| Match Report | Report from the Ross-shire Journal. Inverness Clachnacuddin 4 Ross County 2 On Saturday, Ross County travelled to Inverness, where they played Clachnacuddin in a Highland League game (writes an esteemed correspondent). The day was not suitable for football, as conditions both overhead and underfoot were deplorable. Rain fell heavily during the whole game, and although the County won the toss and decided to play with the wind and rain behind them, they made poor use of the elements. During the first half, Cumming started out as a halfback, but he was not a success in the position and changed places with Garrow. Even then he was not of much service, as in a tackle he was hurt, and for the remainder of the game limped badly. This may have, to some extent, upset the play, but the County should have made more use of the wind behind them. The teams turned round with the score 2-2. The second half was much the same as the first. It was a game that one could not individualise in. There is no doubt but the Clach were value for their win. They have a team of young and keen players, and they should go far in this season's league. In passing, it might be a useful hint to some of the Ross County players to play the ball and leave the man alone. There was far too much barging into players. This does the team more harm than good. The County appears to be going badly this season, but they should not lose heart, as the writer feels certain they will soon come into their own and again be a power in Northern football. |
