He led Watford a merry dance in the first half.Quote:

(Interested to see young Sean Murray appear as sub for Watford having scored two mid-week. Almost scored the winner).
Isn't Lewis McGugan, who scored Watford's peach of an equaliser, also eligible to play for us?
Yep, I think it's his father who was born in Ireland.Quote:

He didn't fade, true genius (like love) does not fade away, he just wasn't as outstanding as he was in the first half. Reid, like all the Forest players, had to roll up their sleeves and do the graft.Quote:

Andy Reid "looks really good, looks like he's lost a few pounds" scores a free kick, 3 in 3 for him. #callhimup........
free kick here, bad camera work though

Does Reid merit a place in squad/team currently? Made his Ireland senior debut 10 years ago and 31 years old now though amazingly still 2 months younger than Hoolahan.
Yes he does
Realistically if he was to return would he be playing a more central midfield role? Is it far to say Wes and himself are extremely similar type players - which player currently is more superior then? I only get snippets from Championship matches....Quote:

I think you can only compare by trying. We really have little idea what either can now bring to an Ireland shirt although Wes gave a good performance against Georgia.Quote:

If you believed all the negative 'hype' of recent years, he certainly was a wide midfielder...
:rolleyes:
He created Forests second goal from a free kick, swung into the far post and the defence put it into their own net.Quote:

Found some championship stats here, I know you are all big fans of stats.

It shows Andy Reid is the 3rd best player in the World................ of championship football.
I though he got two assist in his last match but it only shows one there so I guess I was wrong.
However the Forest site says two assists so maybe I was right :D
If they had that extra assist in their stats it might put Andy in the number one spot,
he is on 7.80 and number one is 7.94, I think an assist would be worth more than the difference of 0.14
Quite a few other Irish in the listing including Richard Keogh at no 28.

Andy celebrates his centenary foot.ie page with a late equaliser for Forest.
What can we say in praise about this player that hasn't already been said?
If he's in the squad for Germany will he have to do another initiation song given it's been so long since he last played for us?
He might go for this if so.
