Bristol-born Hull City star sends message to Bristol City ahead of Ashton Gate clash

Bristolian Alfie Jones believes the prospect of climbing above Nigel Pearson's Robins in the table is all the motivation Hull City need to pick up three points at Ashton Gate on Saturday.

Similar to Bristol City, the Tigers head into the match on a run of form under new manager Shota Arveladze having won three of their last four matches - including an impressive away victory at Middlesbrough.

Jones, 24, was born in the West Country and grew up in Long Ashton, attending Backwell School, but was picked up by the Southampton academy as a youngster. He had loans at St Mirren and Gillingham before signing for Hull in 2020.
