Veteran defender Rob Jones hints at Doncaster Rovers exit

Veteran defender Rob Jones admits that he could leave Doncaster Rovers at the end of the season.

By Jack Prescott, Rugby Editor | 28 April 2015

Doncaster Rovers defender Rob Jones has admitted that he could leave the club in the summer.

The 35-year-old, who moved to the Keepmoat Stadium in 2012, is out of contract at the end of the season.

Jones's final game for Donny could be against former club Scunthorpe United on Saturday.

"It's been a crazy two years for me. I had the euphoria of winning the league two years ago and since then I've played about 13 games. It's been hard," he told Rovers' official website.

"I'm out of contract in the summer so whether I play here next year is out of my hands but I've had three fantastic years here. I'm only 35 and I want to play football, it's as simple as that. I want to stop when I want to stop not when someone else tells me to stop. My body feels good, I feel fit and strong so why not carry on?"

Jones has scored one goal in 10 appearances for Doncaster during the current campaign.
