The 2015–16 season is Queen of the South's third consecutive season back in the second tier of Scottish football and their third season in the Scottish Championship,[1] having been promoted as champions from the Scottish Second Division at the end of the 2012–13 season.[2] Queens will also be competing in the Challenge Cup, League Cup and the Scottish Cup.
Queen of the South finished seventh in the Scottish Championship.
The club reached the second round of the Challenge Cup, the second round of the League Cup and the fourth round of the Scottish Cup.
The club began the 2015–16 season under the management of James Fowler and he remained in charge until 18 April 2016, when he left the club by mutual consent, two days after a 2–2 draw at already relegated Alloa Athletic. Queens objective was to finish in fourth and reach the play-offs for the third consecutive season. Gavin Skelton, who had been Fowler's assistant, was appointed caretaker manager alongside ex-club captain Jim Thomson, for the final two league matches of the season.[3]
