We were held to ransom for a replacement for Rodriguez, Long has come in with the pressure of the price tag, never shirked responsibility and given everything. He is the modern Ormerod with the extra pressure of the maddening fee. A better player is difficult to come by, should it have been that easy they would have been signed. Look at the options of Ings, Austin.... not cheap.
Regardless of final finishing position, we have done ourselves proud and have the foundation to push on from next season. Such vitriol against Shane Long simply is not justified. He didn't determine his worth, I would rather support our man then castigate him.
