Let’s hope there hasn’t been anymore businessmen or potential sponsors managed to get in and watch our beloved Queens, because I have a horrible feeling this might be the tip of the iceberg. Saying that if you look on the queens mad site it’s as if nothing happened.... Wonder where Jardie and co are hiding during this disaster

If I we’re them I’d be seriously considering disbanding the SLO all together.
They have worked so hard to help the club in many ways yet are treated appalling and us, the fans, are treated with contempt.
This could be a pivotal moment for the club.100% a lot of fans felt the club let them down years ago over the Rangers vote.... few long standing fans even boycotted the games!!!! A few have game back and have even started the bonus ball for Queens during this how must these people few.
this for me is on a whole different level, the response from the club was like a slap in the face to the common person
What makes it worse for me is that so many people have tried to follow guidance during this pandemic some not being able to see families or even worse go to funerals etc but who ever thinks it’s fine to invite someone (makes no difference if he bought 5 ST ) to a game is disgusting, never want to get involved for tit for tat but it does make you wonder if big JT queens legend was harshly delt with as well

The Club could be fined for a breach of the law, I doubt if he could be fined as an individual. Again any action by the SPFL would be against the Club.
Course he could!!! As chairman he accepts a lot of responsibilities, financial, health and safety etc etc he loves the limelight let’s see if he will stand tall and take the blame

Alternatively, if the club is fined, the Chairman could be liable to the club for breach of directors duties (if, indeed, it was the Chairman who invited him in. I still haven't seen where that was confirmed). The club would then have to bring that claim, acting through its other two directors. If it refused to bring the claim, any of the shareholders could bring a derivative claim, acting in their own name but with any damages paid to the club. I wonder how the trust - recently denied its seat on the board - would feel about that prospect.
Such a shame for the common person... so many people have worked hard to try and support queens anyway they can this year, seen a few tweets from the SLO’s saying they are disgusted etc. Must make there positions along with the tanner fund etc Untenable under current board.

Yes, but you need notice to call an EGM. Would be a tad tricky if the SPFL contacted the club to ask WTF is going on, only to be told that nobody can answer as all the directors have resigned and there will be an EGM in a few weeks. Anyhow, it's academic in the real world. Billy H will be around to face the music even if the other two directors decide that they have had enough.
You do realise the fine the Queens chairman could face if he is found to have broken the Covid laws in tier 4?? He won’t give a dam about the SPFL not being able to get anyone at Palmerston

Does anyone know who the Queens Covid-19 officer is??? During these strange times all attendees At the matches have to be recorded and That information sent through to the SFA. I only hope the Galloway’s X5 Names where on that list

There is no administrative region called The Borders, it proper name is The Scottish Borders. Referring to Dumfries as a Border town has nothing to do with being associated with or being contained within the region properly called The Scottish Borders. Carlisle for example calls itself The Border City on city limit signs (or used to the last time I was there) yet is not in The Scottish Borders. To be quite honest, Dumfries being referred to as being in the Borders doesn't bother me in the slightest, it's probably historically and geographically correct, I can differentiate between being a Border town from being in The Scottish Borders. Travel brochures often refer to places in Dumfries and Galloway as being in the borders, even places further from the Border than Dumfries is, that's a general, maybe lazy, term that can be applied to anywhere from Eyemouth to Stranraer.
If you look at The area of the new South of Scotland Enterprise Covers you can clearly see the DG and Borders are one

This can only go one way.....
There are 3 directors, Hewitson, Paterson And Blount if all 3 Or who ever knew that GG was going to be there With his family during the Covid-19 pandemic then they all need to resign tonight.
Imagine walking into either one of these businessmen place of work Pharmacy, accountants or building firms With your family and saying it’s cool I we will sit in the corner and create a bubble.
Also how many of these men have taken the Furlough money, building grants and looked for help from the agency’s in Dumfries

Never seen the announcement from the FM about being able to take family Members to football matches and create bubbles.......Hewitson quick enough to take the 500k from the government Wonder who will foot the 10k bill from the police for breaking lockdown rules.

