Very good interview. No shirking responsibility from him and really want him to have the time to be successful. And vitally... best wishes to him and his missus for a great wedding 👍 I wonder if when they're married they'll move into a rented terrace in Shelton just to stick with the 'working class' vibe? Would you?

Top interview! Really warming to the guy, and I think we stand a great chance with NJ running the show. If it does actually go as well as he hopes, hanging onto him will be our biggest challenge..... Totally agree with that and I think if Brighton part with Hughton I could see them coming for Jones Let's pray for that.

I’m simply pointing out that over the last two seasons, Jones’s Luton side have been one of the highest scoring sides in the country, both in League 2 and in League 1. This side was put together by him. Your claim that Jones can’t spot talent is just complete and utter rubbish. Unless they managed to win back to back promotions and score nearly 100 goals each season with talentless hoofers that is.

Yes he did well but the top divisions require a whole new skill set, and to keep Afobe and get rid of Bojan does not bode well.

I see no reason why he can’t replicate what he did in the lower leagues in the Championship. Our hands our tied with Afobe, unless we’re willing to probably write off about 75% of why we paid for him he was always going to be here next season.

We'll see but I doubt Afobe will get a lot of game time next season and be loaned out in the window.He's been next to useless lately.
