I think that's the point. Jones at least left with dignity, unlike that pair. Rightly or wrongly, fans do tend to feel a bit sore if a player opts to sign for a club that's basically on the same rung of the ladder when they could have stayed instead, but ultimately he fulfilled the terms of his contract with us and left with minimal fuss, so personally I don't have a problem with him. (Kevin Phillips actually left in the same kind of circumstances, and we were a lot worse off for his departure, but he doesn't get any stick for it!)
