Jones' Foul Language Slip-Up
After Charlton's victory, Jones was asked to summarize his team's performance. In his response, he accidentally dropped the f-bomb, saying, "We over-ran them, we f*****g… Sorry, we were aggressive in what we did and I'm really proud of the second half performance."
Fans Show Support for Jones
Despite the slip-up, Charlton fans have shown immense support for Jones since his arrival earlier this month. Many took to social media to praise his passion and hard work, with one fan noting the transformation of the team under his leadership.
Victory for Charlton
