Aberdeen were outstanding and especially new signings Willo Flood and Barry Robson who ran the show in the centre of the park. Johnny Hayes grabbed the first ever goal of the SPFL and was closely followed by debutant Willo Flood who glanced a header into the net.
McInnes was delighted by Aberdeen's performance:
“First and foremost, getting the three points was the most important thing. All week we’ve been itching to go and agitated to get in amongst it.
“We wanted so badly to get off to a winning start, and I
felt there was a push for that from the support, people who work at the club,
and the directors.
“We did that, and I thought we did it with a bit of style.
We showed enormous passion and energy, and that was transmitted from the crowd
as well.
“They were vocal when we needed them to be, and hopefully
the 13,000-plus will be there when we play at Pittodrie again.”
McInnes agreed his side should have had more goals, though,
adding: “We cut them open, and had a lot of good play at times.
“We’ve only ourselves to blame for not scoring more. Craig
Samson’s had a couple of good saves, but none that you would think he shouldn’t
be making.
“I’m not going to be too critical, but we should have been
out of sight by half-time.
“The scoreline made the game sound closer than it was, and
if the players can put in that level of performance most weeks, I think we’ll
be there or thereabouts.”
