Ipswich Town - Permission to Speak with Jack Ross

[Hambud 3,137]

In all fairness they were looking to buy the club. Thank God it fell through. 

In fairness Ipswich are thinking about JR. I'll thank God when he says he's staying.

I take it Div is a source of reliable info around these parts? If you was to put on a scale, 1 being - Div has no clue to 10 being - Div knows his stuff and is always pretty much bang on, where would you put his latest info on the scale? (Ross being here possibly before the weekend)

 

Cheers. 

End of the day I never post things like this just for the hell of it.

Fair play.  Sorry to sound as if I was doubting you (didn't intend for it to be like that).

If anyone needs more info on Jack Ross, the Dundee Courier did an in-depth piece on him last summer, just before he took over at Dens Park:

That's what I find so funny about it 

The poor f**ker must have been so convinced it was happening to have spent all that time on that.

Odds are 1/4 Jack Ross.  Whatever that means.  I take it to mean that he is now clear favourite.

Usually a club will make a statement regarding speculation about an employee of the club. Nobody at SMFC did that.  All we know is based on hearsay and rumors and tidbits...If it wasn`t for div and the like we wouldn't`t know anything. And we still have no official word....silence from May 10th to 16th.

Fair enough - just thought there was supposed to be more transparency with fan ownership.

 I`m not a fan of refreshing Twitter every 2 minutes and relying on teasers for information!!!

 

I don't think clubs should be providing a running commentary on the negotiations. When something concrete happens - they'll say.

Club official channels should be reserved for facts rather than opinions and speculation.

He also went to 1/10 with a couple of bookies last night.

Div's Interview with East Anglian Times now on line giving a run down on Jack Ross for their readers.  Interesting stuff.

"He used the loan market pretty well and brought a few in. He didn’t go outside the UK much and brought in one player from Norway (Pal Fjelde) who didn’t play all that much. It was really Jack using his contacts in and around Scotland, although Jack did bring some up from down south as well."

How can you remember Fjelde but not mention Stelios 

Not meaning that to sound rude, very accurate in his descriptions of Jack.

What the feck's Div doing.  When they wanted info on JR, he should have referred them to TopCat.

If he had done that they wouldn't offer him a job selling Programmes.

Don't think he's ready yet for a big club.

Thought not. Almost did the John McInroe thing. ...You cannot be serious.    Jim deserves to be in the frame but IMO unlikely to be appointed this time around.
