Queen's Park had a mixed week of results across their senior and youth teams, with a win for the under-19s and a narrow defeat in the Scottish Championship. The Spiders also featured in the BBC's weekend SPFL action round-up, as the club sits eighth in the table with four points from five games.
Queen's Park's under-19s began their CAS Advanced Youth League season with a, victory over Falkirk at Lochinch this week. According to the club's own report, forward Daniel Edzii scored both goals, heading in from a Cole Goldie cross before adding a second just before half-time. The win marked a positive start for new head coach Lee Mitchell, who succeeded Charley King in the role.
Mitchell noted the game was a difficult opening, with Falkirk well organised defensively. "It was a really difficult opening to the game with Falkirk well organised and sitting in a defensive shape, making it difficult for us to break them down," he said. The coach felt his side created enough chances to make the scoreline more comfortable, praising goalkeeper Joe Hastings for some impressive saves to deny Oli Preston and Logan Duffy further goals.
The first team's Championship match against Greenock Morton ended in a 2-1 defeat for Queen's Park. The loss leaves Sean Crighton's side with a record of one win, one draw, and three losses from their opening five league fixtures. They have scored three goals and conceded seven, leaving them with a negative four goal difference and nine points behind early leaders Stenhousemuir.
The team's next fixture is a home match against Ayr United on January 2, 2027.
