Two or more clubs merging into one makes that a new club, there would be new Constitution, new application to join the relevant Associations, etc. Quite a few clubs probably started with mergers of other clubs, Ayr Utd as already mentioned, QoS as well in 1919, not the date of the original clubs' founding. Of course the original clubs are still remembered but their history ended when the new club was formed. Yep, Queen of the South formed in 1919 with the merger of three local clubs: Dumfries Amateurs, the 5th King's Own Scottish Borderers and the Arrol-Johnston works side (car manufacturer). So the history of the Queen of the South club starts from 1919 and not before. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheScarf Posted June 24 Share Posted June 24 Out of the young lads I've only ever seen Bray, Thompson and Cairns play, which was in their fleeting appearances for the first team. Bray - Looks a handful, quick and direct. Didn't get much game time at Elgin. Thompson - Looked promising before his first loan away from the club to Clach, came back and looked like he'd never played football in his life. He gave a WOAT performance in October in the loss to Nairn in the NoS Cup, laughably bad, although he was far from the only one that night. Loaned to Spartans and barely played. Cairns - Scored a last minute equaliser in 22/23 at home to Morton, looked promising, a bit of a unit, and a bit of the mold of Shane Sutherland about him IMO seemed to get some games at BoD and scored a few goals. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Buzz Killington Posted June 24 Share Posted June 24 12 hours ago, Stephen Malkmus said: The only difference between Duncan Ferguson's The Caley and Steve Clarke's The Caledonia is that Billy Mckay isn't randomly wandering around the midfield for the latter. Sad. Clarke didn't sub a centre back for another centre back on 90 mins. Other than these two things it was a carbon copy of The Caley at home under Big Dunc. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nicholson had a couple of decent performances at left back before injury too. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He did, I class him as a first team player however. He's made a few more appearances, including starting games, than than the ones mentioned and is a year or two older. Every time he seemed to play he would either score or provide an assist. He's back fully running now so I don't think ball work and back into the squad is too far away. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hopefully he plays with the same confidence he did prior to his injury as he was a real asset for us in his half season at Borough Briggs. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's a good athlete, strong and quick and provides a decent threat down the left IMO. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know right & the fact that our fans have to drive out to Fort George like Matt O' Shea flying out to Romania to make a documentary about Andrew Tate is nuts. He should make a vice documentary about Scot Gardiner talks just as much shite. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
