    If we go down the route of some full time part time players .
    A couple of locals who I think could do a job are
    1- scot hopper who I thought unlucky to leave us was a decent player and versatile for annan and done well at Peterhead ( had a few injury issues) always have 100%
    2 Tommy muir local lad plays at annan everytime I seen him play he causes defence problems he is quick and not afraid to get stuck in I saw him score a hat trick for annan against cove he was unplayable that day . He is raw but training with dobbie could help .
    Would not cost a lot of money ethier.
    What are people’s thoughts and any others that might be any good

    Would have Hooper back in a heartbeat. 

    Tommy has just signed for Stenny, hopefully he keeps improving and ends up us in the near future. 

    I see Dalbeattie Star have re-signed Dan Orsi, that boy had bags of potential when he was with us, but sadly was never the same after he broke his leg. 

    Out of interest - anyone know who it was that snapped him?

    Havn't heard any news coming out of Palmerston lately, am sure the board are working away hard behind the scenes to ensure we have a team next season on the park but a little more  info for the supporters wouldn't go amiss.. Example  Did we get the 50k like rest of clubs, When's the season tickets etc going on sale shirt draw? More importantly when is the manager going to start signing players or atleast start talking to players for next season. Queens will certainly have the smallest first team squad in Scotland just now and no reserves either. 

    Can't find it online to post here but there's a bit in today's Standard about the 50k. Doesn't sound like we've received it yet but the payments are sent out quickly once signed.

    With all due respect I think the Qos Trust are going a little OTT with their membership advertising. Every time  I browse my usual Queens related pages on social media there’s yet another post. 

    Think we’ve got the message now guys. 

    You're upset about seeing Queens related posts on Queens related pages? During a time there's not much happening 

    I recently found out there's usually a mute/ignore button on these social media sites. Maybe try that rather than having a dig about advertising at people who do outstanding work for the club and fans.

    This. You'd think it was possible to come in, invest in medium /long term projects to increase revenue, as well as short term investment in the playing squad, and leave a club better off than before.

    Personally, you'd still lose money of course.

    Wonder why it never seems to work out that way

    It would more than likely have to be a fan. Someone who supports the club and is happy enough to put in money without wanting/expecting to make much or anything back. 

    Even if it was just an amount to boost finances for a season would be great.

    That won’t be the case , as I’m sure single game streaming will be available as well . It would be available to the occasional fan as well as away fans .

    Didn't realise 19QOS19 said only ST holders. There will be a fee for the occasional fan but I expect it to be close to a normal match day ticket price.

    Just re-read and noticed the streaming part. I assume/hope the wording is wrong but it reads to me that only ST holders would have access to these games. A massive mistake if that was the case.

    Yep only those who purchase season tickets will have access to a live stream. If crowds aren't back at football stadiums by the time the season starts then this is the route most clubs are going down.

    It is in today's Standard that we are staying full time and that our budget will be cut for next season .

    We have the smallest full time budget in Scotland right now to cut that more will be very difficult this is why we should be part time not a backward step for me 

    You sound surprised that the budget will be less. Were you expecting us to come out this pandemic richer?

    I agree with all that but a bit of speculation is fine by me and the opinions and knowledge of Dumfries football fans matters to me at this time of my football deprivation. I kind of rely on this site for information and speculation on how decisions on high could affect all our football teams.

    Well said. There was only so much I could read about the club online and like you, value the opinions and knowledge of my fellow supporters. Trying to give this a go as I don't get to games anymore unfortunately so when the football does start back up I'd like to hear about the game from fans and hear their different thoughts. Why that was questioned is beyond me.

    I've had a good read and I think once we have more to talk about then some of the nonsense will stop. I dont know why some people are reluctant to talk about football on a football forum. Wether that be pure speculation or not. 

    As for speculation, how about Willie Gibson next season? (I did ask a football related question about the reserves but no one has got back to me about that yet.) He's still at the club as far as I'm aware and he's still really fit. Maybe an idea if players are hard to come by when we start again.

    What kind of update are you looking for? 

    Thanks! I'm not here to cause trouble if that's the reason everyone is questioning me? I must say though it's keeping me busy.

    Is there a place I can go to read what the likes of FIFY etc mean? 

    Queens related I was wondering about the £50k we're getting - is that only for testing? 

    And has anything been mentioned about the reserves? Have any of ours been released or are they still under contract till after we get back to playing?

    Trip where? We’ve been on lockdown

    You’ve  clearly read through the pages to see what’s been happening then to see this. This is a really poor attempt Frank. 

     

    Yeah I read through a few pages to try and get up to date. Was a waste of time as there was just arguments so thought I'd just ask hoping someone would be kind enough to update me but instead I'm getting interrogated, don't know if that's normal for new accounts? 

    As for the trip - it was work related.

    You've mastered the quote and the Like function already. Not bad for a beginner emoji38.png

    Yeah the quote bit was obvious. Well obvious after getting it pointed out to me. As for the like function I was pressing to see what it was and then removed the red thing I put to your posts.

    any more questions officer?

    You replied to me first with a silly picture.
    I take it everyone acts like an immature d*ck on here? 
    Or is it a case if you're new then you're not welcome by certain posters like this guy wasting my time? 
     

    You sound familiar. Have you posted on here before?

    No does that matter? Are new accounts frowned upon? 

    Sorry about them red arrow things. Was just seeing what they were but I've removed them

    Honestly, not really sure what you want, to be honest

    Was just asking for any info on the last few month as I've been away. I've got most of it from online articles the past couple of days but joined here hoping to get more info. Was also asking how to work this properly and what things like FIFY mean. 

    That is all. If no one is willing to help and would rather be silly then that's fine - gives me an idea on whos posts are worth reading and who's not.

    Grand daughter has just pointed out what it means and that you're just trying to be a smart arse. Her words not mine.
    Anyone else with any info? Would be appreciated. 

    Cool story bro.

    You replied to me first with a silly picture.
