Unable to join in the party in the Ibrox dressing room after the 3-0 win over St Mirren, Jones sent a social media message following the Black Cats' 2-0 win over Rochdale.
Retweeting images of Steven Gerrard celebrating in the Rangers dressing room as fans flocked around the Ibrox windows, Jones wrote “Enjoy every minute #55” as well as heart emojis in red and blue and a union flag.

Rangers first team coach Michael Beale was one of many to reply and wrote: "You are part of this Jordan.”
Jones signed for Rangers in the summer of 2019 but the Northern Ireland international moved to Sunderland in January on loan until the end of the season in search of first team football. The winger played just four times for Rangers this term and also missed a portion of the season through suspension. He sat out for seven games late last year after breaching Covid rules in November.
Rangers need just one more point to make mathematically certain of a 55th league title – a decade since their last title triumph under Walter Smith in 2011.
The trophy turnover could be sealed on Sunday when second-placed Celtic play Dundee United needing a win to deny their Old Firm rivals a championship confirmation this weekend.
