He followed it up by playing for Oswestry Town, Bethesda Athletic and Colwyn Bay, where he became player–manager.〔 He went on to have spells as manager of Rhyl, where he achieved three promotions, and Connah's Quay Nomads. Away from football he worked as an engineer.〔 Jones died in July 2007 at the Hospice of the Good Shepherd near Chester.〔(【引用サイトリンク】 title= Tributes paid to former manager )〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Ray Jones (footballer, born 1944)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
