Ross County 2-0 Forfar Athletic
Betfred Cup Group B
Wednesday 24th July 2019
The club was formed in 1929 after
North Caledonian Football League clubs Dingwall Victoria United (the 'Dingwall
Victors') and Dingwall Thistle (the 'Dingwall Jags') successfully applied for
the Highland Football League. The club was subsequently renamed Ross County,
playing in the Highland League from 1929 until successfully applying for the
extended Scottish League in 1994.

A brace
from Brian Graham secured a 100% record for County in the group stage of the
Betfred Cup. He fired in from a Gardyne cross to put them ahead after fifteen
minutes and headed home with fifteen remaining in a comfortable evening for the
Staggies.

The
second part of my Highland double during our stay in Inverness.
The
breadknife accompanied me for this one and afterwards we had a drink in every
pub in town, well...both of them - The Caledonian and The Mallard.
