When Reeves plays it seems like we only have 10 men... remember Bradley Pritchard, he wasn't really a L1 footballer but he used to get into Sir Chris Powell's team because of the amount of running/tackling/harrying/simple passing he was willing to do.
Pritchard got plenty of stick, not from me. And he was very popular in the dressing room. Give me a Pritchard before a Reeves any day.
Bradley Pritchard always gave 100%, he just wasn't a very good footballer at League 1 level. Powell didn't do him any favours, keeping him in the team too long when his ability clearly didn't warrant it. I still have cold sweats remembering Bradley's performance at QPR away when Powell asked him to play as a winger
The fact that Pritchard's career dive bombed after he left Charlton sort of proved a point.
As Super says, its time for Reeves to shape up or ship out. At the moment the team picks itself through injuries, and even then Reeves hasn't really justified his place in it. How many good games has he had since he was fit?
He was quite good against Truro, and er, er, er, that's it.
I watched Reeves performance closely yesterday.
He just doesn’t influence a game enough, even against poor opposition. His lack of height & physical presence in this league doesn’t help. He is lightweight. Having seen Billy Clarke at the start of the season, Clarke is a better player.
I am struggling to understand why Robinson wanted Reeves so badly ?

227 posts above Reeves - and he has still done fvck all.
Last week he was about as effective as a one legged man in arse kicking contest.
Will he start against his old club MKD tomorrow ?

If he does he'll get a good kicking, same as last time. Clattered early in the game, didn't want to know after that. They know him well.
Better leave him out then. We can’t risk him getting injured at this vital stage of the season.
You're right Big Ben gets another chance, he'd better take it.
Probably my most disliked player in recent history. Genuinely useless.
Not according to the official website match report...
...Former Dons man Reeves looped a strike high and wide shortly afterwards and on 30 minutes he came close again. Aribo cut the ball back to him and, after shifting it onto his left foot, his curling strike was well blocked by defender Eliott Ward.
Reeves was being heavily involved in all of Charlton's good play and, with 32 minutes gone, he crossed for Bauer who powered a header over the crossbar...
Are they being just a bit fulsome in their praise? Surely not...
