Aberdeen Football Club today announced that Gardner Speirs has been appointed as caretaker manager with Drew Jarvie as his assistant.
Chief Executive Keith Wyness feels this is the best way forward until such time as a new manager is appointed. “Gardner will be in full charge of all football matters for the interim period while we decide on the appointment of a successor to Ebbe. The Club is in the midst of a difficult period and we are grateful to Gardner for taking the reins just now. We hope this move will remove some of the uncertainty surrounding the Club at this time now and will enable everyone to focus totally on the task in hand which is to see an improvement in the Club's playing fortunes.”
