We need to find away to fix our travel sickness
Sunday Mail

JIMMY THELIN has long-term plans for Aberdeen but knows it is a short-term fix he needs to keep them in the fight for third spot.
The Pittodrie side head to Rangers today as they look to close the gap to Hibs.
But they will need a sharp turnaround in their fortunes on the road if they are to do that.
Their away record has hindered them, with just five wins on their travels and failing to beat any team in the top six on their own patch.
And with two of their last three games away from home, that is something they will need to address over the coming six days.
Dons boss Thelin stated: “There are tough games in this league, I don’t know the away records of other clubs because I am focused just on Aberdeen.
“But it’s something we have to change and we can change it.
“We need to think about it during our preparation for next season. But right now, we have to do something about it in the short-term.
“If we want to close the gap we have to do better away from home, that is clear.”
Aberdeen have always enjoyed big backing from the Red Army on their road trips but have still only managed two away wins since September.
