Tony Docherty
“We travel up to Pittodrie tomorrow, which is a very tough venue to play at. Aberdeen have some very good players and they are on a good run of form now under Peter Leven. There is a really good feeling about the place. We realise what’s ahead of us and we realise it is a tough game against them, but we have done okay against Aberdeen this season. We need to go into the game with a sense of real confidence, some hunger and desire. Then, hopefully, that can give us the best opportunity to do what we need to do.”
Aaron Donnelly
“Without a doubt, it’s a big game. We know as a group what is at stake. We are very capable of a top six position and it is in our hands. We just need to go there and grab it. As a group, we aim to go there and get maximum points tomorrow.”
