Some friends of ours (Oxford fans, boo) know the Tozer family, as he lives in Daventry. In his house he has his Swindon match shirt framed and on the wall. Apparently he's really proud of his time at Swindon. I don't know him personally. but they have told me he's a very humble down to earth person.
Ollie who does the shirt restorations recently restored a shirt for Tozer. https://twitter.com/OJRestorations/status/1695061921441943912?t=_GA8kEhy_7zQG5guIP640g&s=19 |

I genuinely concerned for the people of Crawley. Seismic activity caused by chest thumping likely at dangerous levels.

I know Reed tanked under Super Scotty L but so did many others. However, given he supposedly wanted to stay and we reneged on a contract offer, I can’t think when we last allowed a player with such a high ceiling to leave for peanuts to a team no better than us. Absolutely mad decision. He’d be a massive part of this squad this year.

Under Lindsey, yes. Under Garner he looked one of our best midfielders for a decade! |

He was decent under Garner, shite under Lindsay.
All his mates left too so that probably had something to do with it also.
Wonder if we turned down a bid from higher and he got the hump about it?
Came back fattest player in pre season too

A good player but also one that needs a system almost build around him.
You can't really play him next to somebody else. It doesn't seem to work.
Under Garner he played on his own. Under Clough at Mansfield they play a midfield diamond and he's at the base of it. Again by himself.
Pretty unique footballer at this level.

Reed wanted out - he was never sticking around.

He's specifically signed for their u21 side, whatever that means. |
