Ross County’s manager, Don Cowie, is determined to shatter the statistic of their 14-month away league win drought. The team has struggled to secure victories outside the Highlands, with 21 Premiership fixtures played away from home since their last three points in September 2023. Despite losses to Rangers and St Johnstone, they have shown promise with draws at Motherwell and Hearts this season.
Cowie acknowledges the challenge but remains optimistic about the team’s ability to turn things around. He emphasizes the importance of changing the narrative and breaking the streak of winless away games. While the statistics may be daunting, Cowie believes that every away game presents an opportunity for a positive result.
Having secured a spot in the Premiership through the playoffs in recent years, Ross County is eager to establish themselves as a competitive force in the league. Cowie highlights the difficulty of the Premiership and the team’s determination to avoid relegation battles in the future. By focusing on consistency and banking points, they hope to position themselves well for the upcoming seasons.
The manager also emphasizes the importance of every player in the squad, regardless of their playing time. Cowie values the unity and teamwork within the team, stressing that each player has a role to play in the team’s success. He encourages all players to stay prepared and make an impact when given the opportunity, fostering a supportive and competitive environment within the squad.
As Ross County prepares to face St Mirren, who recently ended a losing streak with a comeback victory, Cowie remains focused on the task at hand. The team will be looking to capitalize on the opportunity to secure an away win, with no fresh injury concerns and Charlie Telfer back in the squad after serving a suspension. The upcoming match presents a chance for Ross County to break their winless streak and climb up the league standings, showcasing their resilience and determination to succeed.
