SaveOurSouth

This is the OFFICIAL twitter page for the 'Save Our South' campaign. Queen of the South need your help.

[SaveOurSouth @SaveOurSouth]

Turning up on Saturday for the home game v Partick Thistle would be a help to finances AND team. 3pm kick-off as always. #saveoursouth

[SaveOurSouth @SaveOurSouth]

Still more to be done though. Visit www.qosfc.com and www.saveoursouth.co.uk to find out how you can donate/help the club.

[SaveOurSouth @SaveOurSouth]

Today's Standard reports that £37,000 has been raised for the club in just two weeks. A fantastic figure! Well done everyone. #saveoursouth

[SaveOurSouth @SaveOurSouth]

Almost £6,000 raised by #saveoursouth so far! A great start and will add to £5k donation from QOS Fan Club and £15k from anonymous donor.

[SaveOurSouth @SaveOurSouth]

All in all, a positive beginning and now it's all about developing some of the ideas and attracting fans to home matches. #saveoursouth

[SaveOurSouth @SaveOurSouth]

A number of good ideas to try and raise funds were given from the floor and noted down.

[SaveOurSouth @SaveOurSouth]

Ross: "The most important thing is to try and get some cash-flow into the club in the short-term."

[SaveOurSouth @SaveOurSouth]

Ross C: "I'd like to thank everyone who has come along tonight. It's great to see so many fans here."

[SaveOurSouth @SaveOurSouth]

Big Jim then told the rally about the job he does in connection with the club and how much Queens means to him.

[SaveOurSouth @SaveOurSouth]

Mr Brown: "The generosity that has been shown is tremendous and I think we will hit the £50,000 target."

[SaveOurSouth @SaveOurSouth]

Brown: "Only the board and those associated with the club will be able to tell us if this is a short-term problem or something more serious"

[SaveOurSouth @SaveOurSouth]

Mr Brown: "What we need now is a little bit of that support to come out and help the club at this difficult time."

[SaveOurSouth @SaveOurSouth]

Mr Brown: "People were celebrating with the club."

[SaveOurSouth @SaveOurSouth]

Reflecting on our famous cup run, he added: "What you saw in April/May 2008 in the town speaks volumes and was absolutely fantastic."

[SaveOurSouth @SaveOurSouth]

Mr Brown opened it up and said: "I want to thank Ross for everything he and everyone else has done to pull this together."

[SaveOurSouth @SaveOurSouth]

Local MP Russell Brown, Queens fan Ross Corbett, West Sound FM DJ Bruce McKenzie and ex-QOS captain Jim Thomson were at top table.
