[edit] Career

Jones is a tall, strong defender who made impressive strides through the ranks at Hartlepool United in a relatively short period of time.[citation needed] He was spotted playing against the Club for Chester-Le-Street and did sufficiently well to warrant a trial.[citation needed] He was rewarded with a new contract at the start of the 2006–07 season. Jones was a regular for the reserves during the 2006–07 season.[2] He was released by Hartlepool in May 2007.[3]

He went on trial with York City at the end of the 2006–07 season and signed for the club on on 7 August 2007.[4][5] He joined Gateshead on a month's loan in November 2007.[6] This loan was extended for a further month in January 2008.[7] He was later released by York and joined Gateshead permanently.[8][9]
