Scottish police launch investigation after Jim Goodwin targeted by Aberdeen fans

“There's plenty of cameras at the game so hopefully these guys will be caught and thrown out of football for life,” said the Waterford native.

Scottish police have opened an investigation after Dundee United’s Irish manager Jim Goodwin was pelted with missiles during a feisty win over his former Aberdeen side on Sunday.

Waterford native Goodwin endured an ill-fated 11-month term as Dons boss up to January 2023 and had to withstand a vodka bottle, coins and firelighters being thrown at him during the late victory at Tannadice.
