That old saying Money doesn't grow on trees immediately springs to mind. The building of a new stadium is completely madness unless there is a huge investment in the club which at the moment looks unlikely. The chairman and his directors have worked wonders keeping the club full time and afloat with the development of the Queens Arena but how long this will last is debatable. The Dumfries public have been disappointing in turning out to support the team and this has not on the whole been because of lack of success on the field. Getting rid of Naysmith and the constant slagging of certain players does not help and in fact aggrivates the situation. The main problem is we are thin on the ground for class players as was evident against Dundee United who have several class players on view. We haven't the money to buy class players and we have to rely on on loan players which is usually short term. We must keep our academy going and this is the way ahead. There are undoubtedly tough times ahead with a possibility of going part-time and dare I say it relegation so we must be realistic. We have however a hard core support which includes many volunteers and I remain optimistic. I admire the lads in the Supporters Liaison Committee who are working their socks off to help the club.

I do not wish to comment on the recent revelations on Social Media concerning former empoyees of Queens as hopefully this will blow over.

Come away the Queens
