It's sometimes about taking a risk and they can pay off. Given the fact that Longy seems to have turned a corner for the better and what better place for him to stay settled than at Saints. I heard he's back with his partner now too, which can only help with this.

I want us to take that risk and bring him back as I think it would be great for both club and Longy alike. Creative ideas and a team bond between club, coaches and players would be amazing and something we could only dream of a few years back. This could be the difference between us being regular contenders or THE team for all others to try to compete with.

Bring Back Long!!

I would say that came from Michael Maguire at Wigan, because it came from Australia, Melbourne in particular with Slater.

Aaah ... yes. One more brick in the wall named "Dynasty".

Many people, myself included, seem to have assumed that Long is coming back as our attacking coach. Seems a little odd therefore that he is actually our defensive coach. He was never the greatest of defenders from what I remember??? www.sthelensstar.co.uk/sport/sai ... 1627409._/?

Defending was our biggest problem mid season, so I suppose this is more of a priority. However I should imagine he will have some input on set plays.
