David Bates believes Aberdeen’s display in defeat to Rangers on Saturday can be the template to allow the Dons to climb the Premiership table.
The Dons defender insists that the disappointment at losing to a late Kemar Roofe goal won't be allowed to remove the positives as they attempt to pull themselves up from tenth spot and strive for a top-six finish.
Bates also claims the Light Blues were given the benefit of the doubt in the build-up to the game’s crucial moment due to the Ibrox factor.
