Re: Kev Long
 

I think KL started off pretty poorly in the Rotherham game but as he got more games under his belt he has grown in cofidence and this has reflected in his improved displays. I have watched a good few times for Burnley reserves and I was never really impressed with him but he has come on leaps and bounds for Stanley. He adds a bit of height in a otherwise small backline and this should help us against more physical teams with whom we normally struggle. He was man of the match for me against Stevenage and it would be good if we could keep him till the end of the season.

MOM for me yesterday at Bradford

Re: Kev Long
 

It's nice to see him doing well. After getting sent of against Rotherham, and so early in the game, must have been devastaing for him. I thought he played really well against Stevenage. And by all accounts another good game at Bradford last night.

have we got the green light off burnley yet for friday fa cup

Re: Kev Long
 

I've had a word with Brian and he said no problem. He's cup tied anyway by Stanley in the first round :)

Re: Kev Long
 

Fair credit to Coley for sticking by the lad particulary after his debut game.

I think that descision to stand by him is beginning to pay dividends along with a run of first team games for Kevin it is a big jump up from reserve football to first team football first in terms of fitness (match sharpness) learning to slot into perhaps different systems.

I would be tempted as BDC has said to even try to make it a season long loan deal that would be beneficial for us, the lad himself & Burnley?

Re: Kev Long
 

Alex McDonald would be another one at Burnley worth looking at for a loan move

He always impresses when I see him play for the reserves and he knows where the net is, would certainly add a different dimension to our strikeforce

Re: Kev Long
 

agree wi pendle red, think a rest of season loan would benefit all parties.:) lets hope it will happen.

Transfer News.

Long extends stay.

Kevin Long has extended his loan spell at the Crown Ground until January 11th.

The 20-year-old Burnley defender has made eight appearances for the Reds in his two months at the club so far.

I, for one like this lad, only problem is, we will be seeing Sunbeds out of position for a few more games!!! Now that the defence is sorted, it will not be long before we have the attack sorted!!!!

:) :) :)
