Jewell supports Jackson

Having edged in front for the third time against Spurs, Jackson's error enabled Robbie Keane to net the equaliser for Martin Jol's side.
Jewell said: "He knows for the third goal he has made a mistake. As far as I'm concerned we win together, lose together and draw together."
The Latics boss added: "He's distraught. He's a fantastic pro, and one of the most reliable people you could ever wish to manage. I don't have to tell him that.
"But he knows for the third goal he has made a mistake, and with the quality of Keane, the ball is in the back of the net before you can blink. So he's had a bad day. But everyone has them and he wasn't the only one because we made a couple of mistakes."
The point gained at least lifted Wigan up a place in the Barclays Premiership, yet it is the two dropped again that may cost Wigan dearly by the end of the season.
"There's no point going on about that now," countered Jewell. "There's only four games to go, so I can't keep saying we've lost so many points from leads.
"What we have to do is get more points than three other teams in this league. That's all I'm interested in.
"We can analyse the season when we are finished, but we are in the middle of a battle so we'll take anything we can get, and we've a point more than we previously had."
