"He almost scored a goal. He will be a hell of a player once he has the experience and more games under his belt." said the former Macclesfield gaffer.
Norwich striker and regular Northern Ireland front man, David Healy, also praised the Northern Ireland new comers. So with Northern Ireland playing the 2nd best team in the world next week when Spain visit, they are under pressure having not scored in 14 hours. Will Steve Jones be given the chance to put that right? Will he get his chance to become a history maker.... who was the first player to score for Northern Ireland after a 14 hour goal drought?... lets hope so.
