As football enters the twenty-first century, it is an ideal time
for supporters to reflect on the players and personalities who have
made Southend United Football Club such a widely-respected name in
professional football during the last century. These pages feature
100 of the greatest names in the club's long history. Those
selected include stalwarts noted for their longevity and record
breaking, such as Sandy Anderson, Alan Moody, Billy Best and Roy
Hollis. Gifted players who spent only a short time at Southend but
contributed much to the folklore of the club also make the top 100.
For example, Jimmy McAlinden, Eddie Firmani and Mike Marsh, all
club record signings of their respective eras, qualify for the
final list. Goalscoring masters who dominated the club's history
are chosen, like Harold Halse, Jimmy Shankly, Sammy McGory, Richard
Cadette, David Crown and Brett Angell. Goalkeeping legends such as
Billy Moore, Ted Hankey, Harry Threadgold, Mervyn Cawston and Paul
Sansome are included. Defensive heroes George Molyneux, Peter
Watson, Tony Bentley and Micky Stead also earn a place in the list.
Certain players who encompass the spirit of the club, such as Dave
Robinson, Ronnie Pountney, Paul Clark, Peter Butler and Chris
Powell are also featured here. Finally the footballing genius that
is Stan Collymore graces these pages and the front cover, despite
making only 33 appearances in a Blues shirt. Each of these players
and many more are profiled, with detailed biographical and
statistical records. Supporting the text are portrait and action
shots, some of which have never been seen before. Compiled by two
life-long supporters on behalf of all Southend United fans, this
superb book salutes the 100 greatest players and rewards them for a
century of wonderful memories.
