With St. Johnstone beating Hearts at weekend, they will be right up for this and looking to get a winning run going . Massive match, one of those that will be important not to lose. A home win would be season defining. Can't wait!!

Tell that to your crap ICT team when you watch them, hear the football is truly awful!!

Eh? What you on about? Thought you'd be focused on your in own team and struggles.

Think St. Johnstone will stay up as well, great win for ya's. Just hope Dundee stay bottom and other teams fall into the relegation battle, want more than 3 teams in this fight.

Long way to go in this relegation battle, exciting league this season. Other teams will sink into this, County will pick up good points am sure. St. Johnstone match will be interesting alright! Bad time to play when they hit form now, but still confident of at least a draw.

I don't know, Dundee will lose at Parkhead tomorrow, but wouldn't be suprised if he kept them up in the end. McGhee was a good manager before. My hope is for County to drag other teams down into this relegation dogfight. 3 horse race is too narrow.

Ross County have 3 huge fixtures ahead, St. Johnstone (H), Motherwell (A), St. Mirren (H), Still confident we can beat the play offs, but St. Johnstone turned the corner, just hope Dundee don't get new manager bounce.

Good that it's going ahead, paid for stream. Not confident today, think Hibs will win this one.

Now that McGhee getting written off by everyone, once Celtic match out of the way, wouldn't be suprised if he hits a new manager bounce, Dundee stay up somehow. Definitely a very bizarre appointment, but the guy isn't the idiot many are making him out to be. As long as you beat ICT in play offs, that will do. Can see other teams being dragged into relegation battle which will make it more interesting.

Come on Hearts, this is huge for us, hit a few past St. Johnstone, you know you want them to go down and prefer the County away day!!

I've been very impressed by names St. Mirren had linked with so far; Think you well may come out of this much stronger. Paul Lambert, Derek Adams, people with actual experience and decent success in past. Contacts they have will be extensive. If went for Scott Brown, he would be determined to succeed, I think there is a manager there. I know not popular as a player, but as a manager I would not bet against him being really good. Again, will have well handy contacts. Can see him to better if fiocuses on manager only, rather than player/manager though. All better than Ross IMO;

Did fine at Norwich though and bound to have excellent player contacts. I reckon he'd do well.

How's the weather down there, is this likely to be on? Any pitch inspections planned? Will wait till tomorrow before paying for stream...

Paul Lambert would be an excellent appointment for St. Mirren, if true!! Doubt it to be honest.

Derek Adams, geniually think he would do well.

Also wonder why the rush? Why not give Robson a couple of weeks, see how that goes and do thorough search? Panic in Aberdeen it seems! All for Goodwin!!? A rookie!

It really doesn't appear to take much to be seen as a 'rising star', these days. It"s as if lack of managers out there. Goodwin has achieved little so far this season. St. Mirren could still be relegated yet! At least with Ross his Sunderland experience is valuable. A failure at a club, can be character building. Adams has good experience too and achieved. Yet Goodwin talk of town, hehe. This is gonna end in tears for Dons. Better off sticking with Robson!

Ross would be a good appointment I reckon and may well suprise you all. More experienced manager than Goodwin who many are raving about. Too early in Goodwin's career to see if he is the real deal yet, definite gamble! Suprised no bigger names being mentioned, thought there would be more experienced, proven managers wanting this job. Some must be comfortable on the golf courses between jobs. Surely some viable managers down in England....

That's the thing Celtic should do, rest players next leg. Bodo done enough to go through and will be well organised at home, hit on break. If Celtic focus on lesgue, play youth players for Euro experience away to Bodo, all the time whilst Rangers distracted by more gruelling Euro matches (worth very little money reqard, not the Champions League), can see it benefiting Celtic in the title race. For some bizarre reason, I support all Scottish teams in Europe and wanted wins from both Rangers & Celtic tonight, not that it helps non old firm teams. Knew Bodo would not be easy.

Exactly!!

Normally this would be the type of match where I'd be delighted if County took a point. Hibs appeared to have turned a corner against Arbroath and I do think Maloney will get them to go on a winning run, sooner or later. Reckon he will turn out a good manager if Hibs fans give him time to build a team and develop a system. Hibs will finish top 6 I reckon, which considering change of manager is no disaster. They are looking good with a cup run, great chance of semi final as well, should beat Motherwell. Don't get the over panic their fans having, early days yet in Maloney's reign. For teams like Hibs, Aberdeen, St. Mirren, Motherwell, they all will be safe, despite fan pressure if they go on a losing run, it's an easy league for them this season. Great chance to bring in youth players, try them out etc. While Dundee will lose on Sunday at home to Celtic, can see St. Johnstone getting point or even a win against Hearts who look totally off form. Long way to go in the relegation battle, but a clever, smash and grab away win for County here would be such a huge result. Possibly biggest win of season if happened. Can't see it though, and sure will be willing Hearts on against St. Johnstone. Last thing we need is for St. Johnstone to start winning run. Things could get closer in coming weeks, far from safe yet. Difficult match this for sure.

Thing is, St. Mirren well safe this season, so can afford a few losses even if it does drag on. Don't think it's an intelligent move for Goodwin, massive expectation at Aberdeen to achieve the unachievable. He'd be better staying, one more good season then a safer job in England.

Let's hope so!!

Where are the other names (non Scottish league) Suprised so few so far that's all.

I'"m hopeful County can still avoid relegation, but am afraid Dundee could get a new manager bounce now that would make things closer. Ross would be great for them if they land him. Even if County did fall into play off place, reckon we'd be favourites, even against Killie, ICT. Would NOT like Arbroath in play off final, that's certain defeat. Hope they win title. Main thing this season, even if County went down, we have been scoring goals, love the attacking football, so much better to watch than last season. Hate being near the play offs, but does make the season well entertaining. Better than mid table safety each year. Bring the battle on, can't wait!
