Can anyone name all these Queens players?
I only know Bobby Black (front centre) and I think Jim Kerr is in the back row.

Defo a reserve team and i am sure that's Irving Gracie in goals. Probably a Southern Counties Cup final as it looks like Johnny Wallace is the manager / trainer on the left.
Thanks. Gracie's granddaughter posted the photo to the Old Dumfries page on Facebook.Quote:

late 70s I would guess - the late Jim Kerr was 18 in 1960 for instance.
Would Ian Black know most of the players?Quote:

Replace Irving with Thomson (my error). Apart from Kerr and Black who of course went on to be legendary Doonhamers - Dunese, Dunlop and Pinkerton all played a few games in the first eleven.
