Peter Reid gets replacement medal
PETER REID’S act of self-sacrifice in auctioning off one of his FA Cup medals to help pay Plymouth staff will be honoured by the FA with a replacement gong.
An extra 1986 FA Cup runners-up medal has been commissioned after Reid’s selfless act just six months before he was sacked by the Devon club. He will be presented with it at an appropriate time.
Reid had also paid the club’s heating bill out of his own pocket in a bid to keep Argyle afloat during his time at the helm.
