Key player set to miss Stenny clash

A KEY player is set to miss Queen of the South's tussle with League One leaders Stenhousemuir. Forward Brennan Dickenson is "unlikely to be available" for the match after pulling up during Queens' 2-1 victory over Hamilton Accies on Friday night. Manager Peter Murphy stated after the match, the versatile Englishman suffered a hamstring injury but had hoped it could settle down in time for Saturday. However this afternoon, Murphy says Dickenson is still "quite stiff and sore" and isn't expected to feature. Left back Taylor Charters is also a doubt and being monitored after he suffered an abductor strain during the Accies encounter. And Kai Kennedy is "still sore" but is hoped to be available for Saturday.
