Shame. I suspect he would have scored loads at Evostick level.

Genuine legend. Scored an unbelievable amount of goals and worked his socks off.

Good luck

166 goals in 278 (+54 sub) appearances. Exactly a goal every 2 games. That stat says enough.

Thank you and good luck at your next club.

Another great spin off in the period in our history that keeps on giving. Dropped 2nd game in so we could "have a look at nyall bell" for f**k sake. Then not deployed regularly or correctly.  Goodbye and thank you we'll not see the likes again in our life time.

By my calculations he is the second highest scorer of all time behind Jackie Swindells.  There is some doubt because we dont know all the scorers in the post war seasons when Walter Jones was knocking them in.

I think it looks like this:

Swindells 263
Reeves 166
Jeff Johnson 147
Graham Heathcote 147
Walter Jones 147

Amazingly Damien scored more than 100 Conference North goals for the club.  The second highest scorer is James Lawrie with 31 and then James Walshaw with 28
He also scored 10 FA Cup goals, behind only Jack Swindells on 15 in my life time; although Tabener did score 9 cup goals in 63-4
He matched Colin Littles 6 in the FA trophy, although this was way behind the mighty five Rogers, Johnson, Howard, Heathcote and Davison who all scored in double figures
His 41 in the Conference National is comparable with Graham Heathcote, Jeff Johnson, Barry Howard. John Rogers, Ken McKenna and Stuart Terry  although a long way behind Colin Little's 70

And his single goal in the FA Cup proper - to oust Barnsley - is one of those moments that will linger.

I am so glad I saw him roll back the years with a typical Reevsie finish against Kidderminster recently.  A true Alty legend

This.

Life goes on and not a huge surprise. Would imagine PP has replacements lined up.

Inevitable that Reevesy would move on this summer. My favourite goal is still that audacious effort at Brackley, but there are so many more. Wherever you finish up Damien, I wish you well.
