It is hard for him.” “He is relaying that to myself and the goalie coach and we are putting that out there. “That gives the players a right lift and they love that – the fans really backed the players.”

The Dons had an evening to forget at Tannadice as they fell to a shock 4-0 defeat.

I don't want to hide behind any. He added: "To be honest I don't want to hide behind that. "Again I don't want to make an excuse for that performance and I don't want to hide behind the referee or the penalty or whatever it may be. And the Irishman wasn't wanting to put any blame on the referee for the result despite Willie Collum awarding a dubious penalty during the match. We get it and I'm a bit embarrassed." "I am a bit dejected at the performance.

“On the other side, Dundee United played well, they were clinical in front of goal and credit to them for that. “The manager not being on the touchline had nothing to do with it, that’s just an excuse to hide behind. Like most of us, I’ll be watching the game back as soon as I get home tonight to try and see where we went wrong but it wasn’t anywhere near good enough.

Aberdeen have won just two of their last 23 away games in the Premiership.

We came out in the second half and had a bit of a reaction, and I felt we were unlucky not to score. But we didn't, and then with the penalty and the own goal, it kind of just summed the game up for us. For us moving forward that is the levels I expect from them, so we need to keep it going with more performances like that. As I said to the players there is no point taking a step forward tonight if we then go and take two back. We were in a good place before the game, but it was just one of those nights. Speaking to BBC Sport Scotland, he said: "I'm really pleased with the result and performance, but let's not kid ourselves as it's only three points. Lee Sharp would have hoped to get his side in at half time at 1-0 down to try and regroup, but yet more poor defending from the Dons left them with it all to do in the second period. Despite the victory, Dundee United are still rooted to the foot of the Premiership table on five points, but are now only three from safety with Ross County looking over their shoulder. Former Dons transfer target Jamie McGrath stepped up and expertly fired past Kelle Roos to put the game to bed. The introduction of Connor Barron and Leighton Clarkson from the bench early in the second half did finally get the away side into gear, with the latter setting up Bojan Mivoski with a ball over the top, but the striker blazed his effort over the bar. Macedonian striker Bojan Mivoski wasted a glorious chance to put the Dons in front, failing to connect with a cross from Jayden Richardson from six yards out with an open goal facing him. Backed by a strong 4,000 away support who made the trip down the A90, Aberdeen's woeful away run continued, having won just twice on the road in the last 14 months.

Aberdeen fell to a 4-0 loss to basement boys Dundee United on Saturday as the hosts recorded their first win of the season.

I don't want to hide behind any. "Again I don't want to make an excuse for that performance and I don't want to hide behind the referee or the penalty or whatever it may be. We are 2-0 down and even if Jamie (McGrath) goes on and misses the penalty we are still 2-0 down and we probably haven't done enough to get back in the game.

'I'm embarrassed at that performance'. Aberdeen winger Jonny Hayes' brutal assessment of dismal 4-0 loss at Dundee United that 'let fans down'

“We had a game plan to try and expose Dundee United in the wide areas by getting an overload. “We just didn’t do that and we moved the ball too slowly. “This happened last year when we went to St Mirren who were bottom of the league and we lost that game. “The manager and his staff did all of the hard work during the week. Asked if the absence of Goodwin was a contributing factor in the defeat, Hayes said: “No. “I’ve said before in years gone by that sometimes you get a performance like that out of the blue and you hope it’s out of the blue.
