Biography

4/10/2007 - 25/11/2010 Derek Adams

Derek Adams was then appointed sole manager of the County. A solid start turned to into some exceptional results, as soon County were to embark on a winning sequence of 10 league games, stoped only by a decent 1-1 draw away at Peterhead (managed by Neale Cooper). County also knocked out a couple of non-league clubs in the Scottish Cup before losing to Saint Johnstone.

He made an early decision to carry on playing but did feel that combining the roles was not an ideal arrangement.

Billy Kirkwood returned to his favoured role in the youth development but was to remain an intergral part of the match day managament team helping Derek out.

It was to be March before County tasted defeat under Adams as a commanding lead was built up in the 2nd Division.
