NATHAN JONES:

"Absolutely. I grew up in the Rhondda valley where all my mates were Cardiff fans. I had the chance to sign for Bristol City or Cardiff City and I signed for Cardiff City.

"I worked on the turnstiles when I was an apprentice and then rushed and watched all the games. All my mates came down and then we would all go back and chat about the games. I love Cardiff City.

"I grew up in the Rhondda and it's either Cardiff or Swansea. There's probably more Cardiff fans in the Rhondda valley than Swansea. I want to see Welsh football do well. I played for Merthyr. I want to see Merthyr do well and Newport. It's better when Wrexham, Newport, Cardiff do well.

"I remember the Welsh Cup, it used to be a fantastic competition where people went at each other. Barry Town were spending money. I want to see Welsh football do really well. One of my good mates is doing fantastically well as interim Wales manager, Robert Page.

"I want to see Welsh football do really well... just not when I'm managing an English team up against them! But that's only normal because food on the table is better than passion in the heart."

"You never know where your career is going to take you," he said. "If I'm honest, I have a fierce drive to get to the Premier League. I left and went to Stoke because I believed that was my quickest route.

Luton are on Sky in the play-offs tonight.

Jones was one of the pundits for the first leg, will be interesting to see if he is tonight and whether the host asks about the Cardiff job.

But I have to say that Jones isn't the name I've been told.
