Lewis Kidd (6 games, 0 goals)
2014-15: Zander Clark (39 games), Greg Kiltie (3 games, 0 goals)
2015-16: Andrew Murdoch (10 games, 1 goal), Alex Harris (27 games, 4 goals), Liam Coogans (3 games, 0 goals)
2016-17: Connor McManus (4 games, 0 goals), Dom Thomas (18 games, 3 goals), Joe Thomson (17 games, 4 goals)
2017-18: Chris Kane (20 games, 5 goals), Jason Kerr (19 games, 5 goals), Myles Beerman (4 games, 0 goals), Kyle Cameron (4 games, 0 goals), Curtis Lyle (0 games), Dom Thomas (4 games, 1 goal), Joe Thomson (8 games, 0 goals), Nikolay Todorov (4 games, 0 goals)

So from that the most is indeed Derek Lyle with 6 goal in 2002. Craig Feroz, Jason Kerr and Chris Kane all have 5. Bob McHugh and Alex Harris got 4 goals which is what both Dom Thomas and Joe Thomson have to date. Jamie Adams, Paul Shields, John Stewart and Ryan Conroy have 3.

Although as we all know every other goal pales into insignificance next to John Stewart's winner against Aberdeen so he wins by default!
