All orders requesting postage have been notified of postage rates and books have been sent out accordingly. The mail box was full, due to it having a small capacity, but it is clear now.

If you are in the town, you can pick it up from my house if that suits.

Just to reply to the above two posts. There will be a limited number of softback copies available from the club shop from Saturday onwards. As regards the hardback, they will be only be available from me.

Just to update. The hardback copies of the book have arrived and I will collect them tomorrow. For those who have pre-ordered copies (and also softback) I will be in the Arena pre match Saturday between 1.00 and 2.30ish. For those who do not collect then, I will also be at the Fayre on Sunday. Anyone not at either, and have not asked for posting, get in touch to sort something out collection/ delivery wise. Cheers.

The centenary history book should be available for collection at Palmerston this weekend. I expect to have the hardback copies on Friday. Will update more tomorrow or Thursday.

Thanks. Hope you approve when you see it. Think it might keep you occupied for a while.

I apologise for the delay in putting out an update as regards the Queens Centenary History, but I can now confirm that the book is in the process of being printed. For those of you who ordered the hardback edition, pre-payment can now be made and I will publish collection details when I have the books. Please email me at museum@qosfc.com for details of how to pay. Anyone wanting a softback edition, you can also now pre-order. Thanks for your patience and interest, IAIN.

An update on the Centenary Book hardback edition. It was originally going to be only 100 - for obvious reasons as mentioned previously, but due to demand it has been decided to simply do as many hardback copies as are required. So, anyone now wishing to reserve a copy email museum@qosfc.com There will be a cut off point as the book is almost ready to go to print.

Went for 100 for obvious reasons, and yes a larger run could be done. It costs quite a bit more to print the hardback, so difference in price. Not sure about profit difference between the two.

Pre- publication orders for the 100 limited edition hard back copies has now been closed due to demand. will update accordingly.

It is hoped that the Queens Centenary book will be available around the beginning of November. It is proposed that there will be a limited edition of 100 hardback copies (price to be confirmed), with the remainder in softback. Could anyone who is interested in obtaining the hardback edition please email museum@qosfc.com to reserve a copy. Further details will follow shortly. The book will include a complete statistical history of the club.

Their number nine has played in the first team this season and the number eleven is an under 19 international with Finland. As regards the crowd, who were still trickling in twenty minutes after the start, there was a fair number of Rangers supporters present which certainly boosted it. Got both teams if anyone really interested.

Date for your diaries. The club Centenary dinner will be held on Saturday March 23rd in the Cairndale Hotel. More details to follow.

Noted JessieField. Will let you know about the prove reading. Meant to add that the book will be around 400 pages. Cheers.

As regards to earlier posts, I would just like to confirm that there will most definitely be an official Queens Centenary Book. This will be a complete re-write of my previous book from 2004 and 2008. It will also include a FULL statistical record of competitive fixtures, with dates, opponents, scores, scorers, attendances, teams and substitutes. There will be a limited hard back edition, with the publication date around December 2018. Further details will be available later.
