Queen's Park Football Club 1st Team Squad 2008/2009
Goalkeepers
Alex Cowie
Alex Cowie
After coming through the Hampden youth ranks, Zander had to wait a long time to get his chance in the first team. Finally made the No.1 jersey his own last season, and will be desperate to keep his place this time around.
Mark Cairns
David Crawford
Was an absolute hero with the Queen's fans during the promotion season when he had an incredible habit of saving penalties. Moved on to Dumbarton last term, but didn't have a happy time and has now returned to Hampden. His arrival certainly ensures fiierce competition for the keeper's jersey.
Defenders
Damiano Agostini
Damiano Agostini
One of the Queen's Park quiet heroes. "Big D" has had to overcome a string of injuries to earn his spot in the defence. At his best, he's an absolute rock at the heart of the back four, and is always a contender for fans' awards at the end of the season. 
molloy
Shaun Molloy
Signed from Dundee United in 2004, hopes were high that Shaun would make a real impact with his raiding runs down the left. A bad run of injuries, and the arrival of Mick Dunlop, meant he hasn't yet fulfilled all his potential. He'll be looking to impress now that Mick has moved on.
Richard Sinclair
Richard Sinclair
Club Captain, and a veteran of our last Division 2 campaign in 2000-01. An integral part of the Spiders' defence, despite an unhappy knack of picking up painful injuries. Yet another example of the club's successful youth policy, having come through the Hampden ranks, picking up international honours at schoolboy level.
Martin Ure
Young wing back signed from Cumnock Juniors in the last week of last term's pre-season. Opportunities for action were limited by the consistency of Paul Paton, but with his departure to Thistle, Martin will be looking to grab his chance. Once on the books at Rangers, and one to watch.
Steve Reilly
Steven Reilly
An instant hit on arrival at Hampden in 2003 because of his tough tackling and ability from the penalty spot. Steve has had a hideous time with injuries over the past couple of terms, and is still working his way back from a serious knee problem. Given a bit of luck to keep him away from the treatment table, Steve could be a key player this time around.
Andy Boslem
Skippered the Hamden XI in their bid for Scottish Amateur Cup glory. Strong young defender who has made a few first team appearances, and will be looking for more.
brough
Jamie Brough
Came through the youth ranks and made an immediate impact when called in for first team action. Along with Andy Boslem, Jamie will provide good competition for the centre-back positions.
henry
Jack Henry
Key part of the 19s squad last term, now gets the chance to show what he can do at a higher level. Could provide stiff opposition for one of the wing-back slots.
Barry Douglas
Another Hampden youngster looking to graduate from QP Youth into the first team. Forceful runs were an exciting part of the Hams' glory bid, as were his excellent set-piece deliveries with the left peg.
Midfielders
quinn
Tony Quinn
The term utility man certainly applies to Quinno. Brought in by John McCormack in 2001, Tony played both in defence and midfield. His bravery saw him overcome two leg breaks. And when we were short of forward options last term, Gardner Speirs pushed Tony up front, with some spectacular results. A real physical presence, whose experience will be vital this time round ... no matter where he's asked to play.
cairney
Paul Cairney
Paul established himself as a regular during the latter half of the 06/07 season with some very impressive performances in the midfield. His displays have belied his youth and his drive and perpetual motion have earned him a host of admirers. Signed for Partick Thistle, but loan deal keeps him at Hampden until at least January.
neill
John Neill
Gardner Speirs' first signing, and one the boss was delighted to keep hold of for another season. The ex-Hearts youngster has the potential to become a vital cog in the Queen's midfield.
waters
David Waters
Another Hampden youngster who has had to wait for his chance. Busy and determined, he'll be looking to make the breakthrough this season
dunlop
Ross Dunlop
Ross came into his own last term with the 19s, and will be looking to get his name in the first-team frame this time around. Family name is well known to QP fans, and Ross will be determined to make his own stamp.
harkins
Paul Harkins
Just signed on at Hampden after impressing during pre-season. Paul was at Neilston Juniors last season. Has figured well in the early season games.
holms
Ryan Holms
Left-sided midfielder was a stand-out during Queen's pre-season. He signs up at Hampden from Knightswood Juveniles.
mcgrogna
Anthony McGrogan
The 27-year-old joined the Hampden ranks just before the start of the new season. He caught the eye of boss Gardner Speirs when he played against Queen's during our run to last season's Scottish Amateur Cup Final.
montgomerie
Ray Montgomerie
Another of the crop of youngsters trying to make the step-up from the Queen's youth ranks. His keen eye for goal could see him getting the opprtunity this season.
Forwards
dunn
Robert Dunn
Another player who has struggled with injuries at Hampden. Signed from Stirling Albion in August 2006, he's shown glimpses of real class. He could be a big part of the Queen's set-up this year, with the experience of playing for six senior clubs. Everybody at Hampden will be hoping that experience in the 2nd division will prove a big asset to Queen's this term.
ronald
Paul Ronald
A man of many clubs, Paul’s experience and enthusiasm has proved an invaluable asset to the Spiders. Now "in the autumn of his career", Paul is hoping for one more season to help the new QP youngsters bed in.
mcgrady
Stuart McGrady
Arrived along with Martin Ure from Cumnock. Pacy frontman, Stuart was a standout in the juniors, and also impressed during a spell at Ayr United. He will be a key part of our search for goals this time around.
coakley
Adam Coakley
New recruit to the Hampden ranks. The 20-year-old striker looked to be set for great things at Motherwell. But didn't have the best of fortune and had a few loan spells after signing on at Morton. He'll be desperate to re-establish his striking credentials with Queen's.
murrayd
David Murray
Nineteen-year-old striker was with St Mirren last term after moving to Love Street from the Celtic Youth ranks. Another who impressed the boss during Queen's pre-season.
