Player profile - Paul Reid

Paul Reid

Born 19.1.1968, Oldbury, Height 5'9, Weight 10st 8 Signed From Bury , free transfer Other Clubs Oldham, Huddersfield, Bradford, Leicester and Bury.

Reid was popular with the Bury fans because of his hard-tackling nature and never-say-die spirit. Occasionally prone to the reckless tackle.

Reid has also scored a few vital goals for Bury, particularly in the derby with his former club Oldham, where he celebrated by dashing 90 yards to gesture the score at the visiting fans - 2-2 I believe it was … After a poor start in 1999, Reid shaved his head a la Roy Keane, which immediately led to a spate of bookings and a sending off against Cambridge. While not exactly setting the world alight (though you fear he might if given chance). Reid's has a tendency accumulate bookings like most of us accumulate meals. For Bury he was suspended by mid September!
