I am interested in goals from open play. That's what matters to me, and so I am commenting on it. If you don't like it, don't respond.
So why do you represent EIGHT open play goals that season as if they were four?
So Longs record is 14 games and 0 goals,
No it is NOT. It is 14 APPEARANCES. 3 genuine starts and 11 pathetic sub appearances totaling 200 minutes spread over more than 4 months. He was clearly frozen out by Todger. Once he was given his chance he took it and scored 9 goals, EIGHT in open play, at more or less a goal every 2 90-minutes.
then 4 games and 4 goals, and 28 games and 2 goals.
You forgot to add "I am ignoring Long's brilliant FA Cup exploits when he score 3 goals against Premiership opposition"Oh I SEEeeeeeeeeeeeee
12 16 1-2 Nott F PLEASE IGNORE THIS GAME (NOTE SHORT SUB APPEARANCE)
26 17 1-0 Burnley PLEASE IGNORE THIS GAME AS IT'S CUP AND MIGHT MAKE LONG LOOK OK. (NOTE SHORT SUB APPEARANCE)
90 18 0-3 Sheff U PLEASE IGNORE THIS GAME
NOW HOW CAN WE MAKE THE FOLLOWING LOOK BAD? HMMMM...
90 19 1-0 Scored in Open Play Barnsley
PLEASE NOTE DATE = JANUARY 30TH.....90 20 2-1 Scored in Open Play Doncaster
90 21 2-1 Scored in Open Play + Scored Penalty Plymouth
(PENALTIES ARE NO LONGER GOALS UNDER FIFA'S NEW "CMONURZ RULE") FEB 9thFOUR GOALS IN THREE GAMES... CRAP HUH? WELL THEY'RE NOT REAL GOALS COS THEY ARE A PURPLE PATCH INNIT?
LET'S IGNORE THE FACT THAT NOT ONLY DOES LONG SCORE, BUT IN TWO OF THESE GAMES HE ACTUALLY WINS THE GAME FOR RFC.
48 22 2-2 WBA (SENT OFF AFTER 48 MINUTES)
00 23 3-1 Palace
00 24 0-2 Blackpool
00 25 3-2 WBA
00 26 5-0 Sheff W
FOUR and a half games GAMES OUT
90 27 2-4 Open Play x 2 Villa
(PLEASE IGNORE THIS BECAUSE LONG SCORED TWICE in open play IN THE CUP v PREMIERSHIP OPPOSITION)90 28 4-1 Open Play Derby OH ANOTHER GAME (LEAGUE GAME 4, SEE?)
NOTE DATE IS NOW MARCH 10TH. ONE MONTH GAP Long's first goal was January 13th, his last goal April 17th, yet we are to take the impression that he had some distorted purple patch of 4 goals in a "brief" interlude...
You are a joke cmonurz
