Neil Warnock has been appointed as Aberdeen manager until the end of the season.
The 75-year-old takes over from Barry Robson, who was dismissed last Wednesday, with the club currently sat eighth in the cinch Premiership.
Warnock said: "I'm really looking forward to the challenge here at Aberdeen.
"I've made no secret of the fact I've always wanted to manage in Scotland so when I spoke to [chairman] Dave [Cormack] and [chief executive] Alan [Burrows] and they asked me to help out it just felt like the right opportunity.
"By all accounts there is a good group of lads here and it's my job now to get the best out of them.
"Aberdeen is a big club with clear ambition and I'm hoping that during my time here the supporters will get behind the team and I can put a smile on their faces."
