Hull City chief Ehab Allam has admitted frustration missing out on a move for West Bromwich Albion striker Shane Long.

Allam has no regrets making their late move for the Irishman.

He told the Hull Daily Mail: "Yes, we went in for Shane Long on deadline day and we missed out, but that wasn't panic.
