QUESTION TIME: Which SPL ground did DJ least like?

NEIL McCALL from Bishopton asks DJ: What was the away ground that you hated going to as a player?

Derek Johnstone did not enjoy much success at Pittodrie, especially when Sir Alex Ferguson was in charge

For me, it was Pittodrie every time. I only won there twice in 13 years. We tried everything – going up on the Friday, going up on the Thursday, going to St Andrews on the Wednesday and then on to Aberdeen, but it was always a tough, tough ground.

They always had a great time, a hostile crowd and when Sir Alex Ferguson was there, they were always well fired up for games against us.

Just email big Derek at dj@eveningtimes.co.uk and we'll print the answer alongside the question.
