Janik: I really, REALLY wish that your Chris Jones was the same Chris Jones that played for Spurs in the late 1970s and hit the post with five minutes to go for St Albans in a league match at Yeovil in about 1988 in front of a crowd of 6,000 (Yeovil were playing QPR in the FA Cup and tickets were on sale). Bald on top, but a flowing mane, that Chris Jones.

But it isn't. He must be about 55 now.

Not he, this Chris Jones is an 18-year old on a six-month loan from Swansea.

It's not inconcievable he might be Chris Jones junior, though.

It's a pleasing idea.

I've just had a look at the top of the Conference. Cambridge should come through the teams above them, shouldn't they? There's some very ropey looking teams at the top of that table at the moment.

Don't know if this has been noticed, but the Wycombe board let all season ticket holders in for free, including Shrewsbury STH. Town brought 190 fans down, which is pretty good on a cold Tuesday night from Salop to Bucks. The overall crowd was 1,730 - unsure how that fares with the rest of the JPT games? Pretty weak considering they're doing well this year.

There are only 14 points between the top of the Conference and the relegation zone, which means that just about anyone (even, possibly, Oxford) could challenge for the title if they get a good run going. Even Altrincham aren't fourth from bottom, which shows what a topsy-turvy season this is turning out to be.

Stan Ternent was pleased with Huddersfield's response to going down to 10 men despite suffering Johnstone's Paint Trophy defeat at Darlington.

"We are particularly disappointed last night. People are going through difficult times at the moment, this includes our supporters and their families. Despite this, their backing for the Club remains magnificent. It is important that the Club recognises this and also does not take this support for granted. In these circumstances we feel the right thing to do is offer the fans who travelled to Darlington and supported us their money back"

Talk about a vote of no-confidence!

Chris Jones played for us for a few years in the mid-80s too. Not the greatest of players but busy enough and with a penchant for the odd spectacular goals.

Is this also the JPT thread? I was sad enough to be at the Withdean last night - we were sort-of robbed in the shootout. Perhaps.

Well the players called up finished top of their u21 qualifying group - ahead of France and Romania - and face England in a play-off for Sweden 2009 on Friday night ... so more to do with the fact that we nurture young Welsh players really.
