Ahead of schedule early surely ? Good news tho if he can return this seasonAny physios want to chip in on what this means in terms of recovery? Is this what we’d expect at five months?
Normal ACL rehab protocol sees running start from around 3 months, but Jones isn’t a ‘normal’ case
I understand he had a patellar tendon graft, these are the gold standard but can take slightly longer to recover initially
He will likely have been doing treadmill running before this, straight line outdoor running at this stage I think is decent progress. Pleased for him
If he’s even hereReady for pre-season you reckon?
If he’s even here
Did they have 3 ACL’s ?Shearer, Van Nistlerooy, Baggio, Del piero, Falcao, Roy Keane, Xavi, Totti and Pires all had ACL injuries and all came back stronger. ACL doesn't mean end of career. Even 2 doesn't. If surgery goes well and he he has proper rehabilitation there's is no reason for him to not come back.

For me his body isnt up for the job of a pro footballer he was ok in league 2 not proven in league 1 or the champ...unless it’s pay as you play and a small basic maybe then for me it’s time to call it a day we need all hands on deck with the budget we can’t be paying people wages who don’t play

If the club invested heavily in getting the best surgeon they would be very unlikely to release him in the summer then surely. Hopefully Jodi continues to make progress and earns himself a new contract by proving his fitness and desireI think you're right on all counts
The club has an anti gravity treadmill now so I believe Jones has been using that for a while
Robins and his team have invested a lot in his recovery
We have a far better medical team than we had in the past and the club used one of the best knee surgeons in the world for the op
Things are looking good.
The lad deserves a change of luck.
He's certainly put the work in to give himself and the club the best chance of a positive outcome
Small retainer, large appearance bonus would hopefully satisfy both parties.If the club invested heavily in getting the best surgeon they would be very unlikely to release him in the summer then surely.

Nice to see him back training, but personally I think we should cut our losses with him, I'm guessing he'll likely receive a new deal though which needs to be weighted heavily in the clubs favour.
It’s beyond stupid to rehabilitate a player then let him go before he’s shown his ability. Why would you back him all the way up to him being fit again?
people going on like keeping Jones on means we won’t be able to sign someone. It’s nonsense.
The club have a duty towards the player to look after him while he's injured. What's strange about putting him through rehab?

What’s strange is not taking a one year low wage gamble on a player with Championshop potential before his injury. He’s not going to cost more than the likes of Tavares, he was also signed in L2.
Why on earth would you risk giving him away for free?
Id rather keep Jones than most of our U23 forwards.
Yep ... its called duty of careThe club have a duty towards the player to look after him while he's injured. What's strange about putting him through rehab?
add the fact he hasn't improved at all over the last 3 years. too. Perhaps worth a conservative deal if we get relegated.Nice to see him back training, but personally I think we should cut our losses with him, I'm guessing he'll likely receive a new deal though which needs to be weighted heavily in the clubs favour.
