Demented Zebra Posted February 13, 2018 Share Posted February 13, 2018 Jack would be NUTS to turn down such a chance I'm sure he will be off the championship is even better than our top league its also a quicker step into the land of milk and honey premiership. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is a proper gut punch. Barnsley are pretty abject but they're still in touch with survival. He's pulled off bigger turnarounds, I've heard. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The difference in tone here is what worries me: we never gave Dundee permission to talk (AFAIK). Why would this change now? Because Jack wanted permission this time? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even if they go down, he's not getting the blame, given the position they're in. It's a no-lose situation for him. I'm really fucked off about this. So, is it true that James Fowler is actually the tactical mastermind behind our success over the past 12 months? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Despite his Ton connections, I'd be having a quiet word to see if Livi's manager fancies a slightly different view of the game at the weekend. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Silvio Posted February 13, 2018 Share Posted February 13, 2018 Seriously, Barnsley are going down the analytics / moneyball route. I'm sure they have brought in Billy Beane as a consultant or something. That sort of thing strikes me as appealing to Jack. He's been brilliant, and I've got a nasty feeling about this. Spectacularly poor timing for us though. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Timing for us is not good our players love him which will affect them if he leaves. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I saw on Twitter that Stuart Gilmour thinks that they'll offer him 5 x his current salary if he moved. I imagine a heavy bunce if they avoid the drop as well... It will be interesting to see how this pans out. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah. Love the guy to bits but he's got Alloa performing at precisely the level you would expect them to. Oh, and you coming on here and not telling us all this is complete bollocks has confirmed, for me, that we need to be worried. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It doesn't take much to avoid relegation in the SPL - Danny Lennon and Gus McPherson both managed it a number of times, and have hardly set the managerial heather on fire since. All you really need to do is not give the job to Tommy Fucking Craig. 100% of the managerial appointments that our current BoD has made have been an astounding success, so I'm sure we'll figure something out. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Colkitto Posted February 13, 2018 Share Posted February 13, 2018 Money talks...he'll take it if offered. Even if he was a disaster in England he would still walk into a job here, as the English clubs have more money than sense and demand instant success. Sometimes managers need time, but they don't get that in England. Some good managers have been sacked as paying compensation is no problem. Even if he was sacked at the end of this season he would still walk away with a handsome some of money knowing he still has a good reputation here in Scotland 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
geo87 Posted February 13, 2018 Share Posted February 13, 2018 Most saints fans would like to think that Ross will want to see this job through (ie at least get us up and possibly 1 season in top league), but in reality, if you’re getting a potential pay increase of 5x your current salary it’s going to be a hard one to turn down.Nervous as f**k about this! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Champions Erect Posted February 13, 2018 Share Posted February 13, 2018 Agreed.He is going to be linked with jobs that come up, this is a bit more concerning than when Dundee came sniffing but my gut feeling is he won't leave when he is a few more wins away from a title. He'll get more offers in the summer and we'll more likely than not lose him. His cv will bump its self up in 2 months time all being well so no need for him to gamble with his career just yet. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
