Match Report	Report from the Ross-shire Journal. Inverness Citadel 3, Ross County 2 At the Citadel in Inverness, in a Highland League fixture, Ross County started off like real winners, but only to deceive. Hart shot a fine goal after a quarter of an hour's play; this was quickly followed by an equalizer in the County goal, unaccountably letting in a shot that Grey should have saved, although the defence was partly to blame in not giving him better protection. An interesting game followed with the advantage, if any, in favour of Ross County, but Citadel scored the winning point, as it was, Grey having no chance to stop the progress of the ball, which entered the net off an upright. Hart went to centre-half and Urquhart to inside-left in a last effort to force a draw. This change certainly added punch to the attack, and Urquhart was unlucky not to score with a fine drive, but Citadel backs were defending well and held out until the final whistle. As already stated, the County commenced like a winning team and their football was very promising, but not enough advantage was taken of their two clever wing men. Other than his two costly mistakes, Grey was satisfactory in goal. Roddie Munro was superb at right-back. He has increased in weight and speed, and on his Saturday’s showing, it would be hard to find his equal in Highland football. Trail again displayed his versatility, playing a sound and clever game at left-back. The half-line was one of the best fielded this season, and it was a pity to see the side lose with Grant, Urquhart, and Garrow playing so well. Grant was both clever in attack and defence, while his positional play was of a high order. Urquhart has come to stay in the centre-half berth; he improves as he gains experience in that position and has plenty of stamina to stand the roughing. Roddie Garrow's play was a pleasant surprise to the County supporters. In him, the County have an exceptionally clever young player who will yet make a name for himself. The forwards got more of the ball than their opponents but lacked that little bit of finishing touch. Citadel had two very clever backs, especially R. Mackenzie, the old Dingwall Victoria player, while their young centre-half played a profitable game. The diminutive forward was a host in himself and was as skillful in ball control and evasiveness as ever.
