Derek Adams will begin his third tenure in charge of Ross County tomorrow when they host Kilmarnock on Premiership duty.

Adams first took charge as player-boss on an interim basis in 2007, before permanently replacing Dick Campbell at Victoria Park.

After guiding the Staggies to the Second Division title he went on to guide a second-tier County side to the Scottish Cup final against Dundee United in 2010.

Although he left to become Hibernian assistant only a few months later, Adams returned the following year and went on to lead the Dingwall outfit to promotion to the top-flight for the first time in their history in 2012.

County would consolidate in the Premiership for a further two seasons, before Adams was sacked in 2014.

During Adams’ two spells in charge, a total of 97 players turned out for the Staggies.
