Two-win target for Calderwood
24 Apr 2007 - 11:26:12
Aberdeen manager Jimmy Calderwood has called on his side's senior players to step up to the mark in the bid to secure a UEFA Cup spot for next season.
The Dons are still well in control of the race to finish third in the SPL, despite having won just once in their last four games.
Calderwood told the Press & Journal: "The majority of the players have never been in this position before.
"Scott Severin, Russell Anderson and Barry Nicholson, as the senior players, have to carry the team now and I'm sure they will.
"We know the expectation levels and I think, if we do get there, it will have been a great learning experience for us all.
"Doubts can come in if you let them, but we have enough cause for optimism. We are still in pole position and the games are running out.
"I still think we need two victories from the four games left to be sure."
