Physio Jones reveals he could have been sacked

Wayne Jones, the Hereford United physio sponsored by Bulls News, has revealed he wondered whether he would still be working at Edgar Street if he couldn't get goalkeeper Wayne Brown back in action when he was injured late in the Play-off final last Saturday.

"When Browny went down, I couldn't revive him for a while and I was panicking a little, not in respect of his injury but because we had already used our three subsitutes," Jones told the Hereford Times.

"Then he got to his feet and started wobbling about and I thought; 'Oh no - what if he lets one through his legs now. The gaffer will sack me tomorrow.'"

"But fortunately he did alright and was quite safe after that."

He commented that the game was a thriller and then cast doubt on the age of Guy Ipoua.

"And the old fellow up front, Guy, they don't know whether he's 30 or 45, came on with a great header!"
