Phew. Serious let off there. 3-3 would be deserved imho after Buckie dominated the last 10 mins, but we'll obviously take the win. Locos on Wednesday should be interesting... 'Mon the City You say "deserved " . I don't think a team dominating 10 minutes of a game really deserve any more than they got yesterday. Buckie fans are a bit of a precious bunch though. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't think we dominated too much of the other 80 in what was a hard fought pretty scrappy game (I thought). Buckie fans have always been previous, mind 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

welshbairn Posted October 6, 2021 Share Posted October 6, 2021 (edited) Hearing that Rod Houston, the Highland League secretary, is retiring at the end of the season. Hopefully he's training up @RH33 to take over! Edited October 6, 2021 by welshbairn 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sherrif John Bunnell Posted October 7, 2021 Share Posted October 7, 2021 This might be one for @Jimmy Shaker but does anyone know if there is an archive of Highland League results anywhere online? I've seen the stat doing the rounds this week that this season is Ross County's worst league start since they entered the SFL in 1994. I'm assuming it will be the worst since at least 1986, when County finished bottom of the HFL. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jimmy Shaker Posted October 7, 2021 Share Posted October 7, 2021 The tables exist, but I can’t find out if they were recreated from results or just copied from the papers at the end of each season. I have the results for each season going back to 1981/82. Will have a look later, am at the stove just now. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm assuming it will be the worst since at least 1986, when County finished bottom of the HFL. County's number from the opening months of the 1986/87 season were... P8, W1, L7, GF 8, GA 33, Pts 3. Their first win of the season came in their third game, against Deveronvale at Victoria Park. Their second league win came in game 15 at Clachnacuddin, with all the other games inbetween going down as defeats. They lost to every side in the league that season at least once, with the exception of Clach who they took four (count 'em!) point off. P15, W2, L13, GF 15, GA 51, Pts 6. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AsimButtHitsASix Posted October 8, 2021 Share Posted October 8, 2021 Would that not have been 4 points back then? Or was the Highland League ahead of the game with three points for a win? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jimmy Shaker Posted October 8, 2021 Share Posted October 8, 2021 The Highland League went to three points for a win ahead of the 1982/83 season. One of the few times we've been ahead of the curve. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm sure Malky will be delighted to know that he edges the start by the worst team in Ross County history by goal difference. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hopefully he's training up @RH33 to take over! Oh and I won't be taking over, in part as I'm based in the central belt! Am aware that people won't like dad, but he's served football in the north for a very long time, both at schools level, north FA etc. I can't see him not being at a game on a Saturday! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
