When asked about the crowd’s reaction afterwards, Jones said: “Ryan Tunnicliffe was a free transfer and I think he’s been excellent value for money, excellent.
“He’s mobile, he’s got the Championship experience, he’s got composure on the ball in really difficult situations, but maybe he hasn't scored a goal and that’s what it’s for.
“I think Tunners has been very, very good this season, but as I've said before previously supporters are entitled to their opinion.
“They pay their money, they want to see winning football not losing football, and that’s what they’ve seen today.”
