Queen's Park remain one of the more familiar names in Scottish football, founded in 1867 and now operating out of The City Stadium. In the 2026-27 season they are in the Championship, sitting ninth during an in-season campaign that has offered more evidence of strain than comfort.
Their squad is a compact one by modern standards, with 26 players and an average age of 25. The numbers point to a side still searching for rhythm: at home they are averaging one goal scored and 1.7 conceded per match, while away from home they have yet to average a goal and are conceding 1.3.
Recent league form has been uneven at best. A 2-1 win over Greenock Morton and a goalless draw at Partick Thistle sit among defeats to Dunfermline Athletic, Stenhousemuir, Raith Rovers and Livingston. Michael Ruth has been their main source of goals with four, ahead of Aidan Connolly and Jack Hamilton on two each.
Queen's Park also featured in League Cup Group A. For Celtic supporters, they are a well-established Scottish club currently fighting near the bottom end of the Championship, with their immediate concern plainly centred on tightening up and finding a more reliable attacking edge.
