    If I can be bothered after my hols I might, but the facts are that we conceded 7 goals in those corresponding games as against 6 with Long and Tarkowski.

    Obviously I'd like us to replace Keane, if Long was to get many minutes this season I'd be worried, but I don't think it's a disaster if Tarkowski and Mee are our starting partnership in most games.

    As for the complaints that we're not improving the squad enough, this time last year we'd only signed JBG and Pope, we're well ahead of that this summer.

    I just do not get this we don't trust Long campaign.

    He is big and mobile, strong and robust, two footed with a head like a rock, what's not to like?

    No mention of football ability Bt , at centre back in this league you need a bit more than the above IMO


    I hope if he does start he proves us wrong

    You simply cannot be an international footballer if you can't play football! Long has the ability.

    Please remember Kevin was side-lined for a long period with the dreaded knee knack?

    The paucity of decent centre-halves in Ireland doesn't make Kevin a better footballer BT, he's our 4th choice for a reason, the reason being he's not that good.

    White flag time. I surrender and I'm coming out with my hands up. Don't shoot!

    Looking for a keeper?

    As for Hull City, Ruiter’s arrival could mean that either David Marshall or Allan McGregor are set for an exit.
