Pre Season Friendly at Palmerston Park, Dumfries Season 2004-05

Its over seventeen years since the Pars last came across Queen of the South in competitive matches. Back on 28th August 1990 the Dumfries side knocked the Pars out of the Scottish League Cup by two goals to one at East End Park.  The Pars goal that night scored by current Gretna Manager Davie Irons.

There have been 60 meetings between the clubs with the Fifers having won 28, QOS 21 and 11 have been drawn. Dunfermline won their last league win there but returned for Davie Hay`s second pre season friendly in 2004-05 at drew 1-1.  Only Shields, Wilson, Thomson and Labonte remain at East End from the 15 used that day.

David Bingham is currently on loan to QOS from Gretna.  He is now 37 years of age and his former clubs are St Johnstone, Forfar Athletic, Dunfermline Athletic, Livingston and Inverness Caley Thistle.  Twelve years ago the Pars paid Forfar £100,000 for his services. He played 64 matches as a Par and scored 13 goals.

Referee will be Willie Collum, always to be remembered by Pars fans for his Christmas Saturday handling of the SPL match at home to Caley Thistle last season.  He was in charge of the Challenge Cup tie when Dunfermline defeated Clyde 4-1 earlier this season.  In ten games this season he has shown 38 yellows and four reds.

C`mon Ye Pars!
