Ross County FC's website was deleted by accident
There are some things that shouldn't happen in this day and age of technology and the internet.
This is one of them.
Scottish Premiership side Ross County FC are having some tech issues this week.
Big ones. And it's not their fault.
According to the Ross-Shire Journal, Ross County's website was DELETED. Poof. It was just gone on Saturday.
It turns out, the web hosting firm that they used accidentally wiped the website from there servers.

It's all well and good to laugh at the absurdity of it all but this is causing some serious headaches for the Staggies. They have a huge clash coming up away at Celtic and fans have to purchase away tickets in advance. Something that's tricky when the website is gone.
It looks as though their webhosting service has been able to do some recovery as the main page was back up. After clicking through, we did manage to land on a few 404 error pages. So there's still more to be done.
Deleting an entire website would be a pretty neat escape act, especially if you were having an embarassing season. But Ross County are doing just fine this year.
