Jones upset by City collapse
19 Apr 2009 - 15:16:04
Cardiff City boss Dave Jones was left to survey the wreckage of a dreadful display at Deepdale, as the Bluebirds were routed 6-0 by Preston North End.
The huge loss left City's hope of automatic promotion in tatters, with Jones offering no defence of his players.
He told Wales Online: "We were shocking and I just didn't see it coming. Not one of the players can take any credit from that.
"We just didn't turn up, the only ones who did were the fans and well done to them. We just didn't do the basics which we've been doing all season.
"Full credit to Preston, but they didn't have to work too hard for it.
"Maybe one or two of our players needed that. They were talking in the papers this week about being on the beach in May and all that rubbish.
"So maybe it's the best thing that could have happened to us, in a stupid way.
"I wish it hadn't, but maybe it's a kick up the backside for a few of them who got sunburn out there, because they just strolled around."
