Mark Brown is not concerned about the artificial pitch
Ross County have appointed Scott Thomson as the club’s goalkeeping coach. Staggies goalkeeper Mark Brown had the job since the summer, however manager Jim McIntyre is keen for the 33-year-old to concentrate on playing.
McIntyre has turned to Thomson, who previously held the same position at Dunfermline, Dundee United and Hibernian, but has been without a club since leaving the Easter Road side last season.
The Staggies manager said: “Mark is young and has shown in the last couple of performances he’s a key player.
“He’s done exceptionally well for us.
“I just think, to keep him as sharp as he can be, we’ve got to have a goalkeeping coach.
“We brought Scott in and I am very grateful to the chairman and the board for allowing me to bring him in, because we can’t have goalkeepers working on their own.
“They need a goalkeeping coach and we’re delighted to have Scott.
“He’s got great experience, he’s worked with some good clubs, and everywhere he’s been he is very well thought of.”
