    Yeah ask him and say please because if Joe or Darren Royle ask he probably won’t even answer his phone.

      Jones has no managerial experience but come on guys, he’s been the close right hand man at Wigan, Everton, Belgium and finally West Brom.
      I’m sure Jones has learned so much with his man management skills in his time with world class players.
      Not all make the cut granted but how will you know unless you give them a chance like Caldwell ?.

      Jones & De Zeeuw I say

      The list of assistants that have failed at the top job is pretty big. Means nothing.

        Met him in shop in Appley bridge last year and he said one day he would absolutely love to manage the club. Legend.

        If Cook is sacked I don’t see Jones being his replacement. Martinez was a Whelan man and Jones a Martinez man. Both no longer have anything to do with running the club. More likely to be someone who has history with Royle someone he trusts. Unless of course he does it himself.

        I think this is priceless.

        Graham Jones and Paul Cook played a similar number of games for Wigan.

        One is being given dog’s abuse at the moment on social media, whilst one is being proclaimed a club legend and would be welcomed home as a returning hero.

        This is the same hero was who was part of the management team that is still being ridiculed by some on this board – and even has a separate thread dedicated to it.

        I’ve seen on twitter that Martinez was the problem – not Jones: Jones just did as he was told by Martinez.

        On the other hand, Graham Barrow played almost as many games as Cook and Jones combined for Wigan, but was never welcomed back as a hero, and was also part of Martinez’s management team.

        But when things started to go wrong for Caldwell and Mackay, it was all Barrow’s fault.

        The fickle ways of the Wiganer eh?
