Went by last night and over the last week or so the foundations for the structures at either end of the east stand look to be almost finished, there's been some panelling added to the facade of the changing room structure and also a few bits and pieces of work on the foundations for the director's gilded palace. A couple pictures from the phone so not great quality: Cheers Snapper. Keep them coming when you can please. Every picture adds to the story. Much appreciated. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Didn't see that drop coming I must admit Rumour was he has a new career outside of football so his full-time commitment to the game is over. Presumably his new job allows time for part-time. Still got plenty in him for the Lowland. With a bit more space and time from defenders he’ll do well this season. Nice bloke. Wish him all the best. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A couple pictures from the phone so not great quality: Living somewhat distant from Hampden it's good to know of any progress (or even if there has been no further progress). The club do not keep supporters or even members up to date with what is happening. Gone are the days of the regular email update from the club - I miss that. Anyway, thanks snapper, your photos and updates are more than welcome. Keep 'em coming. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FFC 1876 Posted June 10, 2022 Share Posted June 10, 2022 Any news on what's happening with Simon Murray? We were rumoured to have signed him on a pre contract but obviously they count for nothing these days. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Quite out the blue Queen of the South fans seemed to be sure he was there. Reading Falkirk thread and I have a funny feeling, for absolutely no reason, that Charlie Telfer will end up at QP too. Just seems to fit the profile of the recent QP signings 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Got 3 in 4 against us last season He should do very well in the Lowland League. Still only 30. Potential for the leagues top scorer I would say and EK should challenge for the top spots yet again. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just seems to fit the profile of the recent QP signings Thought that too. He had 1 year left at Peterhead but a clause in his contract that he could go if offered full time football. Didn't expect a fee to be paid. Queen's Park love a creative, nimble, attacking midfielder or did last season. Telfer is a decent shout. Someone will sign for him soon. Building something nice with Thomas as well. A strong DCM / holding midfielder next I feel.

FFC 1876 Posted June 10, 2022 Share Posted June 10, 2022 Excellent signing for you lot, looked a real player with Peterhead last season. Was hoping we'd have been bringing him in as a replacement for Telfer. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With excellent coaching he could be a real winner. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Needs someone in beside him doing the dirty work, we had him trying to do everything last season and therefore didn't get the best out of him.

He’s a bit of a hoor right enough. I think he’s got an option with us at the moment which hopefully means he’s still in contract with us. Club has spent a few guineas on getting his leg fixed so I’d like to think if he does go we get some coin in return. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just seems to fit the profile of the recent QP signings Given the wages that QP are reputed to be offering players, there will be no clubs in the Championship or League 1 that will be able to compete if a player is moving solely for money. Is it a sustainable model though ? Or is Haughey bankrolling it in the same way Mileson did at Gretna ? Albeit Haughey is considerably richer than Mileson. What QP do have in their favour is, if they ever decide to play in Glasgow, the potential to tap into the potential support and revenue that playing in Scotlands biggest city brings. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
