Long's new deal 'almost wrapped up'

[Sirius]

I think that, as above, we've gotten our answer from George. We can't officially tell him to jog on then as we wouldn't get any compensation. New GK needed

To me, the delay means that George is not committed to the Blades. Buy now Chris,whilst the better ones are available. After that, George can either do one or sign a contract with United.

I've been one of his supporters throughout the season. But am I distraught that he may be departing? Hardly.

A decent goalie (boosted by the fact that he's "one of ours"), who has most certainly improved.

But is he a match-winner or match-saver a significant number of times a season? Is he likely to be in any way outstanding?

I like the guy, & I'll certainly wish him well if he goes, will keep tabs on his progress, & will happily applaud him on any return to the Lane. But, sorry to say, Wilder's approach mirrors my own views when push comes to shove: don't mind if he stays, don't mind if he goes. Hardly a ringing endorsement. And Smith excites me, unfaithful bastard that I am!

Hi LB What's being unfaithful got to do with football? Your secret's safe with me.

It must mean he's rejected the new offer.

Not heard a dicky bird . If he has not signed. , we move on to better things . If he has signed , we get another goalkeeping coach to help him develop and some new gloves to help the ball stick .

Not fussed .

Will these do?

Really depressing read this with so many who know nothing about the player or the negotiations just making things up and wanting to get rid of a young GK who will only improve further.

What's the delay?

Sign on the dotted line, George, and show your commitment to the new regime. We haven't got all day, lad.
