New Manager is Peter Reid
By TheLongside.co.uk
November 19 2007
The Clarets are set to unveil Peter Reid as the new manager tomorrow according to various fans in the know and some late reports ready to be printed in tomorrow's newspapers. The TV pundit who has not been in management since January 2005 is also rumoured to be bringing in Adrian Heath as his assistant manager.
While he may be switching dugouts at Turf Moor since this picture in a friendly against Leeds a few years ago, will the Clarets fans be happy with his appointment. Let us know on our message board. |

I must admit, I didn't see that one coming,out of all the names linked he was way down on my list, although he has proved himself with Citeh and Sunderland a few seasons ago, time will tell how he performs for us, but I will give him a chance.

The jury's out on this one, but the pressure's surely on to deliver.
Play-offs have to be the target now, so let's see.

I still can't see confirmation anywhere.
Are we only going off the Daily Mail who have gotten their last 5 or 6 stories about Burnley wrong?

Youll look good mate.
Youve beat CM to actually naming him, perhaps the first BFC website to do so?

We'll look good hopefully. Not too bothered about beating anyone but it should help it be more believable when its official tomorrow. Bit of banter tomorrow if not but I get the feeling you're spot on.

Surely the story alone (plus some other tidbits of info) is enough faith.

I have no quarrel with Peter Reid as management chose him in their clairvoyance and sagacity provided he performs .He may have the experience of Premiership but Burnley wth less money are different .
