Jim Goodwin insists Aberdeen must start making days out at Hampden the norm by taking another step on Wednesday night towards ending an eight-year wait for a major trophy.
The visit of Partick Thistle is an opportunity to book a last four spot at the national stadium in the Premier Sports Cup which brought the club their last success in 2014 with a final win over Inverness Caledonian Thistle. It’s that lack of achievement for the Reds in recent years which have starved the fans from enjoying glory trips to Glasgow which is driving Goodwin’s ambition to make Mount Florida a regular destination.
The Aberdeen boss said: “A club like Aberdeen with the resources available, with the history, the depth of the supporters and everything else which goes with it, we should be aiming for semi-finals as the minimum. When you get to that stage of the competition then anything can happen.
