Looking for info on these two. Firstly Billy Reid Jnr (as in son of Accies manager Billy Reid). He started at Clyde and I believe he had one or two first team appearances when Alan Kernaghan was the manager. When Reid took over first thing he done was free his son and he subsequently joined Accies (in our first season back in the First Division under Alan Maitland). Halfway through the season Accies released Reid and he returned to Clyde for the rest of that season only to be freed at the end of that season and not be heard of again. Anyone know anything about him? Did he, as I suspect, end up going junior? Also his cousin Chris Reid (not the goalkeeper) was also at Accies that season and was released at the same time, any info on him?

Second player I want to find out about is Wayne Rooney's younger brother John. When Man Utd signed Rooney they also signed his 13 year old brother who I have seen mentioned on more than one occassion as beng just as good a prospect as Wayne. He should be 17 now and I can't find out if he's still with Man Utd or not. I'm not confusing him with the other brother Graeme, who was also at Everton witH Wayne but gave up football to concentrate on boxing.

I have found a bit of info here - none of it is sourced or reliable though.

Pedant Alert! He was released when Kernaghan was still in charge, 6 months before Reid took over.
