TERRORS ALERT

Willie fears Dons play-off v United

- EWING GRAHAME

WILLIE MILLER admits he'll be watching Aberdeen's next 90 minutes through the cracks in his fingers as he fears play-off panic at Pittodrie.

The most successful captain in the club's history knows just how important tomorrow's clash with Ross County is.

Even more so when he contemplates a battle for top-flight survival against their old rivals Dundee United.

Dons are ninth in the table, two points ahead of St Johnstone and three in front of visting County.

A slip against the Highlanders could cost the managerless Reds dearly - and set them on course for a play-off fight against the Terrors, whose Championship title pursuit is proving a ding-dong battle.

County have been revived since Don Cowie replaced Derek Adams in the dugout at Dingwall, harvesting eight points from their last five fixtures while Aberdeen have taken just three.
