[Archived] Reidy!

[daveoftherovers]

It's official:

Blackburn midfielder Steven Reid signs a new four-year contract, and is now committed to Ewood Park until 2010.

So far, we've lost MGP and now Stephen Reid, hopefully next will be Bellamy & Lucas.

[ABBEY]

i dont believe you!

[den]

reported earlier in the transfer rumour thread.

[Ste B]

reported earlier in the transfer rumour thread.

To be fair Den, this is now not a rumour so should be discussed on its own.. especially given the B.S. on the rest of that thread.

[den]

Agreed. Sorry folks.

[G Somerset Rover]

Good news. If he ever does want to go back down south, we can get a realistic fee for him, ie what's happening with Petrov and Celtic.

[EIEIEIO]

Fantastic news for rovers. All is forgiven Steven.

[Wolverine]

Good news. Hope he hasnt read the rubbish that has been posted about him here

[AggyBlue]

Good, now I want ten goals this season from Reidy

[Presty On Tour]

quality news, those spuds journo's have more egg on their face!!!

neill will be next, bellamy has another 3 years left so it's not to bad though it would be nice if he put pen to paper on a new deal to stop the rumours.

[B.R.F.C]

We finished 6th in the league and are in Europe next year so he shouldn't need convincing to remain and so if he doesn't wish to remain a Rover we should sell him as soon as possible. I'm sure Sparky is as frustrated as I am with this shocking and disgusting lack of loyalty from Reid.

Thanks for the season Steven now sod off

My apologies Steven

Great to see a player pledging his future to the club like this. Hopefully a certain other player will follow suit

This is interesting! According to the press Hughes was going to have a "face to face" meating with Reid about his future. It seems like our brilliant manager have changed Reids mind. I think Hughes have told him that we will sign some quality players this summer in order to be a force both in the PL and the UEFA cup next season.

I'm feeling much more optimistic than just a few days ago..

It's probably a bit different sitting there in front of the big man than just sitting with your agent having your head filled with garbage.

Transcript of meeting...

MH 'I hear that you're thinking of leaving, Mr. Reid?'

SR Agent 'Well, my client...'

MH 'I'm not talking to you, son. Are you thinking of leaving, Mr. Reid?'

SR (strangled voice) 'No, Mr. Hughes never crossed my mind, sir.'

MH Smiling wryly 'Good lad'

I think you probably mean "re-gained" rather than "lost" don't you?

I think that the previous comment is heavily laced with sarcasm/irony?

Oops! Looking back I can see what you mean. Thanks for pointing that out; I have led a rather sheltered life

[AlanK]

This is interesting! According to the press .........

Is that the same press that have already transferred Pedersen and Reid?

[frosty]

[Ray-Von]

The Telegraph tonight reports that his agent is one Kevin Moran! A new one on me.
