Jones concern for injured Cardiff fan

Boss Dave Jones was concerned only about the fan injured in a fall during City`s 3-3 npower Championship draw with Millwall at The Den and not the result.

The Bluebirds supporter fell out of the top tier of the away stand into the seats below as the visiting fans were celebrating Chris Burke's 48th-minute opener for the Welsh side. The male fan fell 15 feet and was taken to hospital with head and neck injuries, Millwall said in a statement.

The club said he was in a stable condition. All the goals came in the second half, Liam Trotter with a penalty, Kevin Lisbie and Steve Morison netting for the Lions, Burke scoring twice and Peter Whittingham once for City. But Jones' thoughts were with the injured fan, saying: "I couldn't give two hoots about the result after that. One or two of the players saw it and Craig [Bellamy] said it made him feel physically sick.

"We don't know much about him but all we'll say is that we as a club send our best wishes for a speedy recovery. We desperately want to do well for our supporters and as a club we have a duty to them. At the moment, we are all just concerned about that guy."
