Coco Pops keeping Long choc full of goals

JEROME THOMAS has revealed the secret behind West Brom striker Shane Long’s never-ending energy — a pre-match bowl of Coco Pops.

The Baggies winger revealed that fit-again striker Long brings his own packet of the cereal to games and tucks into a bowl before kick-off.

It certainly appears to be having the desired effect, with Long netting his fourth goal in 10 games against Bolton on Saturday since his summer move from Reading.
