Jones extends Cobblers loan
Thursday 3rd January 2008, 11:26AM GMT.
Wolves youngster Daniel Jones has had his loan spell at Northampton Town extended until January 25.
Jones has been at Sixfields since July and Northampton moved quickly when the original loan deal expired at the turn of the year.
Mick McCarthy had said that Jones would be returning to Wolves but has granted an extension to the loan.
The 21-year-old left back or left winger has impressed since joining the Cobblers.
Wolves boss Mick McCarthy said: “Stuart Gray asked if they could keep Dan a bit longer.
“He couldn’t be involved with us because he is cup-tied so we agreed he could stay until the end of the month.”
Northampton boss Gray added: “We are delighted that Daniel will be staying here and I would like to thank Mick McCarthy.
“I am sure this will benefit all concerned. Daniel has been gaining experience and has done very well for us and I know he has been enjoying his football.
“We are very pleased he will be here for a while longer.”
Jones will stay with Northampton until after the 25 January clash with Leyton Orient.

Stupid! Have him back – we’re crying out for left sided players
Report abuse
But staffswolf – he might threaten Ward’s starting position so why would MM have him back?
Report abuse
no2,you’ve hit the nail on the head there.after all he’s the find of his carrear,which means he’s better than kightly!go & see a doctor mick!

I thought he was coming back???????????
MM, are you seriously looking for another job or something……..?

Given our current freefall, maybe a recall is not too far away!

When you read the statements from the manager and Moxey makes you relise why sane people will start to stay away, just wait till summer when the season tickets are up for sale, we will then be the best supporters in the land and there will be millions to spend

I DNT UNDERSTAND WHY PEOPLE ARE SLATING WARD! I THINK THE LAD IS GETTING BETTER AND BETTER IN THAT ROLE. GIVE THE KID A CHANCE! HE IS A BETTER WINGER THAN HE IS A STRIKER AND WHEN GOALKICKS ARE TAKEN HE IS THE ONE THAN WINS NEARLY EVERYONE AIMED AT HIM! LETS JUST CONCENTRATE MORE ON THE OTHER BELOW PAR PLAYERS OR BETTER STILL GET BEHIND THE TEAM AND HELP THEM ALL IMPROVE!THINK THAT MAY BE TOO MUCH FOR ALOT OF WOLVES ‘SUPPORTERS!’

It would have been a good opportunity to give Jones a run out in the cup game against Cambridge, as he was due back on the 5th Januray. But then again he would have threatened Stephen Ward’s place on the left wing, one of Mick’s best ever finds!
What’s the betting that he also starts with Elliot this Saturday? Another of his favourites. The cup game is an ideal game to give players like Mark Davies ago.
But Mick knows what he is doing!
I wish we all!!!

Ledbury Wolf:
Who have you been watching, the guy disappears inside and then there’s no one to go down the wing.
Fair enough he does the best he can but he aint a winger and certainly not better than Jarvis or Jones.
Maybe if we stuck him in the middle he might score a few goals.

ledbury wolf im just fed up of getting behind the team now. we all go to the games and we all get behind the team and then we all realise that we are watching the same rubbish as before. we are going down the league and MM will not chnage the team and bring in players who would put heart and soul into playing 90mins cause they want to play every week. at the moment there are too many players who know that no matter what they will start week after week and get paid not too bad either. we are into the transfer window now and all i can see happening is that we get some more irish players in and more along the lines of elliott. i like ward and yes he has done ok out on the left but we have better natural left sided players who dont get to play. also what ever happened to given youth a chance i thought that really got the fans behind the team now all we do is buy in a player instead of the ones we have spent time developing.

Stephen Ward is not good enough. That is not his fault. How Mick can say he is his greatest ever find is beyond belief! Daniel Jones showed a lot of promise and now with a bit more experience under his belt he could well be an asset in that left sided role. Mick, you have got until the end of the Season as far as I am concerned!
Report abuse
Frankly I have no idea what Mick is trying to do anymore and this weekend could be every bit as humiliating as the Chorley fiasco 20 years ago. Would SM stand for that ? Let’s hope not!

Wokker 8,
I agree with your sentiments of getting jones back but he could not have played in the FA Cup as he is suspended.
Now back to the topic in hand, I just cannot believe we are letting Jones stay for another month when a couple of weeks ago MM stated that he was coming back after having had 5 months valuable first team experience.
I hate to say this but as each day goes by it becomes more and more clear that the South Bank chant against Sheffield Utd rings truer!
“you don’t know what you’re doing!”

Cant believe we’re still arguing amongst ourselves, whilst the fat controller and mindless mick drive nail after nail into WWFC…
oh dear.
its not all doom and gloom. we are financially stable, and certainly capable of surviving in the Champs indefinitely. We will find and endless supply of mediocre managers and players wishing to play for us, and there will always be the loyal Wolves fan who shows up game after game, to pay to watch that drivel.
I just think we are all confused/angered at what on paper is a formula for success, pans out as perpetual mediocrity.
Mick you need to admit you havent a clue, and moxey, i think morgan needs to put you on a results based pay packet, that might get you to keep your trap shut.

