Default Alex Reid

What a pro and I wish he were here for longer than 2 months!! All the stress of signing followed by being benched to then score on debut but know that you are on your way in two months...what a day for the lad but oh how well he seems to have taken to it! Great attitude (despite clearly being told what to say in his interview - come in, work hard, score goals and play attractive football), looked comfortable and if he carries on the way he's started will be a home favourite despite his short time with us. Good on Fleetwood for agreeing to send him to us, we are no threat to them at present and have a professional set up so a good placement opportunity for any aspiring professional IMHO. Well done DK, now just go get an extension as this is the sort of talent we need to see playing up front week in week out. Would like to see him with Boden as think they could be seriously potent - Boden's touch and work rate with a young pacy, hungry and accurate striker alongside him....tasty!!! COYR, difficult start against fellow challengers and away fixtures from afar but they will have to do the return leg at some time this season so best get the travel out of the way then focus on making others pay when they come to the fortress!!
