Toon Toon black and white Reidy

Peter Reid in NUFC shirt

Never mind Roy Keane going to Sunderland - it looks like their old boss has finally saw sense!

It's true Peter Reid has traded red and white for black and white in a Blog on The Tyne exclusive!

However, Toon fans shouldn't worry too much because Reidy was out in the Balkans to cheer up our Army boys on national duty in Bosnia.

The picture features Geordie boy Lamby and pal - who asked the ex-Sunderland boss to don a Toon top for the day while he entertained the troops in the Balkans.

And Reidy was happy to oblige.

Reidy once famously sold Lee Clark to Fulham for pulling off a similar trick on his days on Wearside and monkeying around before the 1999 FA Cup final.

But perhaps its fair to say that the ex-England midfielder was merely doing his bit for his country.

What does the Toon Army think?
