elvis Posted February 15, 2018 Share Posted February 15, 2018 One thing I am sure off is that most of us don't think he will be here next season and I am cool with that just hope he stays to see us over the line first. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
glenburn bud Posted February 15, 2018 Share Posted February 15, 2018 There is no loyalty in football aside from fans who will always support their team. Managers and players are making a living in what is effectively a short career, they don't owe clubs anything as when it goes the other way clubs will drop managers and players like a stone. If he stays and sees it out to the end of the season then great, but if he goes then good luck to him he's been brilliant for us. Get Robbie Neilson in to the end of the season. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
elvis Posted February 15, 2018 Share Posted February 15, 2018 (edited) Looks like he's off. The Board have been meeting all morning they would not be doing that if he was staying in my opinion. Edited February 15, 2018 by elvis 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Board have been meeting all morning they would not be going that if he was staying in my opinion. They might be meeting to discuss a compensation figure, or they might be meeting to weigh up how much they can offer him to see out the season, with a new contract incorporating a get out clause from the summer onwards, if we go up. Let's wait and see what comes out before we get too despondent. Whatever happens, i'm sure they have a plan going forward. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Szamo's_Ammo Posted February 15, 2018 Share Posted February 15, 2018 An experienced, esteemed and respected broadcaster like Chick Young isn't going to reveal the phone call he had with Jack Ross without JR's say so. Clearly Ross wants to go if he is pushing Chick to reveal this to the masses. He must be quite confident of being offered the job. Anyway, who do the Maureens want to replace him? Ray McKinnon? John Hughes? 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Demented Zebra Posted February 15, 2018 Share Posted February 15, 2018 Jack being offered the highest ever salary in Saints history. Obviously that' a counter offer. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tell you what, if he turns Barnsley down he will be hailed as the greatest ever Saint. Until he goes to The Rangers in the summer What if he's just used Barnsley's interest to get a better contract out of St Mirren? We knew he was mercenary - we've known that since he was a player. I don't have an issue with it, btw. I've used interest from other employers in the past to negotiate pay rises. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jamie_M Posted February 15, 2018 Share Posted February 15, 2018 Probably wouldn't even touch the sides of the offer down there, not to mention any potential keep them up bonus. Sounds like he is seriously considering going. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We knew he was mercenary - we've known that since he was a player. I don't have an issue with it, btw. I've used interest from other employers in the past to negotiate pay rises. Aye then we'll treat him the way we treat cup winning goal scorer Ian Ferguson [emoji23].Maybe, it has certainly spooked the fans and probably the board. The interest seems genuine though. He would be due a pay rise if we get promoted anyway.We need to keep him till the summer. Nothing personal against James Fowler but even though we are close to winning the league I just don't trust anyone else to get us over the line 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think he'll want to finish the job here first. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It won't, but might be enough to tempt him to stay til the summer, knowing there will no doubt be more interest, with other lucrative offers coming his way. Indeed there is already interest according to some, from big clubs up here. All up to Jack now, and I think he'll stay on. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bring Back Paddy Flannery Posted February 15, 2018 Share Posted February 15, 2018 A tweet that gets a certain number of retweets will convince him to stay, you don't need to give him more dough. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
