Jones' playing career saw him appear for Everton , Coventry City and Preston North End before going into coaching. He began his managerial journey in 1995 with Stockport County , who he guided to the second tier and the semi-finals of the League Cup . His achievements with Stockport saw him earn a first Premier League job with Southampton in 1997. During his time on the south coast, Jones was falsely accused of child abuse, with the case thrown out of court in the first week of the trial. Jones was completely exonerated by the judge, who said there was "no smoke, no fire" - which the ex-defender would later title his autobiography. A key alleged victim was also later found to have fabricated their claims in an attempt to win compensation. Speaking to the Independent in 2011, Jones explained: "Of all the things you could accuse me of, this was the worst. I would rather have been accused of murder.' Having left Southampton before his exoneration, Jones went on to rebuild his career with Wolves . He guided the club to the Premier League via the play-offs in 2003 but was unable to keep them up. 4 Dave Jones guided Wolverhampton Wanderers to the Premier L){kind=link}