What happened to recalling him for Jan 4?
Report abuse
this really beggars believe, agree with comment sabove he should be given a go in the starting line up in the cup game – he can’t do any worse than others and should begiven a go. he would be really hungry and ready to make a point
Report abuse
proof that he doesnt know what he is doing.

#8 – Wokker – would he not have been cup-tied anyway?
I have to admit, I thought we would be having him back to help us out – can’t see fresh legs making things any worse at the moment – does this mean we are going to see a new left sided player come in I wonder?
Report abuse
Maybe we are signing a left sided player so he thinks Jones is not needed now?
Report abuse
VERY FAIR POINT MADE BUT I HAVE WATCHED HIM PLAY EVERY GAME THIS SEASON AND WARD IS GETTING BETTER, THE PROBLEM THAT THE TEAM IS HAVING IS THAT THEY GET A BETTER RECEPTION FROM FANS AT AWAY GAMES! ITS JUST DISGUSTING HOW HOME FANS THINK THEY CAN SLATE THE TEAM LIKE THAT! WE HAVE BEEN WINNING AND IF A BAD PASS IS MADE THE TEAM GET BOOED AND GEERED OFF! I HAVE A BIT OF ADVICE FOR ABOUT 80% OF THE HOME FANS IF YOU AINT GOING TO SUPPORT THE TEAM DURING A HOME GAME SIMPLY DONT COME, THE TEAM WILL BE BETTER OFF WITHOUT YOU. THEY AINT GUNNA GET BETTER IF THEY ARE BEING SLATED ALL THE TIME!

our official site said he was coming back??? now he is staying for another month??? WHY???
we need players like DJ to add some more life into a very stale squad, it scares me just how much we miss Kites?? he is practically a one man show, wew have looked awful without him.
QPOR are buying like mad and what are we doing??? not a lot it seems…go on Mick and Jez surprise mw

NOW I BET EVERYONE OF THE FANS WHO HAVE BEEN BOOING THE TEAM ARE GUNNA HIDE AWAY NOW AND MAKE OUT THEY ARE BEHIND THE TEAM! DONT EVEN BOTHER YOU KNOW WHO U ARE, SORT YA LIFE OUT, IF U AINT GUNNA HELP AND CHEER THE BOYS ON THEN YOU KNOW WHERE THE HAWTHORNES IS!

DO WE HAVE ANY OTHER NAMES LINKED WITH US?? AMEOBI,ERNIE,HOOLIHAN,LEDLEY………………… COULD DO WITH A FEW MORE TO GET THE OLD EXCITEMENT FACTOR BACK AROUND THE PLACE!

One question on my mind , Is Wolves ready for the premiership yet, sure the guys are young and getting experience , I personally feel mick is trying to build but I wonder at all whether he wants promotion yet, if for some miracle we did get promoted (play off’s) we would not be good enough and would get slaughtered so building whilst getting a season in this league maybe the intentions ie Baggies getting stronger gelling more as a team.
I dunno we’ll have to see what the intentions are like in the tranfer market . Slightly sarcastic how many Irish players become available.
Report abuse
Seems a strange one bearing in mind Mick said last week that he’d be returning. Maybe it means a left-sided player is on the verge of signing. Fingers crossed…
Report abuse
The reason is that he’s cup tied, so theyre keeping him till end of jan.
Report abuse
Ledbury. Your consistant use of Caps lock is very frightening, but YES It is frustrating how fickle we are as fans, a few wins and were right back in it and they’ll all switch sides once more.
Report abuse
26 is so right, we are keeping him there for month as he cant play in 1game for us? STUPID OR WHAT
as said above maybe we have signed someone. but i very doubt it
i thought combination of jones left wing and gray left back would be great. gray likes to attack like naylor used to, so jones could help defend unlike ward does.
also i remember him being good at set pieces, a guy we currently require
good move mick NOT
wonder which irish or ex sunderland left winger coming in??
mark kennedy as the irish connection?

Paul Ince Manager of Month-MK Dons flying high scoring at will. SM he will be snatched up sooner, rather than later. The decision to perservere with mediocrity is a disgrace. DJ did nothing wrong last seaseon and I would have liked him to have kicked on this season and battle for a place. There are too many favs and it is getting very annoying. At least it’s the first time I have heard a player booed ON to the pitch and was not surprised. Thanks for last yr but enough is enough. We have all payed good money and it is TOTAL “Albion” at the minute.
Is the Korea job still open?

so what if his cup tied, thats one match and the way we are performing it will be the end of our cup run anyway. After saturday dont we need him mick or is it back to your favorites, mick you are an idiot and this prooves you dont know what your doing,

APOLOGIES FOR THE CAPS! PEOPLE HARDLY READ THE LOWERCASE COMMENTS! better?? can you guys see what i mean tho?? would you wanna play for a team that get more stick from there own fans than the opposition supporters?? we are not going to get anywhere until we ‘the supporters’ make an effort to help cheer on the boys!

Can only think Ledley is in the pipeline otherwise it makes no sense. The boy’s been doing well.

I agree with you comments, its nice to see sensible constructive comments, I think we all agree we aren’t doing aswell as we would like but the constant slagging of players, the manager and Jez Moxey does more harm than good.
I better be careful what i say because if you try and make sensible balanced comments on this site you get accused of being a Sandwell Town fan.
