Was not expecting to see this when I woke up today. Shocked by it thats for sure. Spoke some great words when at the dinner back in May and seemed a great bloke then. From reading things on here seems he's been supporting the club in many ways over the past months and to be sacked is a shame! Best of luck with with whatever happens next in his life.

Southampton (a) seems such a very, very long time ago.

Ah yes, Roy of the Rovers stuff...

I liken Peter Reid to Rory Fallon - both thoroughly decent blokes by all accounts but ultimately neither of them could do the job that was expected of them. I get it that PR made loads of sacrifices and had to work under some extreme circumstances but from what I could see on the pitch he was very short on tactical know how. For those people that say he hasn't been given a chance to put a decent team together I remind you that when we were fighting for survival last season he had a half decent team. Certainly a team that should have been able to avoid the drop and if people are honest with themselves they'll agree to that. The fact that we went down I believe was largely due to PR's tactical ineptitude. There's no doubting the guy is a decent man who has conducted himself in a thoroughly dignified manner but we shouldn't let ourselves be blinkered by that. I thank him most sincerely for his humanitarian input but feel that the decision is a correct one. Best wishes Mr Reid.

Very saddened by this news. Can't imagine there's anyone better to get us out of the mess we are in.

I've not read all 17 pages of this thread yet, however, this whole thing stinks IMO.

No-one could have done any better than Reid during the last 15 months. If it wasn't for the shambles behind the scenes he would have kept us in L1, Administration put paid to that. He has had all (almost all) of his best players sold from under him and been unable to adequately replace them. We have replaced a team of underachievers, with a team of near pre-pubescent's. He was ham strung before he started and has continued to be undermined by the shambles of an admin process. Brenda should hang his head, Ridsdale should hang his head, the previous board should collectively hang their heads. Hopefully Brent will see the good that has been done by Peter Reid and have a word about biding his time and completing the project once he takes over. He deserves the chance to continue this.

I've never been so ashamed to be an argyle fan.

Reid is a Legend.

Some of these posts in this thread astound me. No matter what has happened / will happen in the past, present or future, i will never, ever be ashamed to be a PAFC fan.

Has anyone been watching SSN recently? apparently Reidy was on and said he was going to sue Argyle? and if he wins he's going to 'turn us around'?? that is what I have just heard from a friend

Doubt it, if it were true I'm pretty sure it would be known my more people.

Exactly what I what I was thinking

The Riddler is obviously an Excretia fan![/quote]
Credit him with a wee bit of taste.

Thanks Peter Reid for all your efforts. I'm sorry it's ended in this manner.

I also find it hard to believe he would sue Argyle...

As he himself said, repeatedly: 'the most important thing is that we save this fantastic Club'

Not 'sue this fantastic Club'

Hope there will be a few songs for him being sang on saturday!

I dont really know what to say about all this. Bit shocked and ill comment in a few days. When i can rest on it. But maybe it was right is my inital thinking.
