Harsh in my opinion. I didn't get the impression that he insisted on being sold, and he played well for us when fit.

Agree with that, RM cashed in on him to balance the books. Reid never gave any impression that he wanted out and was actually sorry to leave by all accounts.

Sorry, that is complete cr*p! We received an offer we couldn't refuse - I don't remember there being any hard feelings at the time.

Well you've made yourself look like a tit haven't you!?
One of my favourite players of the last decade. Scored some great goals and if it wasn't for his weight I honestly believe he has the ability to play at the highest level

Aren't you on the wrong site? I think you want the 'intothevalley' messageboard - that's where the rest of the fuckwitted chumps hang out. That has to be hands-down the stupidest, most ill-informed post I've ever seen on here.
Sorry to throw a spanner in the works fellas, but I've attended a few of these Q&A sessions with players & ex-players etc...during the Varney & Peacock one at Bexley Park, it was revealed that Reid did in fact insist on the move once he knew it was a Prem club. This is what I e-mailed to friends;
"Once Sunderland confirmed their interest, he wanted to leave. We made a profit, so the Board had to accept. Pards tried to talk him out of it, but he wanted to link up with Roy Keane and play in the Prem again. The finger was pointed at Pards for not having a replacement lined up, as the money was available from his sale."
FTR - I really liked Reidy as a player, was disappointed he left, but understand his reasons.

Who was it who said "Andy Reid - touch like a Champions League player, body like a Sunday League player"?...
RM described the situation as Reid asking him to pay what Sunderland were offering or to let him leave. Si he would have stayed but it was all about the money.
The player was just chasing the money. I can see no reason as to why he wouldn't, especially with his fitness track record, but the club didn't choose to cash in.
It was a 400 percent pay rise... and the opportunity may not have been there the following window.. I dont begrudge him anything... it life, its football.. its money...

Reidy was good for us and Iwelumo, I still think if we hadn't of sold him we would've made the play offs that year.
Thank you Reidy!

He didn't choose to leave - we had to sell him
"He comes from Donegal,
And he f***ing hates Millwall"
But if it were Gary Doherty that's a different matter.
Bloody perfectionists. Okay, I'll try again:
"He comes from Dublin Hall,
And he f***king hates Millwall"
Better ......?
