Stephen Robinson has been speaking to the media before Aberdeen's Premiership trip to St Mirren on Saturday.
Here are the key lines:
- On returning to his former club and the reaction that awaits, Robinson says given his achievements there "you would expect a good one". However, he admits: "This is football… so I can't imagine it will be that good."
- With the nine-place Dons just three points above St Mirren and second-bottom Kilmarnock, Robinson is well aware it is a "huge game" and his side "can't hide away from that".
- Robinson is braced for a battle: "Nobody knows St Mirren better than myself."
- He believes his squad have the grit to get out of their current predicament: "It goes without saying you have to win the fight before you can start to play your football."
- Robinson called for unity at Aberdeen and says he has several players with big-game experience, adding: "I am confident they will stand up."
- After calling out his players following the defeat to Rangers in Aberdeen's previous game, Robinson says there has been a lot of positivity around the place.
- He adds: "The players have been brilliant. They have been excellent, the response has been very very good."
- New signing Elvis Bwomono is available for a debut and there are no fresh injury concerns.
