I dont think its anything to do with Dave Jones tactics. Which seemed to be 442 big man little man up top and the players just get on with it.
You’re despise of Dave Jones knows no boundaries Hilts

It was largely thanks to Dave Jones we had players of that quality. It was largely thanks to Jones we become a club with real aspirations to get in the Premier League.

Yes the Ridler spending money he didn’t really have helped but Jones signed some absolute gems for peanuts, who were then either sold on for good money or become legends of the club.

No one could get a tune out of the talented Jay Bothroyd until Jones got him under his wing and no more words need writing about the great Peter Whittingham and the player he become,largely thanks to the confidence Jones gave him to express himself.

To give Jones no credit for the progression we made as a club and the football we played under him is utterly laughable