Good to partially get the monkey off the back with a win, I'll be happier with one in the league though. We still looked dodgy at the back at times though were never in real danger after going ahead. I thought that was Nortey's worst defensive performance for us tonight but he looks like he has an idea what to do going forward. Buchanan's blame game is going to really infuriate me the longer the season goes on. At 2-1 up we played the ball around as well as we have all season, it begs the question why we treat the ball like a hot potato at 0-0. I've no issue with a slow build up, even if we are behind for that matter. What boils me is the hoofing it aimlessly forward. When we took the lead we showed we are capable of keeping the ball. Do that more often please. A couple of cracking finishes from Joseph and Maxwell (again). As comfortable a win as you're likely to see though which is a good thing and something I doubt we'll see often from us this season sadly.
Biggest negative? No subs used. This maybe annoyed me far more than it should have but at 3-1 I can't believe (I can) AJ never flung on 2 or 3 of the young lads. The game was meaningless even if QP somehow pulled it back. We were comfortable, give the young boys a run out in a game they could afford to make a mistake. If he isn't putting them on in a game like this I don't see what reason they serve being there.3-1 no subs used why have a local striker from Dumfries if you ain’t going to use him??? Saying that I see queens loaned a boy to Dalbeattie last week who got 10 mins game maybe these boys are all there to make the squad up and ensure hewitson gets the SFA funding

My mate told me at the start of the season Queens would be lucky to get 10 points!!!! I thought he had been smoking the funny fags but my god this is looking likely with this management team... Also I take it Goss ain’t going to get a chance how many mins is that now? Give the local lad a chance he can’t do any worse than what’s on show

He joined the reserves in January, after which we played 5 games before lockdown. He wasn't eligible for selection for the 1st team last season.
I've no idea if he is capable of making the step up to the SPFL or not but I don't think two sub appearances, one of 8 mins on Saturday against a Premiership side, and 18 mins tonight are the proof of it. Nor do I think the manager using him off the bench in two out of three opportunities is an indication the manager has decided he doesn't rate him. He should have won the game for us tonight to be fair to him. It's a bad miss but he was there to miss it.
Totally agree!! My only concern is the fact he has had 26mins in 270 mins available and that miss was as bad as u will see in Scottish football.
anyway I love the fact we are looking at local people

Goss has only made, what?, 2 sub appearances in this group and your saying already that the Manager doesn't rate him. It's a bit early to be writing anybody off surely. He's hardly going to be first choice striker anyway but will be a useful squad player I'd imagine. He had two good chances tonight, the second he should certainly have done better with, but I doubt if the Manager will write him off just because of that.
Sorry didn’t he play last season with the reserves?? Think the boy probably has his level in the south... hope I am wrong

Again more positive about than negative. Disappointing not to win, but we made five changes and 2/3 were young boys. Folk can say what they want about ten men but when they have the quality they do coming off the bench it’s just as hard to break them down. Ferguson had a few cracking saves but so did their keeper and Goss has to score near end.
Ferguson looks an excellent signing, Nortei started off slowly but once he got to grips with it he done absolutely fine actually thought everytime he wanted to break forward Robinson was in the way. Like said above Buchanan and ayo look to be building a good partnership, and Maxwell is going to have a very decent career.
Midfield I thought Rhys mccabe was good, when he got on ball and generally dictated our play were the times we looked to do anything, he had 10/15 mins where he fell out of it and we seemed to as well, great deliveries as well. Mcgrory got stronger as game went on, built like a stick but can ping a pass and didn’t hide. Joseph done okay as did Fitzpatrick. Robinson poor for me though, just didn’t get involved.
Shields busy upfront again, but I think I prefer his threat from right hand side. Goss has to score right at the deathHorrible to say but what a miss from Goss... honestly thought he could do a job for queens but after these 3 games it looks like the manager doesn’t rate him
