What cash would that be ? Pandemic, what pandemic ? Loss of income, what loss of income ?

Yes, it's probably going to be another season scrambling about the bottom end if the Championship relying on good quality loans to keep us above the drop zone. I can accept that if the alternative is pumping in money that we can't really afford. The BOD will be trying all they can simply to keep us full time, but even if we have to go part-time, or a hybrid, it'll be better than the alternative of no club or rattling collection buckets trying to find cash to throw into a bottomless pit. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DeeGeeOneHamer Posted May 10, 2021 Share Posted May 10, 2021 The BoD stated in the last accounts their aim is always for us to be promoted, a tough ask but that's what they want to do without breaking the bank. Only 2 ways of that happening if you ask me, either they fund it themselves (unlikely and not sustainable), or the good people of Dumfries and surrounding area get out and watch them, increased ST and matchday income (unlikely as it's been donkey's years since we've had large crowds). I see the attempts that are made to engage with the local community, but is there more that could be done? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
football maniac Posted May 10, 2021 Share Posted May 10, 2021 Last season was the model we should always look to follow. Signing a mix of new players from down south, young promising loanees and some experienced heads who know the league well. It would be nice if our own youth system could blood through a few young players too. Last season was a lost generation in some ways as there was no youth/reserve footy so they couldn't really kick on as usual. Johnston did a decent job on a low budget. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alex Nesovic's Barmy Army Posted May 10, 2021 Share Posted May 10, 2021 I think quite possibly. One tweak would be signing guys on longer deals for sell on etc but that aside, tough to disagree.

TERREGLES1919 Posted May 10, 2021 Share Posted May 10, 2021 (edited) Queens should be able to give the young players a chance next season that have come thru the youth system instead of loaning them out to the Lowland League or sitting on or off the subs bench.

19QOS19 Posted May 12, 2021 Share Posted May 12, 2021 I wonder if AJ will be in touch with Durnan now he's leaving Falkirk. I doubt many bigger clubs will be sniffing around him given he's on a downward trajectory. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He undoubtedly had his best spell with us but he seems to have been pretty shit elsewhere. Some players fit at clubs and he could be a returning player that finds his previous form but I think it's more likely he'd continue to flop. I won't be surprised to see him return though. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
