All at Palmerston will miss Robin Bryden, the `Standard` photographer, who has spent 45 years covering matches at the park. His final assignment was yesterday`s match against Albion Rovers which Queens won 1-0. We wish Robin all the best for the future and hope you have many happy years of retirement.
Our local sides didn`t fare too well in the first round of the William Hill Scottish Cup yesterday.
St Cuthbert Wanderers did beat Edinburgh University 2-1 with Wigtown holding Huntly to an away draw.
However, Newton Stewart crashed 4-0 away to Civil Service Strollers with Threave Rovers going down 1-0 to Vale of Leithen.
And finally, congratulations to our former goalkeeper Jamie MacDonald (now with Hearts). His wife Roxzannah gave birth to a beautiful baby daughter, Darragh just recently, And both are progressing well.
