PARS 1 - 1 QOS <p>More timewasting by Robinson.  Pars fans make their way out. <br />

<br />
McMullan being walked off. Looks ok. <p>A clash happened after Geggan took the throw in which resulted in the ball being played long to Morris. Physio is on. <p>Oops not Paton - he`s on the bench! - it was Clark.<br />

<br />
<p>The SPFL have chosen Nicky Clark for their player of the month. <p>If you haven`t heard DAFC have now got a Spotify link up to enable personal playlists for music before, during half time and post match. You can go to the link from COWs and vote for your favourite tracks. It is also being used by the players and tonight`s line up is the music chosen by Sean Murdoch. <p>I make no apologies for wearing my long christmas jumper tonight - it keeps the derriere warm and it`s cauld enough ootside to build snowmen! <p>Strange I was just thinking about Andy Dowie last night too. <br />
<br />
No` like that! <p>Good evening from East End Park with me, Buffy, for tonight`s SPFL Championship fixture between DAFC and Queen of the South<p></td></tr></table>
