Jack Ross admits Celtic made Dundee United look like 'training ground dummies' but insists he WON'T walk away

Jack Ross admitted Dundee United were transformed into training ground dummies in a nine-goal hammering from Celtic. But the Tannadice boss insisted he’s determined to stay and fight to turn around the club’s fortunes despite the Hoops making history by inflicting the biggest away win in SPFL history on his hapless Tangerines.

Ross delivered a brutal assessment of the latest instalment to what has been a shambolic start to the season for his team and conceded the champions made his defence look as if they were frozen to the spot. He said: “We conceded goals that were akin to training-ground exercises against mannequins.

“That’s an accurate description. It’s not a good description to have against your team or players individually but that’s what it was like. In terms of me describing it, it was humiliating and embarrassing for me, personally and professionally - because of the pride you have in doing your job properly. The players should feel the same way.”
