Anthony Stewart is delighted to have led Aberdeen to third place because he is first to accept that his time at Pittodrie hasn’t all been plain sailing.
Jim Goodwin moved to sign the experienced defender from Wycombe Wanderers in the summer and made an immediate show of faith in him by handing him the captain’s armband. Stewart has helped the Dons come good when it mattered but there are other times where he has come in for some stinging criticism after some less than secure performances or mistakes.
It has seen him come into the firing line - especially on Twitter. The defender said: “When I first came to Scotland I didn’t know much about the expectations of the club. I used to look at social media when I joined and read the comments when they were good and when they were bad. After a while I said to myself that I wasn’t here to impress anyone else but my team-mates, the gaffer and myself.
