On pay till the rest of the season - what's to lose?

I know but he's got to sort his shoulder out, he won't be getting into training anytime soon.

In the hope they offer him more money and he leaves for them.

I've never heard anything as shameful as the "respect" from your lot today. I certainly don't think it does "always" happen. You've given a poor example, as well, as the vast majority of Hull fans still regard and hold Briscoe in great esteem for his sevices to us. No injury has ever been celebrated at Hull in recent memory, unless you can provide evidence otherwise?

He shouldn't get a playing offer from us.

Hull confirm Longy in hospital with a dislocated shoulder.

When Long has been injured in the past - Agar has valued his input. Most coaches don't train - they instruct. Just think this could be focussed into Ellis for next season in an attempt to actually have him ready. If he arrives at the end of this season as he's playing now, there's no way he's ready to take up the mantle.

Hope your right, fear your not.

They've only released that as a excuse to why we lost.

My thoughts exactly. They should be ashamed.

Just said the same,

He'll need physio, maybe a operation, he'll get that sorted before he gets to training.

The coaches get together before and after training, how's longy going to get to the meetings? He can't drive.

I'm not sure if you kept the said game on your Sky +, but the camera picked up certain Hull fans waving him (Briscoe) off the pitch. And I'm not sure it was because they hold him still in such high regards. As said, it happens, it's not right, but it does.

Also, I know you said in recent memory, but some Hull fans still rejoice to this day in Millward having his jaw broken at Wembley and I'm certain Andy Dannat was held in a smilair high regard to Briscoe after he 'sorted out' Hanley back in the day. Was that a broken jaw if my memory is correct?

The ambulance was weaving through the spectators after the match. Must have taken their time trying to get it back in before it was called. Poor Longy.

Thing is Churchill - you are right in that there are a few morons who support every team - i.e. the idiot (be it Black and White or Red and White) who chucked the bottle today. Or the brain-dead few who waved bye bye to Briscoe, don't have footage, so can't comment. Or the lighter-chucker at Wigan.

But what was so shameful was that it was [iall[/i the East Stand wishing Long well today. Thousands of them. The sheer numbers make the difference and undermine you argument - you [ihave[/i no argument with this one.
