Stephen Robinson has officially been sacked as the head coach of Aberdeen following a damaging 4-0 home mauling at the hands of Hibernian. The lopsided Scottish Premiership encounter proved to be his final match in charge of the team, with the club's hierarchy deciding to make an immediate change in leadership following the heavy defeat on home turf.
Speaking in what has now become his concluding interview as the Aberdeen boss, Robinson remained adamant about his coaching credentials despite the brutal scoreline. When addressing the fallout from the four-goal loss, he stood firm on his personal conviction, telling reporters: "I believe in my ability."
During that same post-match media appearance, Robinson made it clear that he intended to carry on working unless the decision was taken out of his hands. Faced with mounting scrutiny after the Hibernian defeat, the head coach vowed that he would "keep fighting until told otherwise," signaling his readiness to confront the difficult circumstances head-on.
Ultimately, that final word has now arrived from Aberdeen, bringing a formal conclusion to Robinson's time as head coach. Following the 4-0 Scottish Premiership defeat to Hibernian and his subsequent dismissal, the Scottish football club must now look to chart a new path forward in the wake of his departure.
