Barry Robson keeping Aberdeen feet on the ground as he tells stars 'don't get carried away' after taking third spot

Barry Robson praised his Aberdeen side for retaking third place but insisted they aren’t getting carried away because they haven’t achieved anything yet.

A double from Duk was enough to see off relegation-threatened Kilmarnock at Pittodrie. That win and St Mirren’s win over Hearts saw the Dons jump back into third place - for the first time in over four months. Robson, the manager of the month, said: “I’m not getting carried away because we’ve not achieved anything. I will sit down at the end of the season and see where we’re at.

“Then I can maybe get carried away, but until then nothing changes and we move on to the next game. I have been in this game so long I know what’s round the corner, I know what can happen. You have to be the best you can be every day and if you do that you’ll be okay. If you take your foot off the gas then you know what happens. I never thought about third place then and I haven’t thought about it now, to be honest with you.
