Jack Ross (born
June 5,
1976) is a
Scottish professional
footballer who plays in defence and midfield for
Scottish Premier League club
Falkirk.
Ross had spells as a youth player at
Dundee United and
Forfar Athletic. He then moved to
Camelon, where he featured in their 1996
Scottish Junior Cup run, before losing in the final. He joined
Clyde in 1999, and he never looked back. He played in many different positions, but after a few months, the right-midfield slot was his.
Ross then signed a pre-contractual agreement with Hartlepool.

)However, things didn't go to plan as Ross got injured after suffering
ankle ligament damage
(External Link) and spent a large part of his time on the sidelines. Hartlepool funded his rehabilitation and also allowed him to return home. However, Ross refused to return to Hartlepool, train or play for the club and asked Hartlepool’s
chairman Ken Hodcroft to tear up his contract claiming his was "
homesick"
(External Link). However, Hartlepool refused and asked for
compensation and a refund of agent fees.
(External Link). Ross then left without consent and later went on sick
(External Link) and claimed that he wouldn’t return to Hartlepool even if "they were in the
Champions League".
(External Link). He also criticised Hartlepool manager
Neale Cooper for feeling let down by his actions, "Maybe the manager thinks I've let him down but that's nothing compared with how I feel about him."
(External Link) On July 31 2005, Hartlepool agreed to terminate his contract after finally receiving compensation, which included a refund of the fees paid to Ross’
agent.
(External Link).
He transferred to Falkirk, in 2005. Falkirk manager
John Hughes warned Ross when he stalled on signing a new contract.

On April 30th 2008 it was announced that Ross had signed a pre-contract agreement with current SPL rivals
St Mirren and will join them at the end of the season on a deal that will keep him at the
Paisley club for two years
