Ross County 1, Dundee 0, Global Energy Stadium, 28-February-15

After a long Saturday at work l was hoping to be cheered up with a good Dundee result at Dingwall, but as usual it was another 1-0 defeat and poor performance up there. Paul McGowan missed out due to injury with Gary Harkins coming in.

The only chance in a poor first half was for County when Gardyne shot over from just inside the box, the highlights I have seen it looked like County won the midfield battle and when Greg Stewart had to go off injured due to some heavy challenges made Dundee struggle even more.

Second half and it was much the same vein with County looking more like to score Scott Bain made a good save with he touched a shot onto the post, but County's winner came in 65 minutes when Reckord tapped the ball home after good work by Gardyne. Soon after they hit the bar but as the game went out Dundee could not create any real chance in the final third of the pitch.

At least the teams around us in the league lost as well so we are still in the top six for now. The team now has a chance to recover as we don't have any games for a couple of weeks.

Dundee: Bain, Paul McGinn, McPake, Konrad, Dyer, Stephen McGinn, Thomson (Ferry 60), Harris (Black 81), McAlister, Stewart (Wighton 44), Harkins. Unused Subs: Letheren (gk), McBride, Gadzhalov, Colquhoun.
