Under-pressure Jim Goodwin admits he’s living on borrowed time and faces a major task in getting the Aberdeen fans and board back on side.
The struggling boss thanked the club’s directors for giving him another chance because he knows it would have been easy to sack him after Monday’s Scottish Cup fiasco at Darvel. Goodwin, who takes his team to Hibs on Saturday, has been given a short-term reprieve and he knows unless he starts to put wins on the board, he will pay the price.
The manager said: “I am grateful to the board of directors for giving me this opportunity on Saturday. It would have been easy to sack me, that would be the easy option. They’ve shown great belief in me in bringing me to the club in the first place and I’ve had great support from the board in order to make the kind of changes we have made behind the scenes and on the park.
