How Nathan Jones Turned Southampton’s Collapse into Charlton’s Championship Surge—The Untold Story
Speaking to the media at Wembley following his side’s 1-0 win over Leyton Orient, Jones was given several opportunities to reflect on his up-and-down journey to this point. He did not pass them up.
“I’ve always taken bold jobs,” the Welshman declared. “In every job I’ve taken, the club has been in turmoil. When I first went to Luton, they were 18th in League Two. They ended up in the Premier League. When I went back to Luton, they were bottom of the table, seven points adrift with nine games to go. We stayed up. When I went to Stoke City… don’t even get me started on that. Then when I went to Southampton, they were on a downward spiral for a long time. So, I’ve taken on some real tough jobs, and backed myself.” Call him Mr Muscle, because he loves the jobs you hate.
