I can't help thinking it is in Hughton's interests to work with Jones, he can learn from him about the team, the players and so on. Jones can learn from the greater experience of the new man. A good manager in any field will look to the development of those under him or her.
I don't understand why we have to enter conspiracy theory, "threat to" and "marginalise" territory. Hughton is a decent bloke and a good operator by all accounts.

Well said DS. Since half time on Boxing Day he has restored pride in our club that has been missing since the Derby play-off game. I would have been happy to have him as first team manager but respect TB's decision and will throw my weight behind CH. That said, I won't forget what NJ has done for the club and I'm delighted that he's going to remain central to the coaching team. Never understood the abuse he got on NSC but hopefully that's all in the past now. Great post.

Jones really helped with telling Hyppia Kaz was a battling central midfielder. Useless

Four points in two games in charge; a two game unbeaten run; getting the team to play with more passion and commitment than had been seen in half a season under his predecessor .... that'll do for starters.

it was a fantastic night and such a relief to see the team selection , but i cant help feeling he got a bit lucky with JFC and Gardner not being available.What odds they would have both played if they could?

something clever
Nathan Jones..... He's been gone too long.
I think Nathan will be shrewd enough to realise he could learn a fair bit from CH in the next year or two.
The one thing you can guarantee is that no football manager stays in post forever - they either get sacked or get poached (both have happened to CH in recent past)
Whenever one of the above happens to CH - assuming Mr Jones is still with us, to me he will be very likely to get the managers role having a few years experience behind him
Monday's substitutions and tactics to me seemed much like Micky Adams first time around, get ahead, change to fresh forward players, stretch the game a bit, get a bigger lead and win

Well if he's going to be poached anyway, it might be a good idea not to sack him first for gross misconduct but not say what it is.

Put simply, Nathan Jones gave many of us our Albion mojo back. For that he deserves a big thanks!

Totally the correct decision by the board, Nathan looks like he could be quite a decent prospect for the future. It was the wrong time for him now as his first job in 1st team management could of easily ended up as a relegation and damaged his CV for the foreseeable. I'm sure the club see him as a future candidate and are helping him gain valuable experience by keeping him on.

Very few managers out stay their contracts so perhaps he can be primed for 16/ 17 season to take over, if CH is going or has gone.

Have to agree. Still, credit where credit's due. Nathan certainly got the team motivated. TBH a sack of potatoes would be a better motivator than Sami.

Fantastic post. Lyrical, poetic, succinct and bang on.

Thank God - I thought I'd entered some parallel universe where NJ had become the new Alex Ferguson . . . .
