They won't put the fixtures out until after the Dundee Rangers game, so probably not until Thursday morning unless someone at the SPFL is particularly on the ball at 10pm Wednesday

Thought that was Lin Manuel Miranda for a minute & got very confused

I nearly threw up in the last 10 minutes from nerves. Obviously didn't really expect anything, so to have them on the ropes only to give away a penalty was the stuff nightmares are made of. But I was a fool to doubt County.

Those last 10 minutes have been causing me nausea. Just absolutely shiteing it the whole time, especially when Hearts scored. Miraculous result tbh, shame Motherwell shat it.

Didn't lose. I'll take it. Would've been nice to hang on for the win obviously, but only the 1 point behind St Johnstone is an improvement

Oh good, 7 more minutes of this.

Ayina really driving me mad tonight.

Amount of players losing balance you'd think the grass had been replaced by an ice rink.

Was that the first proper shot of the half? Felt like it was.

Would be nice if the defenders would do more than just punt it into touch as soon as they can. Even if it's just punting it to touch slightly further up the park. Not sure if I've seen much evidence that Ayina can do more with the ball than kick it as hard as he can

No, the bus I needed to get from my home to Dingwall. Not much to write home about in that first half besides the goal, but we've defended quite solidly. Well, as much as we've needed to, not like St Mirren have put the defence under much pressure yet.

Currently raging at myself. Have a ticket to this, came home from work, had about 30 minutes before I had to get the bus, sit down on the couch for 5 minutes & wake up 2 hours later. At least I can still watch this one

Sonam is right that the 2nd half was pretty poor, but honestly? Coming back from that 2nd half to score the winner was fantastic, we'd have not done than 3 weeks ago. Mind you, we'd also not have had a 2 goal lead to throw away 3 weeks ago. Playing pish & yet still coming back to win is the sort of thing that is the difference between staying up or getting relegated. Certainly very happy Cowie has his first wing, & hopefully we can build from that now. Getting some confidence in the squad. For me, if I can't get enthusiastic for an injury time win over the time closest to us in the league then I'd stop watching football because clearly it could give me no joy.

I agree, this summer is the perfect time to add teams to the top flight, & definitely not because that looks like the only way County will stay up, honest

Got The Fear this morning. Although there's a dangerous voice at the back of my head whispering that we're long due a turnaround if fortunes...

Almost, Roy McBain scored in the 1st half, Derek Holmes equalised for Hearts with maybe 15-20 minutes left. But we were top of the Third Division that season, won it fairly handily. Pretty sure that game played a large part in County signing Holmes at the end of the season for what seems like silly money now, a Third Division club spending 50 grand? Oddly my abiding memory of the day was being amazed at Hearts selling popcorn at the concessions rather than just the standard pies and Mars bar. Seemed so big league, I don't know why. Well, that and the Black Isle supporters bus dropping 4 of us, 14 year olds, off at 2am in a layby outside Inverness to find our own way home.

That game at Tynecastle was the first non-Highland away game I ever went to. Fun day out. Wasn't that Adams last game before being sold to Motherwell?

Whether you regard St Pauli as diddies or not seems to be missing the point. Which is that Willie Miller has a phone that he can spend 30 seconds googling a players name if he doesn't recognise you & would then be able to at least bluff you into thinking he knows a little of what's talking about. He can't even be arsed to do that. I don't need the guys on the radio to know everything about every new signing but the bare minimum of effort for a job you're getting paid to do isn't actually asking all that much. He doesn't have to do this. I'm sure there's someone at NorthSound or the like (or more likely with Radio Scotland some barely sentient ex-pro) who'd grasp the chance to cover Aberdeen games with both hands.

Hard to disagree. We've got a pretty mediocre squad, the Adams term destroyed whatever squad atmosphere there was, the transfer window is locked shut & all we got to show for it were some loanees from the dark depths of English football. Don Cowie would need to be a miracle worker to see this team finishing higher than 11th. Obviously the Livvy game is the proverbial 6 pointer, come away with nothing there & we're really in deep trouble. And aye, if you told me the grand total of County's scouting budget was buying a copy of Football Manager every year I'm not even sure I'd be shocked. Whatever it is it leaves an awful lot to be desired. Really needs to be sorted out.

At least it wasn't a total embarrassment, that's a step in the right direction.

Good to know, thanks

Assume he'll get a minutes silence at the next home game, against Livi. A fire sounds a dreadful way to go

He'd have more luck trying to convince us the sun is cold

Feel like there should be a way to sack Derek Adams again after that.

This is the weirdest posting gimmick. Even County fans don't hold Adams in as high regard as you, & we're probably the only fanbase that doesn't hold him in complete contempt.
