Apparently we've got a couple of supporters buses coming down for this so the away crowd should break into triple figures... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Caven's is the best bet for good food and good beer, it is more of an eating place than a pub though and as SD says won't be showing the football. There is the Robert the Bruce Wetherspoons on the same street where you'll get cheap and cheerful food and drink but again no football. There are 4 pubs in Market Square just across the river from those two which will all likely show the football as they are more traditional style pubs. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Caul Back Posted November 28, 2017 Share Posted November 28, 2017 What is up with Naysmith, he gets Kane on loan, and never seems to want to play him in a full 90 minutes, I see DYkes was in a again how did he do? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NOTS Posted November 28, 2017 Share Posted November 28, 2017 Dykes was utter rubbish. Kept getting knocked off the ball too easily. -1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alan grey Posted November 30, 2017 Share Posted November 30, 2017 There is a 72 inch TV in caverns which does show football. You have to get a table close to the bar area to catch the football though. It's a great pub for food and beer and fantastic service. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gingerbreadman Posted November 30, 2017 Share Posted November 30, 2017 On 16/11/2017 at 12:04, Skyline Drifter said: We'll be in the 'Advanced Youth' Level one below the 'Performance Level' Dundee, Queen's Park and Morton are at. No idea why the SFA have missed that level off their press release. As MT says, the criteria for Project Brave are way, way out of our reach. Far bigger clubs than us have conceded it's not realistic. We were on the bottom level of the Club Academy ladder too. It doesn't stop us actually producing the odd decent player. It's all a bit up in the air at the moment until we see how it's all going to work but I don't think anything will fundamentally change for us. As far as I know we'll be running the same three age level squads we currently do and our youth funding levels are guaranteed for the next few years. Criteria not out of reach if the board were ambitious in terms of youth development and if they had someone of suitable knowledge and drive to move it forward. Current set up doesn’t have a full time member of staff in place to drive it forward like most clubs do. Most youth / community set ups now have charitable status. Queens aren’t serious enough about either if you compare to other clubs. Only people at queens paid full time in community / youth are Eddie warwick and Danny Armstrong. Neither have experience or knowledge to drive this forward like other clubs do. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Northfield 53 Posted December 1, 2017 Share Posted December 1, 2017 What is the timescale on when Dan Carmichael will be fit.What is his injury . Fordyce is going to be a big miss probable our best defender think he will be out for a few weeks. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NOTS Posted December 1, 2017 Share Posted December 1, 2017 I presume it is the same groin injury that Carmichael picked up at Hibernian but the club are not saying how long he will be out for. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NOTS Posted December 1, 2017 Share Posted December 1, 2017 Not heard that tbh. He's been out far too long for a hamstring. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nithsdale Wanderer Posted December 2, 2017 Share Posted December 2, 2017 This Manager is not up to the job and - if he persists with his chosen methods - will not deliver top 4 which I guess is his remit. The sooner he goes the better let's not wait until he formally fails. He has failed already by serving up unattractive so-called football week after week on a regular basis which is driving people away. We have had 3 chances to break in to that top 4 this week and have taken none of them. 2 points and 2 goals with 2 home games in there is hugely disappointing but not at all surprising. I seem to remember we had a similar opportunity last season and blew that as well. He is unable to get the best out of the players at his disposal. I have said many times before everything about him is negative and I believe that influences the players in the same way. Well and truly gone are the good old days of seeing off Hibs, Rangers and Falkirk in the same week ! We have players who are proven goalscorers yet we are not scoring freely because he does not set up to create chances. I have still to work out exactly why James Fowler was binned but I suspect it was because of moans and groans like this and potentially falling attendances over the style of football on offer. Fowler though was still better than the present incumbent and tried to play football the right way even when faced with the adversity of losing more than half of his best players and his repalcements being beset with injury. So carry on as you are Mr. Naysmith and you will end up going the same way - hopefully sooner rather than later - if the Board are consistent in their approach and criteria for success. I guess I can take the short term pain if it leads to longer term gain. Something that really sums him up - Aidan Smith scored again for Annan today, a young player already with Championship experience and who has scored goals at that level and who has pace to burn which would complement Lyle and Dobbie and benefit the team as a whole yet he would rather persevere with the likes of Dykes and Fergusson who are more of a physical presence yet cannot finish. Fergusson should have been sent at the start of the season and Smith retained. Something he now seems to have realised. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
