Aberdeen manager Craig Brown is annoyed his team waited until they were trailing before upping their game.

The Dons lost 2-0 at home to Kilmarnock, meaning they have still only won twice at Pittodrie in the league this season.

"The Aberdeen team is a fight-back team - that's what's annoying me," Brown told 91�ȱ� Scotland.

"I keep saying to them, 'why do we wait until adversity strikes until we fight back so bravely?'"

The game changed on the stroke of half-time when Aberdeen goalkeeper Jamie Langfield was red-carded for bringing down Kilmarnock's Borja Perez in the box.

Brown refused to comment on that decision.

Liam Kelly stepped up to convert the penalty and added a second late on.

"The home form's been problematic - there's no doubt about that," said Brown.

"With seven top-team players out, it's a very difficult assignment to play midweek, raise your game to the level we did at Motherwell and maintain that with a team which is not as experienced as it could be if everyone were fit."

However, the Dons boss is sure better form is just around the corner.

"We're only a hair's breadth away from getting onto a good run," he added.

"I'm optimistic that when we get all our guys fit, and hopefully we'll get some points before then, we can go on an unbeaten run."
