Mustafa_sheet Posted August 21, 2018 Share Posted August 21, 2018 Clock repair men? No, funnily enough. Cherrypickers, yes.Sorry SD, I was being facetious! However on second thoughts, it’s actually a great metaphor for the current state of the ground......the place where time stood still! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steeplechat Posted August 21, 2018 Share Posted August 21, 2018 Any truth in the rumours that the manager has no more money left to bring in more players , even loan players ? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SUPERSOUTH Posted August 21, 2018 Share Posted August 21, 2018 (edited) Think it's time the Chairman/Board spoke to the fans and let them know what the situation with the club is in our centenary season. (lots of rumours doing the rounds). I Had really hoped this season we would be pushing for the play offs at the top of the league, We almost have a starting 11 of a good Championship side but if the manager doesn't get anymore players in to boost his squad we are more than likely to be looking at the relegation play offs. It's time to back the manager...... Edited August 21, 2018 by SUPERSOUTH 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think it's more fact than rumour, and it's hardly been a secret considering its been mentioned quite a lot on here. Losing out on a quarter-final place in the League Cup, and the money it would have generated, probably restricted our chances of bringing new players in even more. Unless deals can be made to bring in loanees with minimum outlay then what we have now is what the Manager had to work with. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought the club would want to make as much money as possible this Centenary season. I was looking forward to buying the light blue shirt so was disappointed that it's not being sold as one. I would buy the thing without sponsorship, but none of the warm up tops appear on the shop page of the website. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I asked the girl if it was the 3rd strip and she said yes. When I enquired why there was no sponsor on it she said it also doubles as a training top, hence the lower price. Pretty nice top. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
queenslad Posted August 21, 2018 Share Posted August 21, 2018 My first games were all cup ties - a sunday match against East Fife which we won 1nil with a pen; against Hearts in another cup tie think we lost 2nil and the one that got me started for real on my own was against Motherwell 1980? which we won 2-0 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If it's the same one I'm thinking about, I recall there was a bit of hassle between the Fife fans and Queens fans. There was no segregation as such in the covered terracing and stones were being thrown from one end to the other. I can't say I can recall what my first actual game was at Palmerston but George Farm was player/manager. Being a country boy and not living too close to Dumfries, my early visits relied on my dad's weekend off, and suitable buses, coinciding with a home game, which was maybe about 3 or 4 times a season. On moving closer to civilisation in the late -sixties I was able to start attending regularly and have done ever since. The lean times, of which I have endured plenty of along with others, certainly make you appreciate the "highs" even more. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’d imagine it was for a number of reason. She’s friends with the chairman. It’s good eye candy in the boardroom. And also for her own safety, as I’d imagine she would get dogs abuse in amongst Joe public. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As long as "SHE'S" not sitting in your seat it shouldn't be a problem. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
