Jim Goodwin has been sacked by Aberdeen following Saturday's 6-0 loss at Hibs.
The Irishman had been on the brink of dismissal after a wretched run of form which saw West of Scotland junior side Darvel dump the Dons out of the Scottish Cup in one of the most shocking results in tournament history.
After just one win in 10 since the World Cup break, the club decided to act. In an statement released shortly after full time, Aberdeen confirmed that Goodwin was no longer at the helm.
