Derek Lyle testimonial match

[ALBERTZ_11]

Looking forward to this game with two great squads announced.

Don't know many fans who've already bought tickets so it's looking like a lot will purchase on the day and Del will get a half decent crowd

[ALBERTZ_11]

I got my tickets at the last home match of the season.

[Spikefaethesouth]

I am looking forward to this game as a bit of fun as well as a thank you to Del Lyle for his many years of service to the club over a number of periods, three in total I think. Also at this time of year in the absence of league fixtures I do miss my football and this will act as a fix to see me over until the season begins anew.

Is the Alex Neil in the Queens squad the old Hamilton and Norwich manager ?

[ALBERTZ_11]

That was my thinking with him being Lyle's manager when he was at Hamilton.

[QOS King]

Pretty sure it will be him as they were at Hamilton together as players for a few years but don't think Lyle was there when Neil took over as manager as I think when he took over as manager Lyle was back at Queens.

Really looking forward to seeing the old players (Bowey, McKenna, O'Connor & more) tomorrow in what should be a entertaining match.

Even a few Rangers players have played for Queens.
Andy Goram - won the Challenge Cup with Queens in 2002
Marvin Andrews - Remember a away match agaist Morton possibly his first match for us when the fans was singing for him to wave which he did
Jordan McMillan - Liked him when he was on loan at us
Billy Dodds - Never played but was coach when Gordon Chisholm was manager

I already have my ticket and even a badge and will get a programme tomorrow to join with my other testimonial stuff from Burns & Thomson but sadly not Aiken even though i was at that match I am pretty sure no programme were made for that match.

[ALBERTZ_11]

More than likely played with Alex Neil at Accies.
