Don't think he is going anywhere to be honest & if we do sell him Pards will probably be telling Murray it's Bye Bye to promotion for this year at least.

Player power rules these days though. Whilst Pards won't want to sell him, if Reid throws a strop and says he wants to go, what choice do we have?
Sure he could be persuaded - just need to get him thinking about all the ice creams, sticks of rock and candyfloss he could get his hands on over the summer months.

I could be wrong, but Reid doesn't strike me as that sort of player. If it was a move to a top 4 club then fair enough but I can't see him throwing a strop so that he could join sunderland.
If we had Andy Reid playing for us last season we would have won the league by Christmas. He genuinely controls a midfield. We don't have anyone even close.
I was sat right down the front near the corner when he come over to take a corner got a bit of stick and seemed to enjoy it smiling and laughing. great bloke and player
He came round the office when he left and told finance team that he'd have loved to have stayed if we had paid him more. hugged everyone and thanked them for their hard work. Love him. was devastated when he left - more than I was when Claus Jensen left on my birthday. Glad he got a good reception by the majority.
Reid gave Pritchard a lesson in off-the-ball movement today. He took him into central areas to disrupt our Diamond midfield, creating space for others to move into and opening up our right flank. On the ball, he dictated the pace and pattern of the game and caused havoc, until BWP was moved onto the right to occupy his space. Clever player with a sweet left foot.
The obvious way to play him, is to get your right back forward and force him backwards. If he doesn't chase back, you can overload their left back area 2v1. It was disappointing that we didn't have that in our game-plan. Perhaps we'll do it in the return fixture.
A player of some quality but if Forest get many more than 20 games out of him this season they will be doing well as we know ourselves from his time with us!
he can sing and play the guitar very well as I remember from a lock in at Hardy's one sunday night. he drank one pint all night after we'd won on the saturday night and it was an international break as I recall the following week, so i'll let him off.

You never know.
Got a good reception from the travelling addicks and was clapped off when subbed.

Warm friendly bloke too.
