Ross has played a blinder and for St Mirren's benefit.
He thinks Samson is a top goalie.
He gave him an extended Contract
Ross , who rates Sammy highly will make him his first signing for Sunderland.
Meaning, we get a transfer fee, say, around 100k.
Win Win all round.
Jack gets his man.
We get shot of a poor keeper and money in the Bank.
Result.
