As far as the goals we conceded I think if we had Crighton and Fordyce at the back we would’ve been able to prevent them . Trying not to be pessimistic but As I said last week If someone offered me 4th place right now I’d take it and run. I think the defence will take care of itself. As much as the core of the team is the same we had five new players in the starting 11. Just need to give everyone time to gel , get match sharp and let Murray find out about what the best system and 11 is. Especially the Sabatini and Robert who haven’t played in Scotland before. We’ve got 2 preseason games left followed by 2 betfred cup games which in my opinion should be treated as friendlies. So we have over 3 weeks training before the real stuff starts.

I quite liked the look of Thomson as well had just started his first few games after injury before lockdown after previously getting a few sub appearances. Remember his injury clearly and it looked a bad one so suspect we are yet to really see the best of him. But with o’reilly Robert carrick and Thomson we have plenty of options in the wide areas. On a side note just saw thistle have signed kouider - Aissa on loan from livi exactly what we need in the squad - guaranteed goals imo.

If the West Ham thing doesn’t pull through will be interesting to see if we pull in any Scottish loans . Had a player from hibs with Murray’s connections there the last two seasons. Not sure if we are or not allowed to make 5 subs this season ? If so the strength off the bench is even more important this year

Agree with the striker situation wonder how much we couldn’t afford chucky by. Would’ve been a lot more confident with him in the squad. Having said that have trust in Murray’s and miller’s decision making and maybe the idea is to spread the goals throughout the teams with various attacking mids at our disposal

9 teams in league 1 and 3 teams in league 2 had higher average attendances than QP last year . Also glasgow has plenty of teams for people to chose to watch apart from the obvious OF. Pollok to name another. Going by the crowds Hamilton st Johnstone get I don’t think it’s a massive deal as they have shown they can sustain a team in the premier league on pretty low crowds. Anyway have watched the uprising of Queen’s Park from a far it is good to see a lower league team with a bit of hope and optimism around . Having been at a couple of your games when you shared at airdrie I wish you All the best [emoji106]

I rated big Nat at Airdrie could shrug off players, play a good pass and was good in the air . The downsides were his lack of any pace at all and often gave fouls away but I think as he’s bigger it may be easier for smaller players to buy fouls off him. Think there’s a lot worse than having big Nat in your team.

Agreed if it brings in more money to the club then I’m all for it they can have as many kits as they like. Think Clyde is problematic if we will continue with the black away strips as they have white red and black. Also I’m sure East fife bizarrely also played us at home wearing an all white strip with red on it [emoji23]

Still slightly concerned with where all the goals are coming from if we are to make a serious tilt at going up. We scored less than raith falkirk east fife and Montrose last season and bringing in chucky in January gave the impression we were looking to add goals . Hopefully we still are to add a striker .

Not highly rated by all . Came in at a young age and played every game but ultimately cost us stupid goals and points. You could probably get a better back up

Not read the latest guidelines but to be fair our return to training seemed a little premature in comparison to our counterparts any way. I’d imagine we will play little friendlies and with the betfred cup not to start until October a later return to training might not make much difference. Hope that there’s not more to it

Not that airdrie have the same finances as Falkirk but Stirling apparently offered Andy Ryan more money part time than we could offer him, so not surprised. No idea where these sides are getting their money from
