Aberdeen parted methods with supervisor Jim Goodwin after simply minutes on Saturday misplaced 6-0 away to Hibernian.
The Pittodrie board demanded an “immediate response” to the membership’s worst-ever defeat to sixth-tier Darwell on Monday.
Instead, Goodwin’s aspect have been blown away by an equally faltering Hibs, taking Aberdeen’s current run of 1 win to 10.
The announcement got here simply 19 minutes after full-time.
Goodwin, 41, was appointed on February 19 final 12 months.
“Jim’s a good guy, he’s given everything here. I met him right after the game and he came over and hugged me and said, ‘I know, Dave, it’s just not that good’,” emotional Aberdeen chairman Dave Cormack instructed BBC Scotland.
“So we parted ways with the company for obvious reasons. Our form has been poor since coming back from the World Cup, our form at home has been pretty good. I think some players also need to take responsibility. A As a Dons fan, I’m 64 now, going there for almost 60 years, I take responsibility. I’m club president and I’ve overseen the changes we’ve made from the football side.
“Like the followers, I felt fairly humiliated right this moment and I’m sorry – they have been improbable right this moment. I’m very passionate concerning the membership. It’s the whole lot to me. It’s our dwelling city. I’ve been out for a very long time. I’m taking the throwers correctly. I deserve it however I’m decided to get it proper.”
Earlier this month, Aberdeen also lost a League Cup semi-final to Rangers in extra time and were thrashed 5–0 in the league by Hearts.
The loss to part-time West of Scotland League Premier Division leaders is generally regarded as the biggest blow in the history of the Scottish Cup, as five tiers were split.
Aberdeen’s worst ever result came as the club began the 40th anniversary year of their greatest ever victory – the European Cup Winners’ Cup Final victory over Real Madrid.
The Pittodrie club has now sacked its last two managers just before they complete a year in office.
Goodwin was recruited on a two-and-a-half-year contract from top-flight rivals St Mirren to replace Stephen Glass, who was sacked in February, 11 months later as the successor to Derek McInnes, who spent eight years in charge.
Goodwin, who began his playing career with Celtic before spells with Stockport County, Scunthorpe United, Huddersfield Town, Oldham Athletic, Hamilton Academical and St Mirren, began his managerial career by leading Alloa Athletic to promotion from Scottish League 1. started.
He returned to St Mirren, who were two places above Aberdeen at the time, when the Pittodrie club made a move to appoint him as manager.
