Peter Reid happy birthday fella

61 today.

Let's share our favourite Reidy moments.

Mine was his appearance after discovering Grecian 2000 and thinking we'd bought a new player, until the penny dropped.

Also his low cross from the wing for Andy Gray's diving header versus Sunderland (or was it Sheffield utd?) - one if the best goals I've ever seen.

One of my favourite days at Goodison.

And the nutmeg leading up to it. That game is comfortably in my top 5 games. A truly, well oiled machine in overdrive. Reidy is one of my favourite ever players.

The Bayern game,getting fouled,sticking a sponge in his sock and telling the physio to get off the pitch because there was no way he was leaving the field for treatment

...yep, blood stained sock from a hole in his leg is what I think of. Top pro.

" Reid's cross ....GRAY !!!!" . Great goal , fantastic match .

Don't know whether my imagination has embellished the goal, I remember it started way back in our own half with a brilliant tackle (Mountfield?) but in my head I had Gray diving horizontally, his head 12" from the ground, the ball going over the keeper's hand and Gray going under the keeper.

Hopefully more just around the corner.

 

[Major Gowen]

Reidy ensuring Brian Marwood paid the price for that tackle on Inchy:

 

[Jimmy Grimble]

Fully committed, hard as nails and he could play. Just lacked a bit of pace. One of our best ever.
