    McAlinden and Inniss

    We have got previous for this from wikipedia: In 1948 Southend United signed McAlinden from Stoke City for a fee of £8,000. He continued to play for United until 1954 and during his time with the club he served as club captain. He also became something of a cult hero among the club's fans and...
  2. Introduction

    An old supporter of the Blues I look forward to reading comments on Shrimperzone. My memories go back a long way and I also remember Harry Threadgold way back in the 1950s. Others of note were Jimmy McAlinden, Kevin Baron, Tommy Tippett, Roy Hollis and one of my all time favourites Albert...

    Best first-names to play for us - a poll series

    Although we've been blessed with players who are recognisable by just their first name - Stan/Freddy/Rio - there are a number of players who share the same first name - and I think the best way of choosing the best John or Steve is by poll. So: I've narrowed a list of men's names down to the...

    Memory Lane Aldershot game off Old News

    Not to make light of the fiasco of yesterday, history tends to repeat itself, the game at Aldershot is certainly proof of this as the following from the 1949-50 season proves: Div.3 (South) Saturday 19th November 1949 Aldershot v Southend United Abandoned. This match is best forgotten, it was...

    Memory Lane Jimmy McAlinden v Sammy McCrory Rd 1:1 - poll now added

    Our first tie of the Battle of Southend's Greatest Players (pre-1980) pits two internationals who played for the same country and I think both played for the club in the 1950s. They may have even been team-mates. So what made Jimmy McAlinden and Sammy McCrory so great? What memories do people...

    SZ's Southend United Hall of Fame - 5th round of nominations

    You should know the rules by now. Paul Clark looks like missing out on the first ballot by the narrowest of margins, so will be amongst the favourites to be nominated as his supporters seek to right that wrong. With 3 nominations record scorer Roy Hollis might also feature, and I remain...
