Never played for us so that's drivel. We got relegated that season so he might have been worth a try 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes - although he was just in as a trialist and never signed. He was always "injured" and he lived up to his reputation! Edited to add - no idea where the 15 appearances comes from - as Mick1867 says he never played for us.

Hampden Diehard Posted March 24, 2022 Share Posted March 24, 2022 17 hours ago, an86 said: If the SFA want to rent out our stadium for any reason, I’d take the absolute piss out of them price wise. If they don’t want to pay up, we can run our own events and take the profit. A million times this. They shafted us and even a small concession like having one last game at Hampden in front of a crowd seems to be off the radar. (I'm assuming we've asked). We owe them nothing and nothing would give me greater pleasure than having a fanzone at big games run by, and for the coffers of, Queen's Park. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I believe there us a plan in place to capitalise on large crowds at Hampden without any tie to the SFA etc. basically a stand alone venue like any other pub etc but we just happen to be the closest to the gig. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anonymous Spider Posted March 25, 2022 Share Posted March 25, 2022 https://queensparkfc.co.uk/queens-park-confirm-owen-coyle/ Have my doubts about the process that got us to here but this is an outstanding appointment. Sounds like he’s going to be on the scene. Not too concerned about the 1st June thing. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boris the Spider Posted March 25, 2022 Share Posted March 25, 2022 Aye - 1st June gives him a chance to start afresh with a clean (ish) slate and appraise the squad beforehand. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
qpfc Posted March 25, 2022 Share Posted March 25, 2022 (edited) I see no issue with the June 1st info. The statement suggests that Coyle is going to be involved heavily for the remaining games of the season, although probably not in the dugout for match days. Going by Beuker’s words in the final paragraph, it seems like he’s insinuating that the appointment will essentially allow him to do his job now and work towards next season. I’d imagine that means his responsibility for taking training during the week will now be much limited or taken away completely for him to do what he was employed for in the first place Edited March 25, 2022 by qpfc 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CathcartSkins Posted March 25, 2022 Share Posted March 25, 2022 A good appointment. Am not too fused about the June start date, the less messing about with team preparations and style at this stage is no bad thing. And now looking forward to the game at the weekend....who are we up against? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
williebraveheart Posted March 25, 2022 Share Posted March 25, 2022 I must confess that I was a Jack Ross fan back in January but the more I read about his playing style and Owen Coyle's style and achievements I think this is a most exciting appointment. I wish him well. I assume that Sandy Stewart will come with the package which would be icing on the cake. Greg Stewart would be a big fat cherry. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bring Your Own Socks Posted March 25, 2022 Share Posted March 25, 2022 (edited) The June date must be a contractual thing and the CEO is keeping it tidy for both parties sake. Makes it improbable he’ll be on the dugout but will certainly be involved at Lochinch and the dressing room on match days. He’s certainly got it in his locker to get us through the knockout play-offs. We’ll see if the players can live up to that. Most importantly for me he can make a real close inspection of what we have, what can be made better, what’s not going to work and get all the shapes sorted for a summer transfer charge, some of which might be tied up long before we know about it. We now have a short, medium and long term plan all in a straight line. We might make something of this professional malarkey yet. Welcome to our club Own Coyle.

Mick1867 Posted March 26, 2022 Share Posted March 26, 2022 Potter doing the coach's column in today's online programme instead of Beuker. That suggests Beuker is now getting on with his actual job 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Velvet Donkey Posted March 27, 2022 Share Posted March 27, 2022 Looks like Cambuslang Rangers won their league yesterday. Wonder if Scott Williamson is free to join us for the remaining games. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I understand we are outside the registration window for recalling loan players for them to be eligible for league (and potential play-off) games. Clyde were penalised for doing this a few years back. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
