With just over 10 minutes to go, Blue Toon defender Jason Brown received his marching orders for what appeared to be an elbow on Queen’s Park substitute Connor Smith.
Another double substitution from the away side as goal scorer Simon Murray and Louis Longridge are replaced by Jai Quitongo and Connor McBride to add fresh legs at the top end of the park. Despite this change of personnel, Queen’s could not muster an equaliser.
Next up is an away trip to Montrose where Queen’s will be looking to bounce back with a victory to gain some momentum for the upcoming play-offs.
