BBC Jack Ross: Sunderland manager on his outlook to management

[Dilligaf60]

Rightly so. Has no excuses for this squad not being top 2 come the end of the season.

It’s no different to any other results based job mate. You don’t meet your KPIs you’re down the road. I’m pretty certain that in Donald’s mind the success of the club is more important to him than what’s involved in sacking someone. Donald will have a number of games in his head, what that is we can’t know. I’d love to see Ross get us firing and give a few teams a proper scudding, I’d love to see us getting at teams and playing on the front foot, particularly at home. Ross has the opportunity now to do this, if he does, great. If he doesn’t, well the outcome is inevitable.

So is that him saying this as as good as it gets with him?

 

[wigwams]

This. There are no third chances.

If we're not contending come Christmas and looking like having the second half of the season we've just encountered then a change is needed. Don't agree with the op. He's not bulletproof by any means.

That's because he won't get the sack.....Even if we struggle!

'I don't fear the sack' - Sunderland manager Ross

Speaking to BBC Scotland in January, Jack Ross explains how he did not fear becoming the latest manager to be sacked at Sunderland, a fate which befell him on Tuesday.

So as well as being dour, poor at motivation and getting players to work a system... he is now being an ostrich.... ie ignoring the sack coming his way

Couldn't agree more

He f***ing should

 

[Slow joe]

Some canny twisting of his words on this thread.

 

[mutley]

Well if that's his best he needs to be seen off ASAP.

 

[Dilligaf60]

Hope you're right but can't see it.....The clowns running the club love his conformity!

I think you’re wrong there. If he’s not where Donald thinks he should be pretty soon he’ll go the journey

 

[dangermows]

The Ross fears nothing but his nemesis, going for the victory.

 

[Freddie the Greek]

The blokes under pressure, but I think it's a bit of an embarrassing question for the reporter to ask him after one game.

You mean 60ish games, surely.

Nah. You highlight the organisations failure to provide adequate training, adequate systems and adequate processes to address any issues. Buys you plenty of time.

Might work in some companies or industries. Not in mine.

Well yes, he does need to be judged on that.

 

[sheepfarmer]

He's not said anything objectionable there tbf, he's not saying he shouldn't be sacked he's just saying what will be will be and he's not going to be affected by the thought of it.

Anything he says is objectionable to a lot on here. It’s beyond ridiculous

 

[stevo]

i think hes looking for a way out.. he knows hes out of his depth..

Agree ,ive said on loads of different threads he is trying to force us to sack him.We will know tomorrow with selection and formation.Hope I have to hold hands up and say I got this wrong

 

[Deleted member 43563]

Think we should get behind him and vice versa. Won't succeed otherwise.

 

[Secret Visage]

Good that he doesn't fear it, because carry on as per last season Jack and it's coming for you.

Some people are absolutely bonkers. Have you no idea at all how utterly ridiculous this post reads ?
