Kirk was inevitably involved in the only goal of the game, he hit the by-line from Ainley’s through ball and he calmly picked out Long for a tap-in and his second goal of pre-season,Long smiled broadly as he struck the ball in to the net.

Long being a grumpy git as well as a shit striker is a different matter Plus Cole was far more professional on the park. Long regularly dropped out of games, got bookings and sent off and gave away stupid fouls like the one in Israel. Long showed the right attitude in his final few games but only because he was playing for a contract elsewhere. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spit_It_Out Posted July 20, 2021 Report Share Posted July 20, 2021 Long for me had the feeling he just didn't want to be here at all.It blew my socks off the fact Robinson offered him terms but was more than happy for Long to sit about waiting on other offers to come in which they clearly didn't happen then sign him up again. That in itself should have been a no go it was a poor bit of business. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That in itself should have been a no go it was a poor bit of business. That's how we got Skippy and Faddy back (and Cole come to that), and we managed to sign Watt and O'Donnell as free agents for similar reasons. I didn't think Long was all that bad, and one of the best games I have seen at Pittodrie was when Watt and Long destroyed the Dons defence when we beat them 3 - 0. But he was much better in in a front 2 then when we wasted him playing out wide in 3. He was certainly more effective than guys like Jordan White, Alex Fisher, Conor Sammon or the enigma that was George Newell. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Celtic fans aren't too happy with him going by Twitter and Kerrydale. He's too slow apparently. I watched the game and he wasn't great but it was his clever touches that created their two best opportunities which Forrest squandered. It looked like the Danes were playing for Extra Time from kick off because they knew they had superior fitness, a consequence of scrapping the away goals rule. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
