If anyone can genuinely convince me what Perry can offer that Reeves can't then I'm all ears.
Answers such as 'he played well against Stalybridge and Histon last year' won't do.
Gillespie is about 5'9
Reeves is about 5'9
Perry is about 6'2
Both the Lincoln centrebacks were about 6'3
maybe Sinnott thought he'd try and play someone capable of challenging in the air as opposed to two shorter players??
Also, i heard Reeves was working late plastering and didn't get to Moss Lane until 7pm and wasn't fully warmed up.
Perry had an afternoon modelling shoot but was at the ground for 6pm.
Fair point in principle about Perry's height.
However, I am 6 foot 3 but, like Perry I can't jump either.
He is no better an aerial threat than Reeves or Gillespie.
He brings nothing that Gillespie and Reeves can't bring but they do it 10 times better.
