sidofthesouth Posted February 16, 2019 Share Posted February 16, 2019 Has the club started extending players contracts for next season yet? If not why? Also same applies with the management team, get them signed!! Wouldn’t be the worst outcome in the world if Naysmith got another club with a bigger budget - he probably deserves a crack at that to see what he could do. We then bring Allan Johnston back and see if he can work his magic again. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He had by far the best players in the league to his disposal. He never done very well at the clubs he went to after he left Palmerston ie Pars this year with much bigger budget than Naysmith had this season... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The latter has done a decent job at this level whereas AJ has been at a club with a bigger budget and hasn't done very well. I called it at the time that he should never have taken the Killie job as it wasn't a great long term move and too big a jump. I was shot down by some, but given where he is now I maintain he'd be in a better place had he stayed with us at least one more season. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We went to Rugby Park, got a red card seconds into the game and almost came away with a 2-2 draw, beat Rangers at Ibrox, beat 3 teams in the tier above (Dumbarton, Morton and Partick) before winning the challenge cup, and only lost twice in 36 league games. Regardless of the level, that’s an extremely impressive record. If we were to get relegated this season I can almost guarantee we wouldn’t have anywhere near that record next season.In saying that, he had a crack at the division multiple times with a big budget at the Pars, and wasn’t a great success. Would rather have GN, but if he was to move on, I’d happily take a risk on Magic. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
queenslad Posted February 16, 2019 Share Posted February 16, 2019 Anyone else think we were only playing with 10 men second half - I didn't think so. Why the difference in performance. We need to change the shape of the team for next week. We caused more problems in second half with 10 men than we did in the first. Second half played two up. Did Dundee Utd sit back on their lead - I don't think so. I think we forced them back with the set up. We need to be a bit more positive next week against Alloa from the start. We looked comfortable playing 3 at the back 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JessieField Posted February 17, 2019 Share Posted February 17, 2019 What's the point in Queens paying a fortune for policing/stewarding when foul mouthed Dundee Utd supporting fans are allowed to sit in the old stand instead of moving them to sit among their own fans? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Segregation, whatever you want to call it, is non existent! If it wasn't for the fact that Queens fans are (bye and large) good natured, then there could have been serious trouble in the old stand. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Should be played in inverness. Not sure why we would inconvenience Scottish fans to suit fans of another team who have no investment in Scottish football. I`m sure Mr Doncaster wouldn't allow that Edited February 17, 2019 by Distant Doonhamer 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They’re going strong this season with a tiny budget (allegedly 2nd smallest in that league). Very young squad down at annan. Would be interesting to see how he fares at FT football. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
