I can't imagine many or any of the 'no' votes will have been an easy decision. Certainly not for me.
But YB has (rightly) set a very high bar here. As others say, if Paul Clark isn't in, others are going to have to do really well!
I loved Clarky , he was at the very start of my time watching Southend and yes for me a Southend legend purely for his desire and what he did for the club, but I've been hard and decided I need ability as well and not just a feel good emotional link with the player, hence why for me, Barrett is a no as well.
But , no arguments , love these type of differences of opinion on this forum, it's what makes it is.
