Iorfa is like a significantly upgraded graded version of him Was good for the time. We have moved onwards and upwards but he was solid in league 1 that was his level and he never let us down.

Lombardo Posted March 22, 2019 Share Posted March 22, 2019 After the move from centre half to LB he was exactly what we needed in that team.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Should have been given a British passport soon as he kicked his first ball for Wednesday. Surely he would qualify for Jamaica, with Jermaine Johnson being his father and all that? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

unkastav Posted March 22, 2019 Share Posted March 22, 2019 (edited) Some great Reda memories. That last min goal at pridewank park to send the massive crazy in the sun wiping out 3 blackburn players in one challenge right infront of me celebrating in the north after chrissy o’gradys header beat the pigs, REDA REDA sung loud and proud the previously mentioned reda fan appearance at derby, takes off his leather jacket to unveil an Owls top I miss my Reda Edited March 22, 2019 by unkastav Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Because he's on a screw at Eastlieigh, bankrolled non league club. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dan™ Posted March 22, 2019 Share Posted March 22, 2019 Only Hooper and Forestieri in our current squad have a better goals-to-games ratio than Reda did. Well, and now Iorfa, but I'm yet to be convinced that he's not just Reda in disguise. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But i think the fact he hasn't played league football for years tells you all you need to know. Blimey !! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

eckington owl Posted March 22, 2019 Share Posted March 22, 2019 Was immense for us at times. Virtually unstoppable on the ball and in the air. Can’t remember who it was against but I remember a game at Hillsborough, him cantering down the left with the ball from deep in our half and smashing one in. Also the gif of him, Dave Jones, Ryan Lowe and one other in the car was outstanding! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think that's quite true, I think the reason he ended up there is because they were the highest-ranked club willing to offer him a contract that wasn't just pay-as-you-play.

There was a moment when he just charged at Kebé down by the corner flag and ran him over like a fully-loaded wagon. He pulled up in his next game against Macclesfield in the cup just before half time and I had a horrible feeling in the pit of my stomach that we wouldn't see him again. It still saddens me that it was proved right. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
