'Monkey's Heed' Says Toon Match Was Best

I've always had a lot of time for Peter Reid 'Monkey's Heed'. I'll never forget a match at the Stadium of Shite (when he was Mackem boss) and he was thrust in front of the Sky TV cameras for a post-match interview. He was on the pitch as the Toon fans were kept behind for the usual safety reasons . so it was him - and about three and a half thousand Geordies. The singing was deafening "Peter Reid's got a f***in monkey's heed", and recording of the event showed the SKY TV interviewer trying to get himself a story, slagging off the Newcastle fans. But Reid would have none of it! "Hey listen," he said. "Look at my ears . look at this face . I look like a monkey. So don't have a go at them (Newcastle fans)." Good on yer Peter. And during today's BBC TV programme 'Football Focus' he was disgusted that Man Utd v Man City had been voted "Best Premiership Game Ever". Peter Reid: "Who voted for THAT game? Seriously, who votes? "Because they have got it wrong. "I was at that match, and no-way was that the best match. "Liverpool v Newcastle was. As simple as that!"
