Great start for Jackson 

Jackson has done his chances of landing the full-time role no harm following their win at the Stadium of Light.

He has made no secret of the fact he would like to throw his name into the hat for the job.

The 39-year-old has said, as per a report by London News Online: “I’ve made no secret of my ambitions to manage this football club. While I’m afforded that opportunity, I have to deliver a team that is going to put in performances and wear that shirt with pride.”
