It also says in the report that they would accept a 5 figure sum, so you would think we would be able to get him if we really want him.


Well, its not as straight forward as that is it. Like everyone else, i have no idea on what we've bidded, but theres a big difference between 10,000 and 90,000.

It was reported on Radio Humberside that they had asked Chris Long about whether he was about to sign for Town but could only get a 'no comment' reply

Really?

Jolley's already explained the reason for the comparative lack of pre-season fixtures.  With all due respect, I judge the opinion of him and his specialist staff on how many games are best for us over anyone else on this forum (I include myself in that too).

As for the half a team.  We've more or less get two XI's in the squad now.  I agree we probably need an out-and-out striker, but I wouldn't be massively concerned if we started the season with Cook and Hooper/Cardwell as the front pairing.  

Must have missed that what are the reasons given for the lack of preseason matches ?

IIRC he said it was a deliberate policy. Added that Burnley had very few pre season games and most observers say they were one of the fitest teams in the prem. As far as MJ is concerned it is his way of getting the squad ready for the start of the season

If they asked him at 6.25am they're lucky they got a response at all
