This week on Northern Goal, the panel look to the positives following Aberdeen's frustrating draw at Ross County. Is it a good time to play Rangers, and - with Leighton Clarkson suspended - might a rejig see Bojan Miovski and Luis 'Duk' Lopes start together? For County, William Akio's Lazarus-like recovery from a knee injury and equaliser v the Dons means the Staggies have the chance to build momentum against Motherwell. Caley Thistle, meanwhile, maintained an incredible record against Raith to end a bad run and set up the chance to reel in favourites Dundee over the next couple of weeks. Leighton McIntosh again staked his Cove Rangers starting claim ahead of Friday's historic televised Balmoral clash with the Dees. Plus, when will something go right for Peterhead - after Elgin managed their first League Two win of the season against fast-starting Bonnyrigg Rose?
What's at the heart of Aberdeen's superb form, was Ross County's Stuart Kettlewell right to be fuming at John Beaton and how exciting is the new Highland League format?
