    I saw his first game against Falkirk, and many more including 2-2 at Ayr in the cup, when he saved a penalty in the dying minutes, to the delight of a huge travelling support. A legend and a gentleman, who would probably been capped for Scotland, if he,d been born Scottish. You have been a credit to Dumfries. Thanks for the memories. Rest in peace Alan. Condolences to the family.

    True gentleman. We will all be proud of Alan Ball and everything he has done for us . Always had time to speak to the fans , especially to a nervous 10 year old at the Locharbriggs Gala ( me) who he made his day . Latterly , I bumped into him at the Barracuda Club when taking my daughter to swimming lessons . Conversation was always Queens of course. A sad day , Alan Ball is the best known player who has and who ever will play for Queens . Legend doesn't do him justice.

    What about a minute of applause for Alan Ball at the next home game or one that suits ?
