Ross County v Partick Thistle - County missing experienced duo
Posted Saturday, October 02, 2010 by PA
Ross County manager Derek Adams will be without experienced strikers Steven Craig and Andrew Barrowman again through injury for the visit of struggling Partick Thistle.
Adams has told his players that they will need to battle for everything against Ian McCall's men, despite Partick being bottom of the table.
He said: "I have never had an easy game against Partick Thistle and I don't expect this game or the one next week in the ALBA Challenge Cup to be straightforward.
"Thistle have a lot of experienced players in their ranks and will be very dangerous opponents.
"We have a good record at home and I aim to still be saying that when Thistle are leaving after this game."
Partick Thistle received a boost with club captain Alan Archibald returning to the squad following injury.
Archibald was taken off a fortnight ago at Queen of the South in his comeback game after six months out, but it was only severe bruising he had experienced.
Thistle are light in the midfield area with David Rowson and Ryan MacBeth both ruled out through injury.
Jags assistant boss Ian Maxwell said: "We're getting to the stage in our season where we will take a win by any means possible.
"It would be great to get three points up at Dingwall and get us going at long last."
