However, with results arguably getting worse and no new manager in sight, fans have called for his removal before relegation becomes a real possibility.Read more: Aberdeen fans rage after confirmed next manager newsAberdeen continue to sink under Peter LevenLeven’s caretaker spell at Aberdeen has been full of misfortune.The 42-year-old has now overseen nine matches in charge since Thelin’s sacking, winning three.

However, this looks to be tested this season.After the 1-0 defeat to Falkirk, the match that proved to be Thelin’s last game, the Dons were 12 points off 11th, and only two points off sixth.Yet, as it stands, they are only now seven points from safety, and a whopping 10 points from sixth just seven matches later.With 11 matches still to be played, if this run continues, there is every chance Aberdeen could be dragged into the relegation playoff zone.However, it remains to be seen if Leven can turn things around or if a permanent appointment will be made to save the club from a potential drop into the second tier.
