Jones thanks Town's travelling fans for support at Stanley
With the Wham Stadium not exactly catering for visiting fans needs, placing them in a non covered terrace behind the goal, Hatters’ followers still managed to make themselves heard throughout.
Jones didn’t think the wet, windy and downright miserable conditions would have bothered them one bit after goals from James Collins and Danny Hylton made it five league wins from six.

“They were brilliant once again, you could hear them, I wouldn’t like to say how many we had, but we were over a quarter of the crowd and away at Accrington’s a fantastic following, it really, really is.
“That’s magnificent, we thank them for that, but I don’t think any one of them will be moaning about being cold or wet, because I think their players gave them everything.
“I’m not going to sympathise with them, I’m going to say thank you for supporting us and have a safe journey at home.”
