Contents

Reid started his senior career with Hibernian after joining from youth side Renfrew Victoria. He was loaned out four times to Queen's Park (twice), East Fife and Greenock Morton; before being released and signing for Morton's rivals St Mirren. Reid stayed at the Buddies for three years, with a short loan spell at Albion Rovers, before being released in 2008.
