I know Longy has been a great player and if Hull are lucky he'll have another 2 or so left in him, but there seems a lot of talk about his influence with the younger players and his presence in the dressing room. I was just wondering if this will be the case as he comes across as a bit of a law unto himself and in a way is this the kind of player who will impart knowledge or in a way even know how he does what he does or is it all abit of well 'I just know'.

I may be well off the mark but he seems the type that if it all goes wrong may be more of a disruptive influence rather than insperational.

You are right,he comes across as a bit of a maverick,but there is no doubting his class.Maybe he has matured a bit with age?

possibly and I hope for your lot he has, I suppose its a case of time will tell.

Going on the state of his hair the maturity hasn't gone that well yet he looked a right sod tonight

That,I can`t argue about.

All part of being a supporter......banter is a great part of supporting different teams.

No it isn't... is this the right room for an argument?

5 minute,or 10 minute?

i didnt say he was a bad player did i? i dont think there has been a better scrum half but that isnt what i said is it, i said i dont like him - main reason, if youve ever spoken to him you might realise hes a cocky arrogant tw*t.

im sure his book will bring more light on how he really is - to me the title says it all


Plus signing for FC just means i can dislike him even more so now.

All in all, if you speak to fans from any team most will say he is/was a great player but they dont like him, hes just that type of player who gets on your nerves.

Think about all the money he will be able to make off the back of you lot every time he reads the team sheet!

I'd have to agree with you there, I met the man himself a few years ago in blackpool during the season when he was supposed to be recovering from injury, he was carrying on like a prize git. There's no doubting his talent but his attitude has always been questionable for me, perhaps he's grown up a bit now, (i'd be saying this if rovers had signed him also)

This taken from the book:

"[iFrom page 49:

By the end of the night, I'd downed five or six pints of lager and a few shots of vodka and I was well drunk. It's hardly legendary boozing but I was only 18 and new to drinking... Anyway, I rolled out of the club at around 1am and staggered into the road and into the path of a car full of girls. Despite my best efforts to charm them by dancing inches from the bonnet, and making gorilla noises, they were blasting the horn for me to get out of the way ...

One of the girls was well drunk and she gave me loads more abuse than her mates. She started pushing me ... I knew I'd been a pain in the ar$e but it was all just high spirits; I wasn't prepared for things to get this nasty with a bunch of girls. Then she totally lost it and began punching me again and again.

Next thing I knew, I instinctively swung back at her. But as I threw the punch, the girl who'd been driving stepped in to drag her mate off me. My fist ended up landing square on her chin and she dropped to the floor ... [/i

After Reardon, another thug who hits girls







Long should be banned for a long time .

Especially now he's signed for Hull FC, eh.

Yup

Hope the RFL gave him the same punishment they gave Cockayne when he tried to implant his shoe in that blokes head

That was a criminal matter, not an RL one, whereas the gambling on match outcomes by players is something that the RFL should be punishing (and if any element of fixing is involved, the police as well).

Lets be honest,whatever the barrack room lawyers say on here,by the time the rfl get around to it Long will be retired anyway.

have a look at what tommo quoted.

anyone know when the book is/was out? heard it was yesterday



If so does anyone know were i can get it from? (and dont say a book shop you cabbages

)

Well I reckon you can get it from a book shop, but Amazon or a big supermarket might be worth a shot

Think he is cheeky myself.

even that clown could register correctly for a forum

Amazing how some right Charlie's sound the same

Yes



To be fair he is now 33 this was when he was 18 im sure he has "Grown up" by now

Lets see how Longy copes with the night games with his dicky eye , i'm sure he will relish nights out in The Weir bar and drag the rest of the squad down with him, long live Longy
