Just a handful of the players that Jones brought in who either went on to be successful for the club or increased in value over their time here.
Sure he made a few bad signings but he was bound to considering that up until his last few seasons he was working with a shoestring transfer budget.
Not only did Jones make a lot of money for this club in transfer fees, he consistently kept us towards the top half of the Championship table in doing so.
I'm not saying he didnt make mistakes, what manager doesnt? But i'll always be grateful for what he did for the club and the great times we had under him.

Not all but we move on.What is dissapointing though is that the signs are Malkys starting to get the same grief after one match into the season.Its no wonder they pay little attention to whats said on message boards.
