Could be all the sandwiches, fried chicken, and penguin bars he has stashed down there.

Actually I am watching on a stream and it's hard to pick him out, can't say I have positively identified him yet.
Getting into the game now. Nice bit of play on the edge of the box there. This is a good game. "Cruyff" turn by Reid. Brilliant stuff.
Bit of praise on BBC text updates:
From Ben Cerasale on Twitter: "Blackpool don't deserve to be losing here! Reid and Puncheon are having a stormer out there, some terrific touches, love it!"
2040: Taxi for Lampard, thanks to a delicious turn from Andy Reid. Cue cheers from the home fans.
go on fat andy!! good first half, started to run the show towards the end
Thought he was doing next to nothing myself bar one shot at goal which went well over.
i was impressed with his passing, and that great turn in his own half, cant understand why he can't keep the weight off, he was brilliant at the start of last season
Chelsea 3 up. This could be 6 or 7 now.
Hauled off with about 20? mins left.
Blackpool get one back for 1-3.
Blackpool won the last 20 minutes 1 nil.
How did Andy do, if you apply Paul Ince's slide rule?
How was his tackling? And harrying?
Is that a 'how' or a 'where'?
I was watching the match on and off and didn't see anything significant really.
He seemed to be playing 'in the hole' when I saw him (which was rarely).
Anyway here is his citation in the match report.
James Beattie and Andy Reid's vast inflated super-shorts getting us back under way.
Blackpool have a free kick. It's all Tangerine right now. Reid humps it in..
Blackpool send on Ormerod and Phillips for Carney and Andy Reid's vast, billowing tent-like shorts.
So one mention for a free kick and two mentions for the size of his shorts.
Maybe he will get a sponsorship deal with Evans...
I thought he played well first half. Some nice switches of play and always demanded the ball from his team mates. Faded a bit in the 2nd half and I switched off when it went to 2 nil.
He'd be a better option for us than Andy K.
heard he was watching the Macedonia game in McGoverns pub in Gorey. Someone ring The Sun
released by Blackpool
Released by Blackpool
What now for man raised by pastry? Could be a good opportunity to resurrect career in the Championship.
He didn't shine for the Blunts when he went on loan to them but are we now saying he's a Championship player? Shame because I remember him at Forest and he was absolute class. Can't understand why he never established himself fully in the Premiership as he was someone whom I thought had it all. Attitude, weight or perhaps I thought he was better than he was. :(
It's no good just being a talented footballer. You need to be an athlete too, and professional in your attutude.
Can't see any Prem team coming in for him now - he's never done it there regularly despite opportunities at Spurs, Sunderland and Blackpool. I'm increasing thinking Reid is destined to be a Championship superstar. But I wouldn't rule out him doing an Adam and taking a team up, establishing himself from there.
Go back to Forest Reidy!!!
Nice lad and has an attitude to play for Ireland that alot of our younger players could do to take heed of. However, the lad has had so many chances at this stage. At best he needs to get himself a championship club and try and work his way back up but not going to happen imo. Im surprised Bpool have let him go, considering they only bought him in January and that they are now relegated. Surely he wasnt on big wages and also he would be useful to them in the Championship.
It's a disgrace Trap hasn't called him up for Macedonia.
his career is over
There's hope for Andy Reid yet. Ronaldo just came on for Brazil for his final 15 minutes of football. He hasn't played since January and is as big as a house. Having, said that he's had three decent chances already.
One of the best players I've ever seen so he deserves a good send-off. Saw him get two of his World Cup goals in 2002 and another two in 2006. His 98th and final cap tonight.

You don't push him off the ball.
thought blackpool would keep him as a replacement for adam who will surely leave this summer
Getting to look like Maradona, a wee beard would set it off nicely.
Reid poised for Forest return: http://www.skysports.com/story/0,195...012641,00.html
I see Andy Reid played the first half for Forest (4-0 for Burnley) and was then substituted. 2nd half 1-1. Might have been injured but not tearing up any trees there. Why Forest got rid of Billy Davies and hired the plank McLaren I have no idea.
He came on for the last half hour for Forest and crossed for the second goal to bring things level, and then linked up Greg Cunningham for the winning goal. Sounds like he changed the game for Forest.
