I don’t know if we can quite classify these as ‘the good old days’, seeing as some of them only took place in the last decade, but I think we can give it a shot.
Because they certainly were some fun times it has to be said.
Yesterday marked the 38th birthday of former Nottingham Forest midfielder Andy Reid, and that incredible left-foot of his. Reid came through the academy at the City Ground and had two spells with us through his career, racking up over 250 appearances in the Garibaldi, scoring plenty of goals and many more assists in that time.
Is Andy Reid in Nottingham Forest's top 25 players?
Yes
No
To mark his birthday, the club decided to put out this video of some of his best moments during his time with us, and it left fans with memories flooding back, which meant they had plenty of nice words to say about him and what he brought to the club.
The most magical left foot I’m ever likely to see in the Garibaldi. Thanks for the memories @AndyReidXI #nffc https://t.co/JiDFnbb6gM

What about you? What do you think of when Reid’s name is mentioned?
