Obviously his age is a risk but just because he's 34 that doesn't mean hes automatically past it and he will be John Welsh MK II, look at James Coppinger, Neal Bishop, David Perkins, and to a lesser extent Kevin Ellison and even Danny Whittaker when he played in non league, all late 30s but still do a job.

If he did join us I wonder whether this would be a sort of Sam Russell signing. Could be Jolley is exploring different ways of expanding the non-playing staff? Could be Jones would be seen as a player coach. Complete speculation of course on my part, but it would seem odd to sign a player who just like Welsh has basically not played football last season. Having said that he did make 20 starts out of his 27 Championship appearances in 2017-18. Mostly in the first half of the season, since Wednesday changed manager in December 2017 he has been out the side essentially. So it might be different to Welsh, could be the new manager (at the time Jos Luhukay) did not fancy him. https://www.transfermarkt.co.u.....1#gesamt (for a detailed view of his playing stats).

Difficult to find a positive comment from Owls fans. 'horrendous' and 'Burnley had our pants down' are typical comments. We already have one midfielder who has not played for a year. If MJ thinks that knowing him from a previous club is insurance then it would not have the 'ring' of confidence for me. |

Ah, I was not aware of such positive feedback from the Wednesday fans.  |

Wednesday are 2 league's above us... if they had any of our players, they would get labelled the same. I've seen him play a few times actually, and he is/was a very good footballer |

Was is probably the correct tense. |

Based on what? Disley still played for us at 35, and his career never went higher than league 1. Jones has never been lower than league 1... around 250 games in championship, over 100 in the premiership.... yet we are still writing him off because of the Welsh signing... |

My Wednesday supporting mates don’t really have a positive word to say….but then Rotherham fans were all telling us how terrible Danny Collins was when he came to us.
He was probably older (?) than Jones when he first signed with us and at least in those first two seasons did a really good job for us, as well as seemingly being a good character in the dressing room.
Let’s see eh.

Here's what he said to me
Oh Grimsby Grimsby
Whatever will be will be
You'll follow then faithfully
Oh Grimsby Grimsby
Tell me Mam me Mam
I dont want no tea no tea
I'm watching the Grimsby
Tell me Mam me mam |

Took me nearly 5 years to get that one. |
