Jim Goodwin reveals advice he gave Jamie McGrath before Wigan switch as Aberdeen move onto 'other targets'

Jim Goodwin insists Aberdeen are ready to go on the offensive against St Mirren and set out their stall for the season ahead.

The Dons boss believes his team can harness the change of mood music at Pittodrie ahead of a clash with his old club as they aim to put their first Premiership points on the board tomorrow. A defeat to Celtic in their opener hasn't dented a belief amongst the Red Army that this campaign can deliver better fortunes than last season's struggles and Goodwin hopes to keep the support onside with a front-foot forward approach.

He said: "There was a real feel-good factor after the League Cup group stage, albeit we've not allowed ourselves to get carried away with that because we know we should be beating teams that were in our group. I think it was the manner in which we did that and that's what pleased us most.
