Ross County boss Don Cowie has been speaking to the media before Saturday's Premier Sports Cup second-round meeting with League 2 Spartans.Here are the key points:
        Cowie wants his side to improve on cup performances: "The goal is to get to Hampden."The Spartans fixture is "challenging" and the Edinburgh club are in the last 16 "for a reason" after topping their group.Cowie rejected unnecessary rotation claims and will "go with a team that gives us a chance of winning".He described new striker Ronan Hale as a "breath of fresh air" following his stoppage-time equaliser versus Motherwell.George Robeston's late introduction on Saturday was a "reward" for the 18-year-old after injury-hit start to life in Dingwall.Neighbours Inverness CT "mean a lot" to Cowie and their situation is "really sad to see".

David Gray has confirmed Hibs have received interest in Dylan Vente, but says it's "too early" to say if the Dutch striker will leave.Vente, who joined the Edinburgh club from Roda JC on a three-year deal last summer, has reportedly travelled to his homeland for talks with Eredivisie side PEC Zwolle. "Yeah, there has been a little bit of interest there, but at the moment he’s still very much a Hibs player," head coach Gray said."It’s too early say just now if he will move on. At the moment, whilst he’s still a Hibs player, I’m just concentrating on how I can get the best out of him. "That’s something I’ll continue doing unless that situation changes."Gray was delighted to add South Korean midfielder Kwon Hyeok-kyu on a season-long loan from Celtic this week."We've seen straight away, the last two days on the grass, the quality and technical ability he has, but also his physicality," he said."He's a real good athlete who covers the ground well. He was somebody I was really impressed with when he went on loan to St Mirren last season."
