Bobby Reid

Always rated Bobby Reid when quite a few were willing to pay the taxi fair out of Bristol. He has a hunger and further credit where credit's due to LJ's masterstroke in playing him as a forward.

Once he got to 20 goals in that season he was made. Poor decision to go to Cardiff but really pleased for him now.

Any idea why he added his middle name all the time when he left us? 

Decordova is his mother's name. I don't know if things were a bit strained between him and his Dad or he just wanted to aknowledge his mother, not sure if she raised him alone?  I guess the move was a perfect  'fresh start' time to do so. I remember reading something about this at the time. I'm not 100% sure but it's alone those lines.

Hasn't his sister, the politician always used it? I wonder if he has always had it but felt it wasn't a footballer's name? Nowadays it seems everyone has one though, some (Like Cam Pring) still don't use their full name for some reason.

It's exactly that, his Mum raised him by herself and he has no contact with his Dad (or at least didn't at the time).
