There will be couple of wobbles on the way in any event, so we could well do without anything that could knock us even a little off course. I actually think the loss of our manager just now could derail us to some degree. That's why I'm very relieved that he will be staying.... Yeah that is fair mate. I suppose the flip side is that if Jack stays (and I still believe he will stay, did I mention that?) then it will give the whole club another nice lift just at the right time. His determination to see the job through has been a consistent mantra all season and I've no reason to think he won't do that. I don't expect him to be our manager for too much longer but I genuinely don't think this is the right move for him at this moment in time.

So we need succession planning. Scotland and Sevco, have shown what a car crash looks like when you don't have a plan........... Goody is raw, however, he knows the club, the fans like him and lets be honest, they should have beaten Brechin, also he has a great chairman at Alloa.......... He is raw, he will learn................. But he is my Plan B, Plan A is still with us My initial wish, in about September 2016, was for Jack and Goody to take over, with Goody as number 2 obviously. He now has a good 17/18 months under his belt in management, and is doing well - being third behind two full time outfits is nothing to be embarrassed about. I think Jim is a fine man, with St Mirren in his heart, and with the right guy by his side, could be a very good fit for us. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll be (very pleasantly) surprised if he is with us by the end of this year, but he is a smart operator and will be strategic when it comes to his career. The management climate in English football is even more fickle than it is up here. There is a huge amount at stake for JR in terms of his career. He'll do the right thing.

Hope this might allay any fears my fellow may or may not be experiencing .....

ged62 Posted February 15, 2018 Report Share Posted February 15, 2018 These moments are actually the only reason I keep the site going! It’s brilliant to have a proper discussion going on.Expect we will find out today one way or the other.My gut feel is that Jack will stay and finish the job. Please let this be true [emoji22].

A Source at St Mirren FC reports there is no doubt about it. We can all be 100% sure of that. When something happens it is 100% certain the St Mirren Board will react. On that front we can all be sure. Just don't ask me whats happening because I'm no sure but on the Jack Ross front Barnsley are holding talks with St Mirren's Jack Ross and Swansea City Under-23 boss Cameron Toshack as they look to appoint a new manager.

Drew Posted February 15, 2018 Report Share Posted February 15, 2018 Young Kyle Gunn has tweeted that this might not be resolved today. If that is accurate, it could be a case of Jack wanting the job, but Barnsley still interviewing today so they won't make a final decision until that process is completed.

Lord Pityme Posted February 15, 2018 Report Share Posted February 15, 2018 Just compo between clubs and personal terms to be agreed now it would seem. more importantly the real shortlist is in its infancy, we need a couple of other names..

Drew Posted February 15, 2018 Report Share Posted February 15, 2018 When all the dust settles on this, it will be interesting to know why permission seems to have been so readily granted for Barnsley to speak to Jack. Possibly a clause in his contract? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doubt there would have been an emergency board meeting called if Ross had said no. all Barnsley had to do was to agree to pay the compo clause in his contract before being allowed to talk to him.
