  1. Can anyone explain to my why the Livi first goal, straight after ht, WASN'T ruled out for offside on Obileye. Who literally had to jump over the shot before it went past Wickens. If he's not interfering with play, then why did he have to jump over the ball, thus clearly in the eyeline of the keeper.

    VAR paused the kick off after the goal to look at this but gave the goal, i can't understand why.

  2. Yup, no interest.  Absolutely assume that even if County were to score VAR would invent a way to disallow it.

    Keep the score down, get out with no injuries and as few cards as we can from a biased ref, then onto the next match in Paisley next week.  We've a wee run of games DU, Motherwell & Livi after St Mirren so coming away relatively unscathed is what I hope for out of this.

    Was a strange one. I thought he was the only one with pass marks last week in the first half so was surprised to see him come off.

    I've been told it was tactical and that he's fit to play this weekend, I'd start him against killie.

     

    I think we'll probably see White up front with Dhanda behind today.

    I've liked the look of Jordi but he's had very little to feed off, he could also be a good shout in the "10" role, as his workrate seems good.

    I expect a full review into the pitch invasion and flares. I often wonder what David O’Connor does at the club, which today was confirmed: nothing. He’s stealing a wage, just like he did for most of his short career in the Northern Constabulary. 

     

    Nail on the head right there.

    Whoever was match commander for that game needs punted.  The policing was wholly inadequate and answers need to be gathered and lessons learned.

    Callachan has signed a new two year deal. A little mixed on my thoughts- works hard but hasn't been the marquee signing the club painted him as. Only scored four, but he's been solid rather than good.

     

     

    Agreed, he's not scored the goals that I maybe expected he to after what he did with Accies but imo he's been pivotal  to all the hard work that the midfield 3 have done for us this season.  Callachan and Tillson have been immense for us and I believe Callachan's central to the continuity/harmony of the squad too.

    I'm glad he's extended his stay, it can only mean we're tying up our important players.

    Our new RB looks fun.

     

    He certainly does. Glad that we've been able to get what looks to be a dynamic/pacey right back to replace Clarke so quickly.  

     

    Not sure if he'll go straight in for the home game against Motherwell on Tuesday but it'll be great to get back to the stadium, the atmosphere at viccy park has been so positive lately.

     

    Happy Birthday Hungbo, a winner on Tuesday would be nice.

    I thought Tillson was horrendous. Time and again he lost his man, including Boyce for the 1st. 
     

    GK looked better than Laidlaw but thought his distribution was poor and v slow. 

     

    From my view of the first goal, from the ESE, Tillson had to move out to the left to help Ben Paton, who was getting doubled up on, Boyce was then passed on to Baldwin (maybe Iacovitti) who then gave him too much space.

    It is a bit of an unflattering statistic. County did have a two or three good attempts that came close, but they all went wide of the goal.

     

    I thought it was a shocking miss from White, with a free header whilst the scores were 0-0. Didn't even force a save ffs 

  9. County are still a squad developing, it's been a huge squad turnover this summer and  covid hasn't helped with the signing of new players.  Basically, other than lining up in 352 this season, we're an unknown force, even to our own fans at the moment.

    Hopefully Jack and the Hibs squad have their attention on their european exploits and maybe County can get an away draw, 1-1.

    Agreed, although roasters will be roasters regardless of their surroundings for the most part.
    I have heard a few rumours from various sources and I'll say if we get who we want in it'll be fairly wild.

     

    Ah go'an share the rumours with us, it's not as if we'll tell anyone?

     

    It's monday morning, some exciting rumours could brighten up my shift at work.

    I feel sorry for Charles-Cook. He's never had an extended run in the team in his favoured position. Sporadic appearances here and there and most of them as a wing-back.

     

    I thought he did pretty well defensively against Rooney yesterday he got in quite a few good tackles but again also thought he was disappointing going forward.  It's unfair as he's never had a run of games as you say but on the field, he just looks like a sand-dancer with no end product, or product at all from what we've been shown.   He just runs away from the goal, into trouble, can't seem to find a team-mate with the ball ever and takes the wrong option when presented with an opportunity to shoot.

    FFS 3 months, if true that's bad luck on another level.

     

    In the P&J   https://www.pressandjournal.co.uk/fp/sport/football/ross-county/3355258/ross-county-manager-malky-mackay-hopes-to-make-five-signings-in-coming-week-with-defender-jake-vokins-ruled-out-for-10-weeks-with-metatarsal-fracture/

     

    ...“We had to contend with our starting left back Jake Vokins, in the last minute of training on Friday, who innocuously made a pass and felt something in his foot.

    “It has turned out he has a stress fracture in his fifth metatarsal and will be out for 10 weeks now.

    “Left back might be the eighth one we bring in now, because that’s an extra area we will have to look at again now.

    “Jake had settled in really well in the three games he played. He was absolutely gutted, I spoke to Southampton on Friday and he will be operated on Monday down there.”
     
     
     
    The article also states that there could be as many as 5 new signings in before the next match against Hibs, David Cancola and Harry Clarke being two of them.
