Who’s Mortica? And it’s Livingston.

I live in Scotland. Ross County are very well funded and could blow our budget out of the water any day of the week.
Mortica is the infamous Ross County manager Derek Adams who thought his former club Morecambe with the lowest budget in League 2 were 100% better than most teams in the Scottish Premiership

Well one backer, but he just happens to be one of the wealthiest men in the UK. He's seen Ross County rise from the Highland League to the Premiership having two top six finishes (narrowly missing out on Europe) and winning the League Cup. County can blow Exeter out of the water when it comes to finances.
With respect, if you think Mr MacGregor is “one of the wealthiest men in the UK” then you better saddle up with our friend The Deluder..His relatively modest pile is unlikely to make him the most wealthy man in the Highlands, let alone the UK

The Bridge Inn….on a good day.
Decent signing.
Still two strikers short though.

Scores and celebrates against Plymouth
They could have won that game 5-0 if they weren't so greedy and played a simple square ball to the open player.

I just imagine him doing a bit of salmon fishing and the odd round of golf rather than clubbing 😆
JR Hartridge?

Looking forward to seeing him play, but considering that we don't play a flat back four, it begs the question, who should we expect to leave?
It's called building a squad so when the inevitable injuries and dips in form happen then other decent players are able to slot in. Competition is healthy and left sided players are always needed.

BP played for Charlton and this was the reaction of an Addicks supporting fan I know:
"Good player!! He was in our side a few years back at Wembley when we beat Sunderland in the promotion battle!
Well done you!!!"

Also, is somebody really going to sign him without seeing how his recovery goes after such a long lay off?
Yep given his recovery time, makes sense him getting a a decent pre season in with us, fitness levels back up and a few more sparkling performances and no doubts he'll get a decent move on and up... Saying that think him staying at all will hinge on us staying up.. go down and imo he's off irrespective of fitness ect ect

A good signing. Lots of experience at L1 and the Championship - and that weird beast the SPL.
