Home to Aberdeen, then home to Motherwell, away to Livi, Home to Hibs and then away to Saintees would be ideal for our five. Hibs and Livi hopefully downed tools by that point.

I think my favourite blink and you’ll miss it player (although he was there for a few years) was Franck Escalon, just oozed class. The thing about all Coopers teams was they were just built to attack, you just never knew what you were going to get. Well apart from when we played Caley and it was always going to be 3-0 with Iain Stewart scoring.

LOL

Alex Burke scored against St Mirren, but joined St Mirren afterwards. So wasn’t an ex player scoring at that point. I’m sure there are more. Marcus Fraser and Yohan Arquin scored against us playing for you guys.

I will have to give that a hard no, I was full on Tetris Effect mad playing that much chess. I did have two boards set up at home with each league game and in my lunch and break I would be practising moves. Plus putting all that practice in and still getting beat by you was disheartening

Anyway for the appointment of Don there was no one really else to consider. Thought it would be Derek or Don last time, so there is only one choice now. A good opportunity for him and hope he does well. Understands the club and has attended matches since he was kid. Being ballboy at our record win against St Cuthbert Wanderers.

Totally agree. To be technical we are all on the Autistic spectrum. To be diagnosed with ASD you have to test high in three different factors. Social interaction is only one of those. I have undergone autistic testing and scored highly in the systemisation and routine aspect, but low on the others. If we all took a test we will find that we all share traits associated with ASD, but at no point would anyone be close to being diagnosed with one factor. If anyone is interested in autism and finding out more can look up the work of Simon Baron-Cohen (cousin of Sasha).

So you’re saying he wait until the end of the season before taking it?

Quite possibly the worst appointment in Ross County’s history. Since that interview against Dundee it’s been an utter car crash. it started pretty well to be honest, the team looked remarkably more solid and cohesive. Then BOOM. He fucked it. In his last tenure there were issues with Grant Munro, Paul Lawson, Mikey Fraser, Sean Higgins etc but he just hasn’t changed at all. So what name will Roy pull out of his tombola now? His only other signature move is steal someone from Caley.

That’s definitely the best use of a hand since Diego Maradona.

I watched Groundhog Day. I forgot how good Bill Murray is in it. Listening to Sonny and Cher and having to meet Ned Ryerson everyday would drive me insane. A very good film, and quite possibly Egon Spengler's best work as a director. 8/10.

I think it was a combination of Medvedev just being unable to continue at the level due to running out of steam and Sinner coming into the match. No one in history has ever been on court as long as Medvedev in his Australian Open run. Much like Murray his exertions in getting to the final probably robbed him of the chance of performing at the highest level. Edited to add: Sinner deserves much credit for just sticking in there and believing that he would do it. Once he broke in that third set, it felt to me like the many matches Andy turned around. The I’ve got you now moments.

Medvedev becomes the only player in history to lose two Slam finals from two sets up. Now has lost five slam finals from six. Sinner was superb in the end, he couldn’t cope with Medvedev’s disruptive brilliance and then took Medvedev’s legs away much like Novak has done to so many of his victims in Australia. He was absolutely ruthless against Novak and has been incredible the last six months. That was the first ever completed slam match where Novak never made a break point. In the women’s side Sabalenka is just relentless. Her mental demons are just slowly disappearing, and her pressure on Gauff after what happened at the US Open was great to see. It’s difficult to think that two years ago she would double fault fifteen times a match. Andy Murray returns to action tonight against Benoit Paire. Probably the biggest waste of talent tennis has ever seen. He’ll be wanting to put behind his awful display at the Australian Open.

It will be due to waterlogging rather than being a frozen pitch.

I’d imagine Adams was emotive as he hates losing, and can be one of the biggest whiners ever. So a large part of that interview should be taken with a pinch of salt. However, having seen what he does many times, he is angling for a bigger budget to be given to him in January. McGregor would have heard him loud and clear and will no doubt give him more money. Comments were over the top but I thought he was slagging the squad he has inherited.

He beat Nadal in Australia before Lendl came on board the first time. The thing people forget when comparing head to heads is that even when Murray wasn't playing well he never really had a shock exit apart from maybe Kevin Anderson in US Open 2015. He worked and grinded out through the field until he met the big three. Nadal and Federer were out there losing to Fognini, Seppi, Berdych, Tsonga, Muller, Ferrer, Darcis, Rosol and Stakhovski before they were seeded to face Murray. In 2014 he went 0-9 against them. Murray has only played Nadal once off clay since 2011, usually as he couldn't get past a jobber. Two of the most surprising things about Murray's career - he never played Federer on clay and he never played Nadal being coached by Lendl.

Called it.

It was just used to indicate how much rain had fallen over the morning, and surface water was being retained. This has lead to local flooding.

That’s the road between Strathpeffer and Dingwall closed due to flooding.

That’s all well and good but the rain where the game is actually taking place isn’t fine ️️️

I am assuming you don’t live in Dingwall, as it’s been utterly pishing down all morning. There is surface water on the fields near me, and also anywhere the drainage is a bit slow. The car park where I live is a miniature Loch. With the forecast to see rain fall until after 6pm even if the game started there isn’t any guarantee it would finish. And then you potentially could have travel stopped for travelling fans on the way home.

It's a free flowing game of Rugby and Scotland have played well to bury their hoodoo against Ireland and they lead 45 - 28 on 77 minutes. Both teams have got four tries and have secured bonus points. South Africa are going to win the group on points difference, and Scotland second due to head to head. What's to stop Ireland just conceding another try? That puts us top on points scored, and SA out on head to head.

How old would you guess the person was? There is a time frame before County came into the SPFL where people would have a “big” team and attend County games. So it would certainly be more common for 40 odds and above. Still a wrong ‘un for sure

Apart from Ross County who do it every season. Seven points already is going against the script.

Pretty good win for GB in the Davis Cup to go through to the finals that will be played in November. The draw is on Wednesday I think and could be drawn against Serbia or Italy. For me Novak has been the GOAT since he won all four in a row playing perfect tennis. As his physicality has declined he has adapted his game more and more. He’ll still be in a good place to challenge for all four next year too. Should wipe Court’s 24 from the record books.
