Dick JONES | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
An amateur inside left, Jones won 17 county caps whilst at Swindon, before becoming the club's first professional skipper. He won the Wiltshire Cup with four different teams - Swindon Town, Swindon Town Reserves, Trowbridge Town and Bridge St. Victoria. It is possible that Jones holds the record for the quickest ever hat-trick scored for the Town. In Swindon's first season in the Southern League (1894/1895), though obviously impossible, Jones claimed that he scored a hat-trick "without an opposition player touching the ball" in the home match with Ilford, played at the Croft.
