The big defender is proud of his side's efforts in establishing themselves as the country's main challengers to Celtic and has warned Mark Warburton and his players that they are not about to roll over and allow the Old Firm to go back to dominating the title race.

Considine believes that Dons boss Derek McInnes has helped restore the respect his club once enjoyed under the leadership of Sir Alex Ferguson and missing during a lean period before his arrival three years ago.

And the lifelong Dons player looks forward to hostilities with Rangers recommencing and is confident the Dons can continue to make progress.

"With Rangers coming back in, it is going to be a very hard league next year,” he said. "We are looking forward to it.

"I think we will certainly put them in their place when they come back up; we are looking forward to it.

"It is like European nights here when Rangers and Celtic come up. It is a great thing to be a part of.”
