Dons striker preparing to face former club

Aberdeen's on-loan striker Nick Blackman is expecting stick as he prepares to face old club Motherwell for the first time. The Blackburn marksman spent the first half of the campaign on loan at Fir Park before joining Aberdeen in the January transfer window. Blackman should line up against Well on Tuesday and he insists he moved to remain under the guidance of Craig Brown and Archie Knox. "I have a lot of mates at Fir Park and they wished me luck when I first moved to Aberdeen," he explained. "However, I'm sure the wind-ups will start soon. "It was a tough call but the fact Craig and Archie had moved was the main factor. I enjoy working under them."
