The 2014–15 season was the club's 2nd season in the Scottish Premiership and their third consecutive appearance in the top flight of Scottish football. Ross County also competed in the League Cup and the Scottish Cup.

Summary

Management

The club began the 2014-15 season under the management of Derek Adams. On 28 August 2014, after a poor start to the season, Adams was sacked along with his father who was a director of football.[1] On 9 September 2014, Jim McIntyre joined from Scottish Championship side Queen of the South with Billy Dodds as his assistant.[2]

Season summary

County lost their first 7 games of the season and were rock-bottom of The Premiership. After the sacking of Derek Adams in late August, in September, they hired Jim McIntyre and started to pick up results. With County still bottom, McIntyre was backed by the board to bring in some new players.[3] They failed to win a match between end of November to the end of January. After the 4-0 defeat away to Aberdeen in early February, County went on an unbeaten run up to the split, winning 8 of the next 9 matches. On 13 April, Liam Boyce scored the club's first ever top-flight hat-trick for County in a 3-0 win at St Mirren.[4] On 16 May, County secured their Premiership status for the 2015-16 season after winning 2-1 against Hamilton Academical.[5]
