By all accounts he has a calf injury. Leighfield was given Thomson's 21 squad number, although he's currently loaned out to Gretna 2008. He'll be covering until Atkinson's back fit before going back to Gretna I'd assume.Quote:

Time the lad moved on and got first team football elsewhere IMO ......
190 Substitute appearances must be a Queen of the South record for a player !
