In December 2006, Jones joined Bury on an emergency seven-day loan. He made his debut against Mansfield Town on 9 December but wasn't available for Bury's FA Cup replay against Chester due to signing restrictions.

In late 2007, Jones signed for Nantwich Town in the Northern Premier League Division One South. Jones was released in February 2010. He joined Morecambe as a coach, also sitting on the bench when the club became low on first-team goalkeepers.
