Shane Long

[boy1985]

Conclusion on shane long: tries hard, good attitude, lacks quality, should seekk football elsewhere to develop any hidden potential he possesses coz the balding guy and the Reading massive can't see it

I would agree if it wasn't that he always seems to be improving. Whilst he is improving, I would keep him to see just how much he improves. Then assess him.

Don't think he has improved that much to be honest. He's only still at the club because of his work rate

As Brendy is a self confessed dyslexic illiterate you shouldn't be surprised to see invented words from that source!

In which case, what is Lita still doing here. Poor work rate plus one goal per season

All of our other strikers can only be envious of the goals Long has scored recently because none of them have matched him.

So, that's just more goals than his rivals to go with his work rate.............................I'm sure some of these posts are made just to win a bet

Lets be fair Long don't offer much. Four years he has been at the club and he can't break into the first team. Is this what you want at the club? players that are pushing the first choice team are what keep competion in the side. I'm affraid Long is never gonna make at the club so its time to cash in.

Yep.

A mix is what's needed.

Long has proved his worth of late.

We can't have 30 top notch first team regulars so players like Long who do a decent job without being stars, don;t draw huge wages and don't act like primma donnas are a necessary part of the club. Every club has them

Well, other than a good scoring rate when he comes on he doesn't offer much. Oh, that and an injection of pace.

Other than that what have the Romans ever done for us? (Ooops, wrong film?)

Her invented words at half time on the chat room are the best, usually trying to sum up our shambolic mess of a first half!!

[Archie's penalty]

7 league goals this season. Not three bad.

[Rex]

Kept his cool for the goal last night. Admittedly a one on one but still well taken.

[Huntley & Palmer]

Though he still has the first touch of a rapist by all accounts
