President cites 'abuse' as he exits Queen's Park
Briefly

Graeme Shields has resigned as president of Queen's Park, citing personal and online abuse directed at him and others affiliated with the club. The club struggled last season, resulting in a relegation battle, and began this season with two losses. Shields, who held the presidency since January 2024, felt it was the right time to step down after successfully overseeing safety certifications and licensing audits. Queen's Park's management will now work collectively in his absence.
I have taken this decision after much deliberation, particularly having experienced an increased level of personal and online abuse towards myself and others associated with the club in recent months.
Having overseen the successful completion of our safety certificate at The City Stadium and the SFA annual club licencing audit, the time is now right to step away.
