Jones hits the ground running

Nathan Jones has told Richard Cawley hs is adamant he will make “ruthless decisions” on his Charlton Athletic squad this summer - and has vowed they will be competing higher up the table next season.

“We need to get better on every single level. We keep saying it, but two years ago the club was on an 18-game streak of not winning in League One. To come to where we are now is the stark reality. Now I have to make big decisions to take the club forward.”

“On Monday and Tuesday we have got individual player meetings with every single person at the football club.”

Presumably not the catering staff at Sparrows Lane?   But the proof of the pudding is very much in the eating.  Will the owners give Jones a big enough budget to improve?

I know: it's not my money that is being spent.  But there are times when you have to speculate to accumulate.
