TxRover Posted May 24, 2022 Share Posted May 24, 2022 (edited) Hope Dave does well with you. He always was behind someone until his injury, so too often used at RB, where he is NOT suited. Should be a good CB for you in League One, and with play might well develop to Championship quality.

Otis Blue Posted May 24, 2022 Share Posted May 24, 2022 1 hour ago, 19QOS19 said: In other news, a couple of good managerial appointments for us I'd say. I think Ian Murray is an overrated manager but he's clearly done a good job at Airdrie. Him leaving will surely leave them in a weaker place. McPake being named as the new Dunfermline manager is also good news. I think he's a terrible manager so with any luck he'll make an arse of it at the Pars. Two playoff/title competitors hopefully in a weaker position just now than we'd have expected. ^^^ This. Was thinking along the same lines ... Dunfermline - new manager - McPake was either loathed or adored by the Dees on here. Stressful times at EEP which could be good for QOS Airdrie - Murray departing and looks like he'll take a couple of good players with him from Airdrie to Kirkcaldy. Airdrie will need to find a replacement - could be Kevin Thomson from Kelty perhaps? Apart from weakening Airdrie, that would also maybe weaken Kelty too, not sure. Again, could be good for QOS. Kelty - lots of rumours that they'll lose their manager soon - depends if it happens, but would cause some disruption even if temporary. Falkirk - serious contenders obviously, but yet another new management team incoming. I like McGlynn's football but sometimes managers just don't fit well at certain clubs and the politics can be unhelpful. Could be good for the Bairns but could equally take some time to sort itself out. QOS - well of course, lets not forget that we also have a management change that could either work or not work! Tough league to call this I think! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
19QOS19 Posted May 24, 2022 Share Posted May 24, 2022 Aye, this looks a decent signing - hope we see the same Gav as first time around - think he's struggled a bit since leaving us (injuries a part of that?).I'm hoping WG is planning on going with 2 up front. The last time I saw Reilly play was against us and he was up top by himself (no idea if it was intentional or his partner was just nowhere to be seen) but he struggled badly. I don't think he's cut out for that role. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Monkey Tennis Posted May 24, 2022 Share Posted May 24, 2022 Pleased about Reilly. I don't think he's been the player he was with us for a while. I loved him here though and would really like to see him rekindle things, with and for us. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Manwithnoball Posted May 24, 2022 Share Posted May 24, 2022 Reilly definitely an upgrade on last year's strikers. Good to see signings start to happen. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Otis Blue Posted May 24, 2022 Share Posted May 24, 2022 So is that a centre back pairing of Paul McKay and Dave McKay then? Decent strategy that ... can just imagine the usual shouts of encouragement from the Queens faithful along the lines of ... "that's shite McKay" ... and the players looking at each other with genuinely plausible deniability. I like it! 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doonhamer19 Posted May 24, 2022 Share Posted May 24, 2022 (edited) Just realised we're set for a centreback partnership of McKay and McKay. Could be confusing! Edit: Also just realised I've been beaten to this... Edited May 24, 2022 by Doonhamer19 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't expect we'll be seeing the same Reilly as we saw during his last spell, injuries and a lack of a good run of games certainly hampered his career. I wouldn't have taken him last year in the Championship, but he did show some signs of getting his mojo back at Morton so I'm hoping that he'll be a success in League One. Good to see that we are offering 2 year deals too. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Otis Blue Posted May 24, 2022 Share Posted May 24, 2022 Am I right in saying that we brought Paton in from L2 last year (Stranraer) and asked him to make the big jump up to Championship level? Equally, Gavin was reasonably decent with Morton at Championship level. So perhaps these guys will be more likely to shine a level down at L1 - fingers crossed. As others have said if we could add a big (stature) striker to occupy centre backs then that would help Paton/Reilly too. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eta as soon as I posted, I just knew Cameron would be rumoured. Edited May 24, 2022 by Flash 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

qos_75 Posted May 24, 2022 Author Share Posted May 24, 2022 Two reasonably early signings - what sorcery is this? A good bit of business by the manager. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
