RR: How do you know Jordan Jones?
MW:
I first met Jordan in the injury room at Rockliffe Hall. I had known about the potential he had for some time before that, though - people would always talk about how good he was, which was quite intimidating for a younger player.
He was two years older than me and was well regarded as one of Middlesbrough Academy’s best prospects at the time, and he was undoubtedly a favourite of academy manager Dave Parnaby.
