We have definitely made enquiries to sign him this summer.
I'd have him to be fare at the right price. Good squad player.

Cilla. Have you heard anything about whether board/Coates are happy with Hughes or are looking at other options?

Definitely not happy with how the season has gone and disappointed with the money Hughes has spent on players that haven't worked but will not make any decisions until the season ends. If we don't finish top ten I feel the axe could fall on him.

I'd suggest that we shouldn't be looking at players are nearest rivals think are disposable , he is on a long contract and I'd leave Southampton with the problem our biggest mistakes have been losing first choice players to Southampton , Redmond and Soares , .
equally who leaves if he came Diouf ? As it won't be walters for 100 % sure .

I remember people on here slating him when we were linked last window when we sniffed around, eventually we wasted our time chasing saido, don't rule out sturridge either he's another we've been after the last 2 windows.

Hughes confirmed we tried to sign him when he left WBA for Hull, so he must rate him.
He's another 30+er though

Most worryingly he's 30 now, we'd be better off keeping with Walters for the money it'd cost.
Strikers are the least of our problems we've got a decent pool of them at the moment even without Bony,
Please can we look at RB, LB and DM.

If Walters left I could live with that.
He's a limited player who's a good runner.
Not what we need at all really.

A yes from me, I've always liked Shane Long!!! 👍

He was on 50k-a-week at Hull when Soton signed him. And he had 2 years left on that initial Soton deal when he signed a new deal there last year.
So got to think he will be on £50k+. 3 years left on the deal so the whole package would be very, very expensive for a bloke who'll be 31 in January.

Why have a young pacy squad when you get an old squad of so called grafters?

Thanks for the info CillaBlacksPissFlapsWould be an interesting signing if it happened, and it would only increase the average age by a half . Wonder who we would ship out to make way for him? I've got a feeling Mame Diouf is on his way out this summer, although I'm not sure Long can play full back?

There is a reason he very rarely starts for one of our rivals

If we don't finish top ten I feel the axe could fall on him. Which is no surprise to most, any truth in the rumours going around that CR has been sounded out about the job ?, would seem a massive shift for PC to be looking at a foreign coach.

Joking apart I like Shane Long and think he's similar in style to Odemwingie. He makes clever runs to open space for his teammates and has a good engine.
