League Match 22: Queens v Brechin

[Spikefaethesouth]

Onto the game. After the dissapointent of the cup result, I started feeling a bit more enthused about everything Qos . The team worked their socks off with no reward and we couldnt have asked any more from them, bar the elusive goal obviously . Looking forward to seeing if Ferguson can score again. A big strong boy, he could be the man to hold the ball further up the park for us and be good foil for Dobbie. Great to see Fordyce back as well. Let's get the 3 points and see where we are sitting come Saturday night.

Good positive post JR as there were quite a few plus points to take away from the Thistle game. Fordyce returning was certainly one although he looked far from match fit as though he had been rushed back but hopefully a further week of training will have him sharp for the Brechin game. Ferguson was a revelation and his performance will have done him wonders but hopefully will have competition from a fit again Lyle if he has recovered physically as well as mentally. We will need a fully focused Del Boy for the remainder of the season. Carmichael must also be close to a return and with Marshall and Jacobs also due back mid
to late February, with a bit of luck, this will be a real boost to the squad. Everything to play for the remainder of the season. Mon the South.

Totally agree with all posts guys, - but weather we like it or not (pun very much intended) rain does put off a lot of people. However, this morning's forecast (for Saturday) now suggests that the rain will be gone by late morning and it will be mild - so that's a good thing.

Now the hard facts: - we are playing Brechin (who are not the most appealing of sides and will bring 19 - 25 supporters) and Queens have just been knocked out of the main cup competition, - so the perception (weather, - or rather whether we like it or not) amongst the 'potential paying punters' is that there's not a lot to play for this season and I expect the crowd to be around 1275 - 1325 tomorrow.

To change that perception amongst the ppp's the club needs to start putting together some high energy performances and scoring goals to get folk excited and thinking that Queens have a realistic chance of the play offs. I'm afraid you cannot criticise ppp's until the offer on the table is something more exciting than just cold ham and salad.

Once we get the team performing above the punters expectations, plus some more exciting teams on the menu then we will bring in a good few extra home supporters.
