Having originally made his debut under Chris Burns as a substitute in the County Cup on September 21st 2004 he was restricted to appearances from the bench before making his full debut in a league cup defeat at home to Paulton Rovers in the following January. Whilst his former youth team comrades Eddie Rimmer and Andy Varnham failed to make an impact on the first team Jamie continued to impress Burns and began to make the step up into senior football the following season and whilst he featured more as a right back than in his favoured midfield role he began to find the net with his first goal at home to Northwood in a 4-1 win on October 8th 2005. His postition on the flank didn't really do him any favours as he had a tendancy to react to heckling from supporters and began to show signs of petulance not only off the pitch but on it too, resulting in a spate of bookings. The goals continued to flow and by the end of the season he'd netted three times, including memorable strikes from outside the penalty area away at Mangotsfield and "home" at Swindon Supermarine in a league cup tie against Cirencester Town. The 2006/07 had an excellent start for Jamie with him netting a spectacular winner in the last minute at home to Maidenhead but his disciplanary problems continued with a red card for dissent in the FA Trophy at Tiverton. He made amends to some extent by scoring the winner in the penalty shootout in the replay three days later. At the end of the campaign he'd doubled his seasons goal tally with six, including one in the league at Tiverton from a move which he started and finished underlining his quality as a pass and move type midfielder with vision and an eye for goal. The 2007/08 season will be vital for Jamie to see if he has the ability to calm his temperament and turn his raw talent into whats needed to give himself a future in the game.   "The Boy's a bit special" Q & A's with Reidy Name : Jamie Reid DoB : 20/04/88 Birthplace : Gloucester Playing Position : Midfield Other teams played for : Hardwicke Nickname : Reidy or "le sulk" Team(s) Supported : Wolverhampton Wanderers Strengths : Heading & Shooting Weaknesses : Concentration How do you keep yourself fit for football? 100% in training I play a bit like : Paul Ince Heroes : Bobby Moore, George Best Highlight : Scoring winning goal on opening day of this season at home against Maidenhead United Lowlight : Being the shown the red card at Tiverton Honours : Youth League Champions and runners up, Cup Finalists 3 times Injuries : Dislocated fracture of left ankle Best player played with : Chris Burns Toughest opponent : Alex Russell Best friend at club : Lyndon Tompkins (geek) or Tom Webb Favourite Music : Indie, Oasis Favourite Movies(s) : Mike Bassett-Football Manager Favourite TV Programme : Eastenders!
