    As mentioned in an earlier post, he should be utilising Ross Fergusson up front, - the lad is 6 foot two, very strong and fast, - is that not what we're needing?

    I've heard he had a holiday booked and this upset Naysmith, - but the lad might not have known he was being kept on by Queens!

    I accept that discipline is needed, but I'd have thought that we need to look at the bigger picture?

    From what I seen of Fergusson last season he seemed decent enough.

    I heard that Naysmith heavily criticised the current Development League system at the last SLO meeting - perhaps
    someone who was in attendance can confirm this.

    This wouldn't surprise me but the fact that the squad won the league must have some merit.

    Cannon fodder small clubs, bit disrespectful that is it not, can't remember the first team hammering East Kilbride the other week.

    Out of interest what size of club do you think Nithsdale Wanderers are? Lol.
