Aberdeen icon Willie Miller believes his former club should be taking their time in the search for the next boss.
Jim Goodwin hopped over the advertising hoardings at Easter Road 31 days ago after being axed with Barry Robson placed in interim charge since. The former Scotland international and assistant Steve Agnew have two wins and two defeats at the helm. Record Sport understands Robson will make his case for the job on a permanent basis when he meets new chief Alan Burrows – beginning his role with Aberdeen chairman Dave Cormack recovering from heart surgery.
Miller is an admirer of Robson, however, he is backing the club's approach of an open-minded approach after both Goodwin and Stephen Glass both struggled to live up to high expectations in the Granite City. Speaking in his Press and Journal column, he said: "The club know what Robson is capable of and he is not an unknown quantity. Interim manager Robson can rightly throw his hat in the ring for the permanent position if he wants to do that. I don’t think Robson has 100 per cent made it clear if he wants to do that. Robson deserves to be one of the candidates on the shortlist for permanent manager.
