It is easily Saturday's for me. Nothing else has come even close. Infact I'm pretty sure that it's my favorite single goal since Paul Ritchie scored the 3rd vs St Johnstone. It's our first ever Scottish Cup game against our biggest rivals, in Dingwall. Our fans had been singing all day and the atmosphere in our end was incredible. In contrast there was hardly a sound coming from the collection of traveling folk and farmers supposedly supporting the Highland's second team and we looked by far the better team. With 5 mins to go we are leading 2-1 and looking comfortable, job done, but then disaster strikes: Vigurs off all people scores with a huge deflection and in the third minute of injury time they get a dodgy free kick out wide which somehow we don't defend and they have put us out. The shadows are delirious. Vigurs is the happiest man in Scotland (he has his revenge and he gleefully gestures to us all to show it). Adams is hugging everyone in in sight and jumping for joy (he's as happy as himself in his barn). And fecking Tokely, Ross Tokely 'club legend', a man upset at a wee bit off booing last month, is running around like he has won the Champions League, his joy at ICT's exit from the cup at the hands of county evident in his moronic grinning face. Everyone is gutted, the look of delight on the gudgies faces is truly awful and the thought off heading back to the mallard for 2 hours until the next train is horrific. But then out of nowhere we have kicked off and OTJ has unleashed a strike from what seems like 40 yards out and we have a corner. 95 mins gone though so no chance surely? Yes chance. Corner comes in, someone heads it, Tokley has lost Foran, I can't see what the hell is is happening but the players are peeling away and the tinks are silent, OH MY GOD GOAL!!!!! Bedlam in our stand, tears in the others. Tokely is truly devastated, Adams' daft wee baby face is contorted in pain and we are still in the cup. THE HIGHLANDS ARE OURS!

I'd now like to submit another choice for this poll: Ian Vigurs' puss after that goal (Credit to CaleyJags.com - http://www.caleyjags.com/pa/g1213/121201_RossCounty/index.html)!

I don't think we did give up in the Motherwell game. The effort was there from the whole team, they just couldn't pull it together.. The attitude comes from the fact that, IMO, this is the closest knit squad we have ever had and every player is out there battling for themselves and everyone else. Terry has a squad that he has built himself and he hadn't allowed (and been happy to get rid of) anyone that doesn't fit in, pull their weight or play their part. You can actually see a visible change in Butcher as well....he's lost a lot of his "Mr Angry" side. Any rants this season have been born from frustration....but most of the time is spent trying to peel him off the ceiling for good reasons. Davie Balfour talks about it a bit in the MFR Fanzone Podcast from last week....he's of the belief that this is a team that has gelled earlier and quicker than many (including Butcher) expected, and... scarily... we've yet to see the best of them. I think he's right.

I would be perfectly happy for the Rangers fans to boycott Planet Earth!

In the 2009/10 promotion run in, 6 games from the end we were dropping points at home to Raith, 3-3, until a certain Richie Foran fired home in the 94th minute. Delirium.

We have, over the years, scored a number of very satisfying goals in the dying seconds of important matches as well as falling victim to more than a few and there is no doubt that last Saturday's was one of the most satisfying but it is not my personal favourite. That distinction goes to a cold winter evening in Methil when we were playing East Fife in a Scottish Cup replay when they were a division ahead of us and Steve Archibald was their player manager. The Fifers held an unmerited 1-0 lead deep into injury time when the egotistical Mr Archibald decided to substitute himself both to run down the remaining seconds and to milk the applause from the home fans. he walked off at a pace that could easily be matched by my aged mother. His reaction when big Herchy used the time the ref added on as a result of his antics to bundle in the equaliser was a sight to behold making Derek Adams seem like a gracious loser and was compounded when we went on to win on penalties. One of my top ten best experiences while supporting our wonderful club without a doubt.

Horrible little club who are way above their station and think they are bigger than they are......and Rangers should know better as well!

Breaking news : Rangers boycotting Champions League!

Thought i saw something on here a while back re away fans getting to use the "facilities" I'll give the relevant folkies a shout. You up for the Dee game IHE, square go in the car park?

This prompts a question - what is the collective noun for Rangers fans? eg A parade of Rangers fans? An embarrassment of Rangers fans?

So you are saying get rid of our top scorer for a defender who is a f**kin liability and upset our current defence? Glad you're not in charge eh! Although you can have the c*unty job if you want it.

Well I was wrong there

By the looks of their stadium on sunday...they were boycotting that game too.

Against County ~12 years ago. County were winning 3-1. Cooper took Karim Bouchra (spelling) off with a couple of minutes to go and we scored 2 in stoppage time. Mind you, Saturdays game has to be up there.

I blame Marvin Andrews.

In the last 6 weeks he has scored 8 goals. Now, in the same time period, that lad Messi has scored 16, BUT ............none of his were against County!

Absolutely, unequivocally without doubt this:
