Jones salutes City display
Cardiff manager Dave Jones spoke of his admiration for his players after they ended Leeds` 12-match unbeaten run with a 2-1 victory.
Craig Bellamy opened the scoring for Jones' outfit in the 10th minute and, after Robert Snodgrass had curled home a wonderful 59th-minute equaliser, Michael Chopra's opportunist strike won it for the Bluebirds with 11 minutes remaining.
Jones said: "It was a strong performance and all wins are good. But we were totally dominant apart from the time they scored their wonder goal.
"I have nothing but admiration for the players who have worked hard despite the illness that has run through the camp. Two of the players out there have been ill and we even lost one of the substitutes during the warm-up, but the players dug deep and came through.
"We have not been at the races in our last two games and performances were not acceptable but it did not warrant the press speculation as the stories printed should be backed up and checked but they never are. All we concentrate on is getting this sort of performance every week.
"We thrashed Leeds away yet they have been on a fantastic run since that game. We have just won one game and must go on to the next and produce the same. This is a hard division and there are no easy games but as long as we stay strong we will turn it round and I have never given up on anything."
