Shane Long

[Chazz Rheinhold]

On a side note I'm not too impressed with Natalie on SSN. Yeller dress!! meh

 

[Tubby AKA Ableton (Mwah)]

You new to football? New to the bandwagon? Pl plazzy?

****ing mong, he's been around for years, apparently unlike you.

I'm the only one who ADMITS they've never heard of him... Shoot me... I don't follow West Brom.

£5m is a tad pricey for long

Well Bendtner, Cole, Doyle and Rodallega won't have been better. Number wise.

Bendtner- 19 goals in last 79 games (1 in 4)

Cole- 28 goals in last 105 games (1 in 4)

Doyle- 27 goals in last 139 games (1 in 5)

Rodallega- 27 goals in last 142 games(1 in 5)

Long - 44 goals in last 115 games (1 in 2.5)

and that's if it makes any sense to compare the last 3/4 seasons.

23 (more than half) of those 44 came in his one good championship season 4 years ago.

Rumour is it will depend on if West Brom get their players.

Not kidding right but Twitter is swamped with comments implying that this would be a fantastic deal, that wba are stupid to let him go, wba fans crying, other fans suggesting to hijack. I mean that's pretty positive.

#hcafc's interest in Shane Long very real. He's been given permission to leave Ireland camp. Much will depend on West Brom strengthening

Suspect Long won't get signed off unless at least one like-for-like striker comes in to #wba

 

[BigotAlertAnalRimMan]

West Brom fans are in meltdown mode. Absolutely ****ting themselves

And why should that be a surprise if we're all so knowledgeable about him before????

 

[HHH]

And Macca and Quinny.

Thinking back. He scored against England and looked bloody good in that game.

 

[hullborn]

Seriously lads & lasses, we're not in a position to turn people down.

We need a striker, and any striker will do.

And if he comes in and scores 6,7,8 goals he'll be our top goal scorer easy.

Brady & Aluko will both get around 6,7,8 goals this season and they arnt all out strikers... We need an out-and-out striker who can bag us 10-15 goals (Bruce's own words although he said 15-20...)

Shane Long is not a 10-15 goals per season striker... thats the bottom line.

A little bit surprised by Bruce with this one if im honest..

 

[Willson]

He has great acceleration which is what we are seriously lacking up front and is also a good finisher, not sure who people were expecting us to sign that would make this a disappointing signing.

 

[Kudos]

Panic buy.

Since when did local rag sports journos have the inside track on their local clubs?

Probably hangs on WBA getting anichibe
