Rob Jones
Squad Number:12
Height:6.7
Weight:12.8
Date of birth:03/11/1979
Place of birth:Stockton
Position:Defender
Nationality:English
Transfer Fee:Free
Signed:28/07/2004
Under Contract:End of 2005-06
Previous Clubs:Macclesfield (l)
Stockport
Gateshead
Nickname(s):Jonah
League Two Class:Limited first team appearances for Stockport mean Jones was largely an unknown quantity when he arrived at Blundell Park.
Fishy Verdict:A lanky awkward beanpole of a central defender, who played poorly for most of last season, except in the final few matches, where he was oddly outstanding. With a better 'keeper behind him this year, could Jones continue his form of the end of last season into the new campaign?
Quote:Stockport fan: "He was a SCHOOLTEACHER before he signed for us! He should definitely stick to that! Lazy, runs like a gazelle, can't mark, poor in the tackle, looks lost on the pitch, can't pass for toffee!"
