Hailing from the chilly north of Scotland, Ross County are a relatively young football team by British standards. Inexistent until 1929, they host their home matches at the angular confines of The Global Energy Stadium.
As per data obtained from Transfermarkt, the motley crew of 28 players that Ross County boasts in its squad has an aggregated market value of approximately £6.5m. It must be said that the quality of the chaps that run around the pitch for Ross County varies wildly, but they all swap their sweat for the club's badge on their chest nonetheless.
The average age of these 28 men is 26; a decent blend of sprightly youth and grizzled experience, one would argue. Whilst it wouldn’t be right to say that grannies in Dingwall are knitting booties for Ross County’s players just yet, there's a venerable air about the team that potentially reveals a maturity beyond their years.
This season is proving to be a bit of a mixed bag for Ross County. They find themselves mired in 10th place within the Premiership, a situation they’ll be striving to rectify post haste. Blazing a path beyond the second stage of the League Cup proved to be a bridge too far, and their pulsating run in the Scottish Cup was snuffed out in the Fourth Round. Yet hope springs eternal in football, and one can only hope that their fortunes improve as this season of kicked leather progresses.
