The stadium is a five minute walk if that from the city centre, just across the Wearmouth bridge. Not bang in the middle of the city centre but damn near.

Ronnie Posted May 23, 2018 Report Share Posted May 23, 2018 Jack's reputation in Scotland is such that even if he is a complete failure at Sunderland he would still be one of the favourites for a Top Six job in Scotland although not the old firm nice job to fall back on with a few hundred thousand in the bank. McInnes relegated Bristol City and still got the Aberdeen job Jack could do the same. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

linwood buddie Posted May 23, 2018 Report Share Posted May 23, 2018 Jack should have told the club he had been in contact with Sunderland out of courtesy and respect if nothing else. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nah, they have one of their own, it’s full of the failed managers So, as Jack Ross is staying at St Mirren , why are we needing all these threads ?

Yorkshire.... forget WDWB... he's a troll on here. Jack has the potential to be a really top manager. He works well with players and fans. Very single-minded. Had a physically small squad in stature and in numbers. Likes to press high up the park and likes his team to play what most fans, including non St Mirren fans, think/ thought was attractive football. His record on signings improved as his budget increased. Don't expect him to hang around for too long. Sunderland are a big club I know, with a great, well situated Stadium and a big fan base. Our average crowds last season was 4447 and our stadium holds a maximum of 8023. Saints fans are passionate about their team just like the Makems. Your average crowds and stadium are much bigger than ours. Anyway. Should he be coming to you Then I think you are getting a good manager.

I can tell you're all extremely bitter and this probably wasn't a good idea.. You can expect a manager who will galvanise your club from players to fans and managment. In my opinion he’s destined for the top level. He’s been brilliant for us in the last two seasons, it’s been a miraculous turnaround in our fortunes. He’s not affraid of a challenge and he’s proved that he can build a squad from scratch, and crucially he’s not scared to make big decisions on team selections. There’s no sentiment with players who aren’t performing. You’ve bagged the best young manager in Scotland. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

YorkshireMackem Posted May 23, 2018 Report Share Posted May 23, 2018 What do you think Lewis Morgan's chances are at Celtic next season? I envisage an ambitious loan move from us, it could be a level too low for us to be considered however. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The club had been on a downward spiral for years with us destined for league 1. He managed to turn it all around and get us back in the PL in 18 months. It's a good appointment for you. Much better than some of the journeymen like McLaren some of the clubs in the English lower leagues keep appointing.
