Sunderland supporters have laughed off Jack Ross' move to Newcastle United to work with the club's academy as they revelled in what they saw as a clear fall from grace.
Newcastle announced on Friday morning that Ross had arrived as the academy's interim Head of Coach Development on a "short-term basis". A club statement confirmed that he will work alongside Director Steve Harper to provide support to the Academy's coaching structure and players in the Under-9 to Under-16 age groups.
"Jack is a very experienced manager, coach and coach educator," Harper said following the arrival of Ross. "His knowledge and experience will be of huge benefit to us during his time here."
