I’m a little bit worried for him tbh
He’s only come good under a manager who knows how to utilise him to the best of his abilities.

Good luck to him. He deserves League football after his last two seasons.

Whilst I agree with that, it could also be said that his time and potential was wasted by previous managers who didn't know how to utilise him and he could have been playing at a much higher level earlier on in his career.

Good luck to him and I hope he does well. There is a possibility that we may have had the best of him though.

All agreed then, we wish him all the best, hope he does well but he might not lol

I’m sure he’d get a great welcome if he ever visited Plainmoor,,,
In whatever capacity

Did we get £475,000 for Reid?! I thought he was out of contract and left on a free? Do you think we will see him back at the Gulls this year?

“Reid joined League Two club Mansfield Town on a two-year contract on 23 June 2020 for a club record fee of £475,000.[15] He scored his first goal for Mansfield on 10 November 2020 in an EFL Trophy group game against Scunthorpe United.[16]”

Wikipedia vandalism.

Can't imagine for one minute we got £475.000. He certainly wasn't worth anywhere near that.

More like £47.50

I heard we got 250 Nectar points for Jamie Reid

Not bad for a forward who couldn't head a ball, or score consistently from the spot.
