He's certainly well connected. Not sure why he hasn't been writing about the stuff OSB and myself, along with several others, have all been banging on about...

Les is a Coventry City fan firstly, been to many games with him home and away - he is the political journalist for the Coventry Telegraph - he worked in London for a national, The Guardian (I think) He is highly thought of as an investigative reporter. and on a personal note a top bloke.

I am sure he is a top bloke and as a good journalist, seems to have his sources.

However I may be wrong but was it not him who ran the 'exclusive' regarding the debenture and AVRO on here. That we all now understand the significance of. That was discovered by OSB and BSB then informed the CET.

Who as a result did a token interview with TF got fobbed off.

They then got a load more info from OSB then ran the exclusive on the grounds that they had been working in this for months. Yet the info was just everything OSB had found?

The question by the OP was who is Les Reid - I know him so I replied...all the other stuff you mention I have no knowledge of - but is there not a reply further up suggesting that he has not used this stuff that has been found. I am not sure what the point is your making?

I have just sent a copy of my letter to the Football League to The Guardian newspaper, in the hope it will be of interest to Les Reid or one of their journalists. I have already posted a copy of my letter on another thread, letters to football league if anyone wants to see it.

Chins up the battle continues.

Les is a diehard Evertonian who saw the opportunity to jump on the City bandwagon during 87, he still has his beloved Everton subbuteo team and Asa Hartford poster taking pride of place in his bedroom. He wears make-up and leather trousers in the privacy of his home and drinks cammomile tea. He is what a northerner may refer to as "a bit of a poofter".

You seem very intimate with the guy, perhaps you can coerce him?
