queenslad Posted August 29, 2021 Share Posted August 29, 2021 There seemed to be some confusion yesterday over whether seaon ticket were valid to allow holders to sit in their allocated seatsin the new stand. Stewards were apparently saying they weren't and people could sit anywhere. Caused a bit of ill feeling between some supporters. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JK_Queens Posted August 29, 2021 Share Posted August 29, 2021 Before I say this, appreciate this would take significant man power potentially to resolve. However, the not having a clue what seats are reserved for season tickets or not does annoy me. Did actually quite enjoy the allocated seats. I am not a season ticket holder and the seat I would usually sit in has been blocked off by the red zone. Given the plaques are years old, I’ve got no idea which seats are for season ticket holders and which are not. I might be wrong but I’m guessing the seats marked as reserved are not amended every season? I actually went to the toilet at half time yesterday and the seat I was sitting in had been bumped by the time I got back. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Slipmat Posted August 30, 2021 Share Posted August 30, 2021 I'm still not convinced that Reilly would have been as good a signing as some posters on here seem to believe. In the six seasons since he left us, he's only managed to score more than 4 goals over a season once. Admittedly it could be argued that he's played at a (slightly) higher level but that's still a pretty poor record for a striker. I'm happy to be proved wrong and if he does a job for Morton (provided it's not at our expense) I'll hold my hands up and be the first to say so, but for me he would have been a risky and relatively expensive signing. More to the point though in terms of this discussion, can anyone actually confirm that AJ wanted and/or tried to sign Reilly in the first place? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's as if some fans think we should go after every ex-Queens player who becomes available because they performed well for us several seasons ago. As you say Johnston might not even have made enquiries. We'll get the usual itk posters who'll say of course he did. Reilly is coming back from a serious injury, I'm quite happy to let Morton take the chance on his rehabilitation. We've already lost Cooper for much of the early part of the season through injury, seemingly quite a regular occurrence for him I believe, bringing in another potential crock would be too much of a risk, even though I appreciate they play in different positions. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[/quoteI agree with this - Gavin was a good player for us first time around but I think the Championship is definitely his level. If he came to us now not sure if he would be a definite starter - Rueben looks the clear first pick as target man and then you have Connolly, Roy and possibly Paton as very decent options playing off the big guy. Reilly doesn’t strike me as an obvious pick ahead of these players on current form and the last thing Gavin needs at this stage of his career is swapping one bench for another. Hope he does well at Morton and the step down might help him to re-establish him but it will be interesting to see how he does. The moves he has had have obviously been a big improvement financially but he has started very few games for Bristol Rov, Carlisle or Livvy and a lack of game time is not a positive on the Reilly cv. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I noticed he touched his hamstring briefly but my skepticism was he was looking for an excuse to get off the park. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Greenacres Posted August 30, 2021 Share Posted August 30, 2021 A fit Reilly is better than anything we have just now but I suppose that is the gamble his fitness . He is coming back from a bad injury Queens not prepared to take the risk Morton have time will tell who is right . Time to move on now crucial last day of the window hopefully AJ has a quality loan lined up time will tell 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He either picked up an injury or he's a good actor cos he looked in a bit of discomfort. I think your being a bit harsh on his performance considering against Hamilton, and Kilmarnock too , he was having to track back quite a lot of the time to help in midfield /defence, hardly the best circumstances to judge him as a striker. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was tongue-in-cheek tbh. I don't think it was harsh based on Saturday. I thought he was comfortably our worst player. I haven't been critical of him in previous games and think he's been good up until Saturday. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
