Jim Goodwin has admitted he does not want to have to endure another mammoth Aberdeen rebuild in 12 months’ time. The Dons boss hopes this summer’s vast overturn of players is a one-off.
The north-east side have made six signings so far while nine players have left in recent months., and the the Reds have splashed almost a £1million in signing the players they hope will propel them up the league with more arrivals set to follow in the coming weeks.
And Goodwin is praying they get their business spot on this year to avoid having to do it all over again in 2023. He said: “I hope it is a one off. It had to be done. I have to believe all the decisions I made were the right ones for the right reasons. I was upfront with every individual involved with those discussions. I was on great terms with the majority that left when they did. They are difficult decisions that any manager in any industry has to make.
