‘Hard work will get us up and running’ says Mackay
Malky Mackay believes hard work on the training pitch can help Ross County end their winless run in the Premiership when they host Kilmarnock today.
The Staggies have started the league campaign with three defeats, the most recent of which was a 1-0 loss at St Mirren last week and they sit bottom of the table.

He said: “We were disappointed with our result at the weekend and we came in and had a good conversation about it.
“What you do about these situations is get back on the grass again and train hard, knowing we have a tough gameupcoming.that’sreally how you do it.
“I have obviously been in this a long time and I have been through it and when you have a result (like last week) you obviously want to talk about it.
“Youdon’twanttosweepit underthecarpet,youhavea conversation and it’s making sure you get back out there and that’s the way you get back to performing again, keep practising and getting confidence every day.
“The players take the lead from myself, but I am not looking at them and thinking they are a mile off. I haven’t since we came back in pre-season and that has showninthegameswehave played.
“The first two games they were excellent, on Saturday it was a very tight game and we were not excellent and didn’t perform to anywhere near the standard that we could.
“It is getting them back up to their standard and then their performances click in and results click in.”
