Today I caught up with Gardner Speirs, perhaps the nicest man in football/the whole world, to get his opinion on Queens Park’s amateur status for a feature article I’m doing. He was so nice that I thought I’d push for a few snippets on his opinions of everything Thistle related, and he was nice enough to indulge me, so here they are:
