Encounters with fans leave Goodwin under no illusions

Jim Goodwin has admitted that he is feeling the pressure ahead of this afternoon’s Viaplay Cup semi-final after a recent trip to Glasgow left him with no doubt about the scale of the job on his hands.

The Aberdeen manager, who will lead his side out at Hampden this afternoon as they take on Rangers, moved to the north east last year after landing the top job at Pittodrie while his family stayed behind in Glasgow.

As a one-club city, Goodwin accepts that Aberdeen can be a bit of a goldfish bowl at times and says it can be difficult to find an escape when things aren’t going well on the park.
