Jim Goodwin sacked following 6-0 loss to Hibs at the weekend
Aberdeen decided to dismiss Jim Goodwin as manager in a matter of minutes after their 6-0 defeat to Hibernian at Easter Road on Saturday.
The Dons needed to bounce back after their embarrassing loss to sixth tier Darvel the week prior but failed to do so with another bad performance.
The announcement of Goodwin's departure came just 19 minutes after full-time with chairman Dave Cormack apologising for the loss afterwards.
"Like the fans, I felt quite humiliated today and I'm sorry. I am rightly taking the pelters. I deserve it but I am determined to get it right", said Cormack.

Aberdeen sit in 7th in the Scottish Premiership table with 9 points separating them from the bottom of the league
It isn't all doom and gloom for Aberdeen despite the side sitting 7th in the Scottish Premiership table with bookies still making them 1/4 to finish in the Top 6.
The latest odds see Aberdeen at 1000/1 to finish bottom of the league this season with a further free-fall not expected to happen.
A big midweek game against St Mirren is next up for the Dons and Barry Robson could well use it as a job interview for the permanent role.
