Episode 138 - At Least The Sun's Out
David, Enzo and Calum do their best to get a match review out of the 1-0 defeat to Arbroath last Saturday, which isn't easy given the lack of on-field action and Enzo's lack of memory.

Episode 134 - Bouncebackability
David, Enzo and Gregor are back this week to look at another couple of games that once again had us feeling all sorts of emotions, from the horror of an 8-0 defeat to Rangers kicking us out the Scottish Cup, to a massive three points away from home against Ross County who everyone now agrees are actual relegation rivals this season. There's not too much else to discuss other than the key points from these games before turning our attention to this Saturday as we get ready to take on Greenock Morton.

Episode 133 - Sometimes Maybe Good, Sometimes Maybe... Less Good
Calum, David, and Enzo are back with you this week as the games come thick and fast for Queen's Park.

136
Episode 132 - A Glimmer Of Hope
David and Enzo are back to kickstart 2026 after a delayed start thanks to multiple weather delays, and the time off even had us confused at what games we need to cover!

We round off the month for all associated QP teams before looking ahead to Arbroath at home this coming Saturday.

There's the usual look around the league before the QP Quiz Of The Year which of course had to go slightly wrong for David given the time of night and alcohol consumed! The episode ends with a look ahead to our first game of 2026, a trip to the coast to take on Ayr United.
-
134
Episode 130 - Points Dropped (Again)
For the first time in a few weeks Calum, David, and Enzo are back together to discuss what's been going on at Queen's Park. Was it three points dropped (hint, yes it was) as we visited Morton then welcome Dunfermline to Cappielow, or one gained?

David, Enzo and Calum try to make sense of two dismal defeats to Airdrie and Livingston, digest the news that Queen's Park is about to undergo a massive on & off field change yet again, and somehow look ahead to the first of four must-win games to end the season with Dunfermline at home on Saturday.
-
114
Episode 111 - That Went Well
It's difficult to find the words to describe losing a national cup final 5-0, but David, Enzo and Calum do their best to find them, although the feeling is that what was served up on the park was an extension of the club off the park at this moment in time, and we're beginning to run out of patience. The only positives from the day itself were nothing to do with the actual squad, we touch on them before a rather pessimistic preview of an unbelievably massive game against Airdrie on Wednesday and a rematch with Livingston on Saturday.
-
113
Episode 110 - Cup Final...Fever?
David, Enzo and Calum dissect another dismal display as we fall 2-1 to Morton and edge ever closer to an end of season relegation battle.We try to muster up something resembling positivity as we look ahead to the Trust Trophy final vs Livingston on Sunday, answering the big questions like whether it's correct to pre-emptively take Monday off work or not ahead of the game.Enjoy!
