    thought he was great when he first came, but then he was playing in midfield...... in defence I have a number of problems with him, firstly communication! he often goes for same ball as colgan, or other defenders and panics far to often. I think championship is one step to far for him as a centre half anyway!

    Final point, he isn't captain material for me either! I would have Kay or Hassel, or Wallwork if he makes it back to oakwell!

    what does anyone else think?

    think thats been very harsh to be honest, think reidys definatly captain material, from day one think hes been superb, and wi colgan, its because colgan does'nt comminicate wi defence

    RE: Harsh

    i agree on the point about going for the same ball as other players its happened a few times..however he is most definatly captain material when you look at the squad he stands out more than anyone else as some one who can captain a side (hassell is pretty quiet and kay isnt really experienced enough although he will be a awesome captain one day and should be captain on saturday providing reid isnt fit and he doesnt have the normal derby head on him e.g doncaster)

    I have to agree there matey. I have thought it for quite a while now. League One is his level IMO, and thought it last season. We had a poor defence and he was captain. Had it not been for the awful strikers in that league there is no way we would have been promoted. I do think he is capable of being captain, but not in this league. Again, decent League One captain, but I think Kay firstly and Bobby secondly are better options.

    players on the same team going for the same ball = collision and often embarrinsing balls up leading to a goal!!!!!!!
