| Match Report | Match Report Report by Mike Tremlett for the Press & Journal. Fort William 1 Ross County 4 Ross County's Lochaber-based midfield man Tom Drummond could miss tonight's Press and Journal Highland League game against Nairn County at Station Park (7.30). Former Fort man Drummond, who stepped into the playmaker role normally occupied by the injured Gordon Connelly, starred against his old club at Claggan Park on Saturday, but could be ruled out at Nairn by work commitments. County assistant manager Don Cowie also plans a fitness check on defender Sandy MacLeod after he picked up a shin injury against Fort Willian in a match which County won comfortably after going behind. Mike RIDPEATH, recalled to the Fort first team after two games in the reserves, handed County their setback in the 35th minute with the help of a deflection off County's Robbie Williamson. Brian GRANT snatched his 25th goal of the season to level matters before the break and Alan DUFF put County ahead in 55 minutes, Barry WILSON gave County a 3-1 lead but it took a CAMPBELL own goal in the final minute to finally subdue fighting Fort. "Fort look to be shaping into a useful side and they will improve once the good individuals in their side begin to knit into a team," said Cowie. "From our point of view it was a better performance than we have came up with in recent weeks because we made a lot of scoring chances early on and then picked up once we went behind in much the same vein." |
