Goodwin appointed Dundee United manager

0

Jim Goodwin has been appointed Dundee United's new manager until the end of the season, just one month after he was sacked by Aberdeen.

The 41-year-old replaces Liam Fox at Tannadice after he was sacked following their 4-0 Scottish Premiership defeat to Ross County.

United are four points adrift at the bottom of the table, albeit with a game in hand, but are without a league win since January 2.

Goodwin becomes the club's third manager of the season after Jack Ross was dismissed in the wake of their 9-0 humiliation at home to Celtic last August.

His first game in charge this weekend will be against the Dons, who fired him at the end of January after a Scottish Cup exit to sixth-tier Darvel was followed by a 6-0 Scottish Premiership defeat at Hibernian

Speaking to the club's official website, Goodwin said: "I'm delighted to be given the opportunity to manage this fabulous club which has a rich history and a passionate fanbase.

"I recognise the job at hand - the sole aim for the remainder of the season is to maintain our Premiership status
