Title: Alan Reeves
Post by: blinkpip on Tuesday, August 23, 2005, 21:49:09
I feel really sorry for the guy. His carear is prob over as a footballer.
A broken leg  :cry:
You could really hear it snap, when he went in for the challage.
And fair play to Frank Talia, who help.

Agree totally, that's his career over now.

Wish him all the best, and hope his coaching career goes well for him.

Talia must be a good mate and would have been sorry for him, just like we all are.
However I want to know why the ref didn't give a free-kick or even just stop play

Our assistant manager and one of our main coaches out with a broken leg.  :(

Good Post.  Reeves has been amazingly loyal to this club and has done so much.  I hope he has a fast recovery.

Didnt hear aa snap, but said straight away to my friend that Reeves looks in real pain and isnt a player who stays down for no reason, playing career almost certainly over but the plus side to come out of it was Charlie CP. Looks good enough for backup if not a starting place.


REEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEVES!

I feel more sorry about reeves than the actual game.


Title: Alan Reeves
Post by: Luci on Tuesday, August 23, 2005, 22:05:49
Definitely, even as a coach, a broken leg must be depressing especially as we all know the guy has a genuine love for the game and this club.  Not being involved will be hard I would imagine for Reeves.

Best of luck to him but at least this didn't happen earlier on in his career, wish him a speedy recovery and hope to see him back coaching pronto.

I think that Reeves doesn't get enough plaudits. The man ought to be given a medal. I hope that the man stays on as assistant manager and I would welcome the man as a manager and I hope that the man is never forgotten here.

It also makes me feel slightly guilty when it got to the stage where Reeves didn't play at home games cos some of the fans gave him so much stick.

I love reeves, a top professional not the most talented but very loyal and honest.I say testimonial at the end of the season, hes been here a long time and blatantly will be next manager...


Title: Alan Reeves
Post by: Tails on Tuesday, August 23, 2005, 22:36:10
We should all give Reeves a nice big hug.


Title: Alan Reeves
Post by: Johno on Tuesday, August 23, 2005, 22:43:20
i would...a manly one obviously!

the guy is a legend.

we all dream of a team of alan reeves, a team of alan reeves, a team of alan reeves (to the tune of we all live in a yellow submarine)


Title: Alan Reeves
Post by: sonicyouth on Tuesday, August 23, 2005, 22:45:47
I'd give him a big man hug. In fact, if I see him on Saturday I'm going to.

Our best defender out...  Ohhh bugger.  Fair play to Talia, especially after the stick we gave him 2 seasons ago at home.

Fallon is a ledge no matter what, fucking promote him to player/manager.  I think I love him more than I ever loved Parkin at the moment, if only he was English.  He's just brilliant:

a).  Scored against Bristol
b).  Scored a special goal against Bristol
c).  He responds to fans chanting his name
d).  He's fucking gorgeous - Darius Danesh lookalike
e).  He's a lanky cunt

i feel really really sorry for Reeves. Fucking magic guy, seems nice as anything.

I have always felt sorry for Reeves the way he was treated at one stage and was quite ashamed of some of the fans at the time.  He really is a top bloke and deserves as much respect as one can give.

Wish him all the best and a speedy recovery.  He has been a great servant and deserves all the plaudits you guys have given him.  We should definately give him a lift on Saturday!

Yeah get well soon mr reeves, he has been a great servant to the club and it is a shame that has probably ended his playing career

although it was a shit performance ast night and im pissed off, fuck the result ! what happened to reeves is what mattered, poor bloke!

The injury made a miserable night even worse.

A few us in the Arkells didn't know who it was at first. Was concerned for whomever it was (A for the injury and B for the impact on our squad) but it felt a lot worse when we saw that it was Reeves.

The guy is a legend, always wears his heart on his sleeve and hopefully will be back as it would be a huge shame if that was his last game for us. He deserves a much better send off than that.

Get well soon Reeves

Poor Reeves,we knew when he didn't get up it was bad news cause he's not the kind of player who fakes injury.He was playing well too,keeping mooney in his pocket.

A big round of REEEEEVES is in order on Saturday.  Better than singing Super Sammy Parkin anyway  :?

REEVES = legend
Testimonial definitely needs to be done, for him and also for the money it will bring to the club!!!

reeves4england (manager now though obviously :cry: )

well the worse has been confirmed. broken his tibia.

Post by: mattboyslim on Wednesday, August 24, 2005, 12:31:38
Agree with all.  I admit that i sceptic when he was at his worst but he used to come to the hotel i worked at every weekend a few years ago, and is a genuine chap.  Not necessarily the best player but a 100%er, and as he got older he began to justify his lack of pace.

 :old: I propose a round robin Alan Reeves trophy with town AFC Wimbledon and Rochdale his former clubs playing.

ABOUT BLOODY TIME SOME MORE OF YOU JOIN THE REEVES FAN CLUB!!

Ive been sporting those 6 letter on the back of my shirt without anyone other than Reeves 4 King and occasionally Dave M Russell helping to encourage the legend!!

His career aint over... they said that 20 years ago when he turned 40 didnt they?

Get in Big Al!!

Post by: DiV on Wednesday, August 24, 2005, 19:51:56
Please dont take this the wrong way, but In a way I'm glad it wasnt one of our other players....not that I'd wish it on Reeves because the guy is a legend and has been here years, but imagine if it was Ifil, Pook or Fallon....

Oh well, get well soon Reevesy


Title: Alan Reeves
Post by: DMR on Wednesday, August 24, 2005, 20:01:43
if it had happened to ifil i'd have done a little jig, he's a useless cunt get him out


Title: Alan Reeves
Post by: Kinky Tom on Wednesday, August 24, 2005, 21:51:31
In all honesty I was hoping it would be Heath, at least he's only on loan, and we could have sent him back and got someone else in to replace him, as it is we've lost a player who was looking to be increasingly important this season, and just to top it off he's our assistant manager.

It's a bloody disaster for the team, but this guy simply does not deserve to have his career ended in this way it's just crue.

Lets have a poll to see who we would most like to see break a leg!


Title: Alan Reeves
Post by: McLovin on Thursday, August 25, 2005, 13:17:45
I vote for Thorpe.


Title: Alan Reeves
Post by: walrus on Thursday, August 25, 2005, 14:01:39
I vote King  :evil:

I had Reeves on the back of my shirt last year.  See what happens when I stop wearing the shirt?  Before that I had Mooney, and before that I had Invincibile.

Hate to say it, but Cureton's poor form thus far is probably my fault...  Me and JMH should be banned from the CG for life.

Am I the only one who likes Thorpe then?  I think he's quality!  His finish against Oldham was perfect, and I've had no definite evidence that he's been whinging etc.


Title: Alan Reeves
Post by: Spud on Thursday, August 25, 2005, 14:07:37
But he gets the ball, loses it to the defender and then commits GBH or just stands there and lets the defender do as he pleases.

Sounds like 3/4 of the Swindon Town team at the moment to be honest...
