Shane Long says the players have been absolutely delighted with the support the fans have given them at recent away games.

We have sold all our 3,000 tickets for this weekend's trip to Arsenal, and we also took our full allocation of 1,800 when we travelled up to Newcastle.

The fans have certainly come out in full voice for the final throes of the season, and Shane has been very impressed with the continual backing.

He said, "It's been great, and it's exactly what we need, people behind us. It's been tough for everyone, but that 12th man makes it easier, definitely.

"I know from the trip back on the bus that Newcastle was a horrible journey after losing. The fans were stuck up in that corner and were so loud, even at 3-0.

"It's nice to have everyone behind us, I know they've been supporting us every step and we just want it to keep going until the end of the season."
