Glass keen for Dons to ‘right a lot of wrongs’

Stephen Glass knows the difference three points could make to Aberdeen’s predicament as his team prepare to host Hibs tomorrow.

The Easter Road side have only won two of their last seven league games ,but that is still a far healthier state of affairs than at Aberdeen, who have lost five consecutive league matches and not tasted victory in any competition since August.

Glass was backed by Pittodrie chairman Dave Cormack earlier this week, but such a run can continue only so long. After Hibs, Aberdeen head to Ibrox to face Rangers on Wednesday, before they welcome Hearts to Pittodrie next Saturday.

It promises to be another week where the under-pressure manager’s credentials will be given a tough examination.

“There’s three big games in a week and then Motherwell come to town as well, all teams up above us in the division,” pointed out Glass. “It presents an opportunity for us to right a lot of wrongs.

“If we win on Saturday we sit only four points behind Hibs. Listen, it might not happen, but there are not too many people talking about Hibs in the same breath as they are us at the minute.

“There’s a lot of stuff out there, I realise only results change it. That starts here.

“I think any balanced individual who has watched our games would see that’s a team that should be winning more games than they have.

“It doesn’t look like a lost cause when you watch us. It doesn’t look like a group of players that have chucked the towel in. It doesn’t look like a staff that don’t know what they are doing.”
