Episode 29 | Paul Reid

Derek chats to Sunderland Academy Manager Paul Reid.

Paul's story in the game is an interesting one. He burst onto the scene at his hometown club Carlisle United and his performances there seen some of the country's biggest clubs chase his signature, he chose Rangers but things didn't quite work out for him at Ibrox.

He managed to carve a career down south, skippering Northampton Town at the tender age of 21 and went on to play for a host of clubs including Barnsley, Scunthorpe and Colchester as well as representing England at under-19 and under-20 level.
