60 grand an inspired signing by HK - happy birthday put some photos on the old photo thread -
Happy Birthday Reidy turned from a red to a True Blue

Brilliant player for us always remember think it was Bradford away and he came out to warm up with jet black hair
Always wonder if he hadn't of got injured that day if he would have ended up at arsenal

Was there that day, we were behind the goal singing “He’s worth a £m”
He laughed at us and told us to Off. Happy days.

How this fella isn't part of the coaching staff at Everton when you've had the likes of jeffers and others getting jobs for the boys who never did anything worthy is beyond me. I'm not a big fan of handing jobs out to ex players just for the sake of it but this lad is one I'd definitely have in the club in some capacity.

As a 10 year old I tried to model my own game on Reidy. A perfect central midfielder.

 

[CrustySack]

We've never replaced him in midfield. Simple as that.

 

[Toffeelover]

A straioht forward down to earth footballer.

 

[blulouie]

When he came here legs all busted he was like a clapped out Moggy Minor.

But for us he was pure Rolls Royce.

Broke the mould when they made Reidy.

My best mate got married at Goodison on the day of Howard's funeral (a really strange day by all accounts)

At the do afterwards, Reidy, Inchy and Andy Gray all turned up at the hotel and all three were boss lads - gabbed for ages and real gents

Never have you seen so many blokes get up at the same time and head to the bar - most of the women just sat there wondering what the hell was going on!

Happy Birthday Reidy

Best midfield general we had since Alan Ball. Agree with an earlier poster still haven't replaced him to this day. Happy Birthday Peter

 

[PaddyJames]

Top bloke, I've met him a few times and the last time I met him he remembered my name. All the best lad.

That said, I was assuming this was going to be another new manager thread and was expecting kick offs. Nice surprise.

One of our true greats, loved Reidy, always up for the fight, what would be be worth now.

…terrific player, terrific attitude, terrific lad & a vital cog in a truly great team.

Never forget the bloody sock against Bayern.

And one of our current players can’t even put the correct socks on when he comes onto the pitch !

Happy birthday Reidy.

A section turned on him in the end though!!!!! We have the greatest fans but the other 20% are as scummy as Millwall.
