Beating Celts Won't Be Enough For Fans

Mar 9 2008 By Scott Mcdermott

JIMMY CALDERWOOD insists he can lead his side to Hampden - but says even a win over Celtic is only enough to keep fans off his back for a week.

The Aberdeen boss is as frustrated as any punter at the lack of consistency from his side in the SPL.

But Caldo believes his men are as good as any team on their day and urged his stars to prove it.

He said: "Our league form has been disappointing all season. But on any given day we can match anyone.

"We can cause an upset against Celtic today and put a smile on the fans' faces - even if it's only for a week!"

And the Dons gaffer says the level of expectation at the club drives him on.

He said: "Our fans still expect a cup final and an SPL title every year.

It's great to have that but annoying at times too."
