Friendly defeat for Spiders

Winners already
The 2010-2011 season has still to begin in earnest, but Queen's have already notched up a major victory. For the second year in succession, we have been successful in securing funding under the Da Vinci Initiative to take a party of our youth players and coaching staff to a winter training camp. In January it was the Algarve, next January it will be Turkey, and the Adora resort camp at Antalya. It's a big feather in the club's cap, and another big boost for our youth development system. Last season, a number of the 17s returned from the Algarve and played a major part in that squad securing a league and cup double, while Paul Gallacher returned to claim a starting spot in the first team as it began its run to the play-offs. Another five of the youngsters who were on the trip have now been given first team contracts at Queen's Park. More details of the camp and the players heading off on the trip will follow.Forward move
Gardner Speirs has added another forward to the squad for next season with the signing of Craig Smith from Ashfield. The 24-year-old can play wide or through the middle, and his arrival certainly adds to the competition for places in the starting line-up.Book up for summer fun
Bookings are now being taken for the ever popular summer holiday camps being run by Queen's at Lesser Hampden and Holyrood. Follow the link below for more details.»Summer Camp
We're getting there
As the new season looms ever closer, Gardner Speirs outlines the progress being made with the squad. And he tells Martin Kelly that things are taking shape quite nicely with another new addition, and a couple more players in his sights.»Squad latest
A striking addition
The squad continues to grow with the latest addition being striker Jamie Longworth. Jamie, a prolific goalscorer in the junior ranks, joins Davie Anderson in making the switch from Kilbirnie Ladeside to Hampden. Also putting pen to paper this week was club skipper Richard Sinclair, who signed on after returning from holiday. As those two came in, Barry Douglas made his long-expected move. The talented youngster has signed for Dundee United - and everybody at Hampden wishes him well as he makes the step up to the Premier League.Back in business
The build-up has begun in earnest to the new season, with the fixtures issued and the players now back in training. As they returned, another new face was added to the squad when the signing of Kilbirnie Ladeside midfielder Davie Anderson was completed. Although his move to Hampden has been an "open secret" for some weeks, the paperwork was only completed on Friday, June 18. Along with Davie, the only other name to be added to next season's squad is young Michael O'Hara who steps up from the 19s - but more signings are likely within the next few days as players return to training. On the departures front, while Barry Douglas is moving on, he has still to decide on his final option - with Dundee United and Watford the likeliest candidates.What a start
Queen's face a tough start in their bid to get the promotion campaign off to a flyer. The fixtures show that after our stern cup tests against Livi and Inverness Caley, we will travel to Montrose for our first league fixture on August 7. Our first home game in the league comes the following Saturday ... against CLYDE. Other fixtures that stand out include a Boxing Day trip to Arbroath, while our New Year Derby this year sees us travel to Cliftonhill on Sunday, January 2.
