Championship player of the month Willie Gibson on Queen of the South's remarkable run


Queen of the South are looking to make it five wins in a row tomorrow when they welcome Alloa Athletic to Palmerston Park in the Scottish Championship.

A huge swing in fortunes has seen the club go from bottom of the table on Boxing Day to the play off zone.

Veteran defender Willie Gibson's role in that run has been recognised with him picking up the division's player of the month award.

With home schooling his young sons, managing the reserve team and daily trips to train in Hamilton, life has been busy for the veteran in the last year.

The hard work is paying off - with Queens' remarkable bounce back from bottom of the league on Boxing Day.

The journeyman is fitter than ever, enjoying full-time football after several years in lower divisions.
