Francesc Fabregas Posted January 8, 2021 Share Posted January 8, 2021 You have to say fair play to Queen of the South, they were probably the worst team in the country this season, pound for pound, but they've been very impressive in recent weeks, from the win over Raith Rovers onward. I bought a stream for that match expecting to have a big laugh at their performance but they were organised and committed and deserved their victory. They looked good against Ayr United and they've been streets ahead of Queen's Park tonight, the second half especially. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Slipmat Posted January 8, 2021 Share Posted January 8, 2021 "possibly their only chance to play at the national stadium" Except we signed McGrory from Queens Park. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

craigkillie Posted January 8, 2021 Share Posted January 8, 2021 I doubt playing at Hampden will be a once in a lifetime opportunity or whatever it was described as for Calvin McGrory, given that he literally played for Queen's Park before signing for Queens. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spring Onion Posted January 8, 2021 Share Posted January 8, 2021 How many before it's classed a rout? Last few weeks have been very pleasing. Looks like a league and cup double this year then. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
parsforlife Posted January 8, 2021 Share Posted January 8, 2021 This is nothing more than albeit poor championship side taking apart league 2 opponents. Queen’s Park can sell the story as much as they like, but media attention doesn’t actually make you good at football. They should manage to buy their way out of league 2 but they’ll need to make huge strides to do anything other than avoid relegation in league 1. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Knowing that involves either knowledge of the lower leagues or doing some actual research. Hardly BBC's strong points.

They're better than Dumbarton, Peterhead, Clyde and Forfar, despite being hamstrung by a "frustrated" dumpling of a manager. -1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

19QOS19 Posted January 8, 2021 Author Share Posted January 8, 2021 Well our most comfortable game this season was against Queens Park in the League Cup. But they had players out and it was a meaningless game. With a full squad and a big tie I expected a tougher test. I never expected it to be an easier game than the first one [emoji38] 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

the_bully_wee Posted January 8, 2021 Share Posted January 8, 2021 Queen's Park really are a diabolically poor full-time outfit. The uncertainty Covid brought about offered them a wonderful opportunity to build the core of a squad which could take them to and then establish them in the middle of the Championship, but it seems that Raymond's massive hard-on for certain players and reputation for being a complete and utter fraud has rendered that a pipe dream. The vast majority of this squad consists of players who've been granted a reprieve from part-time football only by Queen's abandonment of their entire history, and it shows in their hapless performances. Hopefully their next managerial appointment is as clown-car as this one, but I suspect the Lord might dig deeper into his pockets when Raymond gets the bullet. QotS, on the other hand, looked a competent outfit there; fair play to them for turning around what looked like an utterly doomed situation just a few weeks ago. I fulsomely agree with the praise ofConnor Shields and in young Fitzpatrick you've a player with plenty of talent who will only get better the more he plays. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Distant Doonhamer Posted January 8, 2021 Share Posted January 8, 2021 Comfortable in the 2nd half. Other than Quitongo’s great effort I thought Queens Park were high on effort and low on quality. Edit to add that’s not to say we’re a great team. We’re not. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LeodhasXD Posted January 8, 2021 Share Posted January 8, 2021 Why does McFadden snicker about that 'long ball'? I can see it's a long ball. It's also putting QP under all sorts of pressure. Is there a point to be made about the style of play? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
