Career
Born in Wordsley, Dudley, West Midlands, Jones is a product of Wolverhampton Wanderers' academy, and has been with the club since he was 10 years old, signing a professional contract in January 2005.[1] He made his debut for Wolves in a 2–0 defeat at Plymouth Argyle on 1 April 2006 and later made a string of appearances in the first half of the 2006–07 season but did not feature again in the New Year.[2]
In August 2007, he joined League One club, Northampton Town on loan until January 2008,[3] where he became a regular first choice, and so had his loan extended until late January. He returned to his parent club after this spell but after managing just one substitute appearance for Wolves, he was allowed to return on loan to Sixfields in March 2008 until the end of the season.[4]
He joined League One Oldham Athletic on a month's loan in October 2008 after signing a new contract with Wolves until Summer 2010.[5] He scored on his debut to help Oldham to a 4–0 victory over Hereford United and also picked up the Man of the Match award.[6] His loan was subsequently extended to run until 3 January 2009,[7] but he returned to Wolves with a knee injury a week early.[8] Once recovered, he again returned to the Latics.
He joined League Two Notts County on loan in September 2009 until January 2010 with a view to a permanent move.[9] Despite news that the deal would be made permanent,[10] Jones returned to his parent club at the conclusion of his loan. In February 2010 he signed for Bristol Rovers on an initial one month loan,[11] which was subsequently extended until the end of the season.[12]
After it was announced he would not be offered a new deal at Wolves,[13] he signed for League One side Sheffield Wednesday in a three-year deal on 11 June 2010.[14]
