    Average attendance 2016/17

    Queens saw a drop in their average attendance this season which isn't surprising considering we didn't have the two huge away supports from Rangers this time around

    Here's the last six years crowd averages >

    2011/12 - 1,550 ( 1266 home & 284 away )

    2012/13 - 1,658 ( 1605 home & 53 away )

    2013/14 - 1,723 ( 1544 home & 170 away )

    2014/15 - 2,796 ( 2006 home & 790 away )

    2015/16 - 2,115 ( 1575 home & 540 away )

    2016/17 - 1,857 ( 1472 home & 385 away )

    Biggest home league crowd - 3,703 v Hibs Saturday September 24th
    Smallest home league crowd - 1,147 v St Mirren Tuesday December 6th

    Biggest away league support - 1,410 , Hibs
    Smallest away league support - 42 , Dumbarton

    Not surprised to see Dumbarton in last place but surprised to see Queens behind Ayr United in 2nd last place.

    Raith/Dunfermline and Falkirk are derbies as is Morton /St Mirren, might explain some of the reasons why we're behind. Plus a 12 game winless streak while we were awful to watch. And we are that bit further away for away fans. Ayr would seem to have an even more masochistic support than we do....

    That's something we sadly miss down here , a good old fashioned derby match that brings in big crowds . We've been extremely lucky in recent seasons with Hearts , Rangers and Hibs in the same league . Their away support is going to be badly missed now they're all back in the premiership. It's interesting though that despite the season we had our own home suppport didn't dwindle away to much . Approximately 100 fans less per week from the previous season

    Massive steps though must be made now and the Summer months to encourage more fans back to Palmerston , in particular the youngsters . Do Queens have any plans in the pipeline ?

    I heard there are plans for a singing section in the Portland Drive terracing.

    This was tried before in the East Stand nearest the Portland Road terracing a few years ago and failed for some reason.

    This would surely be better in the terracing with Drummer Boy leading the orchestra.

    Heard Queens are thinking about letting u12's in for free next season . If not the junior blue season ticket at £18 is a bargain and I'd urge every adult on here to buy their kids or grandkids one
