The South Wales outfit were facing their second winding-up order in relation to an unpaid tax bill to Her Majesty's Revenue and Customs believed to be in the region of £2.7million.
The order was adjourned for 28 days after £1m was paid in part settlement of the debt, with the remaining amount due over the next four weeks.Cardiff chairman and chief executive Peter Ridsdale was in court to hear of the extension which, considering the worst-case scenarios on offer, represents good news for the club.
Administration and a 10-point deduction was potentially on the horizon should the winding-up order have been made, but Jones insists that was never going to be the case.
"I was assured that wasn`t going to happen and that seems to have gone through now," he said.
"But we`re not looking at that, we`re still trying to do our best and keep going. It is difficult times for this football club all the way through."
