Dibbles old paperboy 4,597 Report post Posted October 15, 2016 (edited) He talks a lot more sense after the game than shull does. i like that they are doing a mini-preseason next week to top up fitness levels and work on things due to the Morton game being postponed. Jack Ross might not have been my first pick to give the St Mirren job to, but I've agreed with most of what he has said since being given the job.

Stuart Dickson 4,265 Report post Posted October 15, 2016 For me it wasn't revealing, or interesting in any way. Don't get me wrong I don't think these things are supposed to be, but it just sounds like Jack Ross has swallowed a book of dull platitudes and with his Britney Spears croak and his propensity to talk too much I'm fast finding him a reason not to listen.

I'm going to take a punt here. If it had been Stephen Kenny in that video as opposed to Jack Ross, and he'd said what Ross had, word for word, you'd have claimed it was an excellent, inspirational interview. Go on, deny it, ya big puddin'! 3 smcc, Stu and saintnextlifetime reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Go on, deny it, ya big puddin'! No. If he'd said the same thing I'd have accused him of doing a boring interview particularly if he too kept croaking like Britney. However, given his actual record, if Stephen Kenny had been appointed I think he'd be far less likely to be talking after yet another defeat Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
northstbuddie 1,007 Report post Posted October 16, 2016 We can't all be perfect and have all the answers like you Stuart (and even Stephen Kenny). Have some sympathy for the rest of us (especially Jack Ross). Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Have some sympathy for the rest of us (especially Jack Ross). I'm simply stating my opinion. Managers that have bored me in interviews aren't precluded from success. Alex Smith was so dull I found him impossible to listen to yet he's won major trophies at St Mirren, Aberdeen and at Falkirk. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
shull 27,801 Report post Posted October 16, 2016 Neilson, Pressley, McInnes, Rodgers, Warburton, Ross and there are many more. All cliche ridden boring as hell Managers.

You are becoming even more unreasonable than I thought possible. I have had you on ignore for along time but I am forced to read some of your biased posts when they are quoted by others. Others have questioned your mental health but I am concerned about your hearing if you thiink that Jack Ross sounds like Britney Spears as his voice is at least an octave below hers. Can you tell us what your voice sounds like? 2 paul torfason and saintnextlifetime reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Mid a bit worried about saying this. The manager has taken over a team who clearly are not good enough. My question is how is Gordon Scott going to address this. I'm willing to add bit more to my subscription to help the manager, is Gordon. If not I will pull out of fan ownership. A clear out is needed in January let's see who has balls. 1 Bud the Baker reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Dibbles old paperboy 4,597 Report post Posted November 2, 2016 Will there still be more positives than negatives after a 3rd straight defeat where we have conceded 7 goals and scored 1 and picked up 0 points since Ross took over? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It's still all down to AR seemingly. Looking like the gamble on a young manager could backfire, although, as has been said, not quite sure why we gambled. No easy for JR to come in and make us world beaters but you would have hoped some semblance of organisation would have given some hope. November is an important month...............get the Christmas shopping done on Saturdays before the Christmas rush. 2 davidg and whydowebother reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
