| Comments | Match Report Report from the Daily Record Queen's Park 0 Ross County 3 Jim Kelly reckons Ross County are heading for a jackpot--because they Don't pick draws. The Dingwall No.2 watched his side demolish a Queen's outfit weakened by illness and pointed out: "We've won six of our last seven games. "We don't get involved in draws-- we've not had one in all our 11 league matches. "But maybe that's just as well when there are three points for a win. "We had a difficult start to the season, but there is a real buzz about the side now. "We're playing some good football and we have a little bit of bite in there, too." Andy MacLeod started it off with a cracking 30-yarder in 28 minutes. Five minutes after the break he weaved into the penalty area, was brought down and Derek Adams scored with the spot-kick. And MacLeod created the chance for Adams to complete the scoring just seven minutes later. Queen's coach Hugh McCann moaned: "The virus that has hit the club left us stretched." |
