Staggies appeal to fans for donations

Dingwall side Ross County hope that the story of their rise from the Highland League to the Scottish Premier League will inspire fans around the country to give them £20 donations to fund their campaign in the top flight.


Fans from Charlton Athletic and MK Dons have already chipped in, but more specifically they are targeting the 20,000 fans who travelled from far and wide to watch County’s historic Scottish Cup final appearance two years ago.

They hope to raise £400,000 to offset the costs of borrowing for the stadium development project and to make more money available to strengthen the team.  They are determined to play their home fixtures at Victoria Park, but upgrading the ground will cost £1.4m.   The balance will come from borrowing and business donations.
