Jim Goodwin has revealed he has had an apology from Aberdeen after he claimed he was hit by coins and missiles following their fiery Tannadice clash.
The Dundee United boss confirmed that key individuals at the Dons had reached out to say sorry after the fallout from Saturday night. Goodwin said he was hit by a coin and drinks were thrown at him from a minority of the Red Army behind his dugout. Aberdeen have since issued a statement and are now in dialogue with United and the authorities to try and pinpoint the culprits.
Goodwin said: “Aberdeen have reached out. I have had a couple of messages from key individuals up there apologising. They are as disappointed as I am. It is only a small few, I don’t want to label the entire Aberdeen support with that. It is a handful of individuals who felt the need to do that. I have never experienced that type of thing. It was a different circumstance, the throwing of the coins, the cup of juice and things were said that were a little bit nasty. It was strange.
