Shane Long

[Royal Rother]

Shane Long is 2nd favourite at 12/1 to win the Championship's golden boot this season.
Simon Cox is first at 12/1 as well.

I know very little about gambling but that can't be right surely?

I know very little about gambling as well, but those odds tip us that Shane Long is going to be the 2nd best striker in the league this season.

Joint favourites - equal chance per the bookies of coming 1st or 2nd.

If they worked on christian names then Long would appear first in the list.

If Long is the second top scorer in the Championship this season I will eat John Madejski's wig.

If shane long gets 9 by christmas you owe Ali a shirt .. Remember?

Not going to happen.

With Fozzy he knew what he was doing and had Hughes (in his best position by far) supporting him behind. The other problem with Long i worry about is him beating a man. If it is to work then he needs very good support. I don't doubt the ball will be played along the floor to him and he'll search for through balls as well but some of finishing i've already seen in pre season doesn't fill me with confidence and he will need to take his chances.

For the record, i like Chopra at 16's for top scorer.

Anyone capable of digging up last season's odds at around this stage?

Anyone capable of digging up old threads about Shane Long for a bit of Snowball worship?

Well, I seem to recall similar treatment working for Lita for a few games before it all went to his head again.

I trust there's more to Shane Long's character than Lita's and one will continue advancing as the other declines.

Sorry but in that photo in the school ticket initiative explained report it is impossible to identify the non-pupil.
