ON THIS DAY – APRIL 3, 2015
GOAL hero Kenwyne Jones insists he is happy to be boss Eddie Howe's plan B in Cherries' push for the Premier League.
The striker, drafted in from Cardiff City on emergency loan deadline day, crashed home a powerful header eight minutes from time to seal a 1-1 draw at Ipswich on Good Friday.
Jones told the Daily Echo: "As a substitute you have to come in and make an impact. and it was not just me, the other two did really well.
"At this stage of the season you may be accustomed to playing a certain style and scoring the same way but sometimes, a different goal is necessary.
"I am quite happy with any part I can play to help push the team over the edge. I am not going to bang on the door saying I should be doing this or that because this team has done very well and got into a great position up until my arrival."
Cherries: Boruc, Francis, Cook (Jones, 78), Elphick, Daniels, Ritchie, Arter, Surman, Fraser (Smith, 78), Wilson, Pitman (Kermorgant, 65).
Unused subs: Gosling, MacDonald, Ward, Camp (g/k).
