sting

A good start for County today in what was billed as a very tricky tie. 2-0 up with goals from Turner

Most loans will not be available yet. It wont be until after teams have their squads mostly sorted so they can decide who goes out on loan

Still has another year left on his contract and surely he will be offered an extension

I may be a bit cynical here but I think the club decides who gets it and the vote is just a smokescreen, maybe all to do with a confidence thing. I was sure Dhanda wouldnt win it 2 months in a row and Brophy was well deserving of it was maybe overlooked because of all the plaudits he is getting elsewhere. BTW for what its worth my vote went to Harmon who I thought was outstanding every game doing a lot which often goes unnoticed

Dont know what happened there. Seemingly a deal was done for Charlton to sign him from Wigan a couple of days ago. How can we take him on loan now the transfer window has shut

As far as I am aware both Laidlaw and Ross Munro unless you have heard different

Good assist today for Whites goal

A young striker that knows where the goal is if he gets the service. Was out on loan to Montrose for the first half of the season where he scored 6 goals.

You could add Scott Leitch to that

I can only imagine by this there has been a sickness outbreak

Maybe not. From the BBC it seems County are that confident they are only fielding 10 players LINE-UPS at Global Energy Stadium Ross County v Celtic (15:00) Ross County: Laidlaw, Randall, Baldwin, Iacovitti, Purrington, Cancola, Tillson, Paton, D. Samuel, Hiwula. Substitutes: Eastwood, Owura, Dhanda, Sims, Johnson, Loturi, Harmon, Olaigbe, White. Celtic: Hart, Juranovic, Jenz, Carter-Vickers, Taylor, McGregor, O'Riley, Turnbull, Jota, Maeda, Kyogo. Substitutes: Siegrist, Startfelt, Giakoumakis, Abada, Mooy, McCarthy, Bernabei, Forrest, Ralston.

Having seen the lineups and no Edwards or Sims I can only assume Malky has identified a weakness through the centre
