    Set Pieces

    Interesting piece from Tim Wigmore on how set piece training is undervalued. It also included a link to this brilliant piece on Sheffield Utd's set pieces With Turner our only real target from set pieces, I'd love us to try and work on some of these moves - both the short free-kicks - that...
  2. Spud Taylor

    Does anyone know what Spud's up too these days? I saw him walking down Leigh Road on Thursday.

    Time for a change??

    I see that Spud Taylor has just received the grand order of the boot at Gillingham. Time for another wonderfully long thread about new(ish) managers we want to bring in?

    Spud

    Not enjoying things at Bradford, by all accounts. Doesn't sound like his heart is really in it. http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/football/teams/b/bradford_city/9121399.stm

    Memory Lane Jimmy Evans v Peter Taylor 2-6

    Two internationals go to head to hear, Welsh international Jimmy Evans (the first player to be capped at Southend?) and Peter Taylor who went onto play for England.

    Memory Lane Peter Taylor v Phil Chisnall 1:12 - poll added

    This one is probably tie of the round a future England player v a Busby babe and both answers to popular trivia questions.
  8. Another One For The Memory Box Palace At Home 1976??3

    another night similar the wolves game, we played palace at home on a tuesday night i think 76 or 77 and it was the return to roots hall of peter spud taylor the crowd was a now unbelievable 17,000. such was the interest in people wanting to see him and also the number of palace fans that had...
  9. Padova, am I the only one?

    Admittedly it was a pretty sparse crowd that night, but am I the only one who looks back on the second half of that game and remembers one of the greatest Blues' displays of all time? Fry had left us, and local hero Spud had taken his place, a 3-0 home defeat to WBA was a terrible injustice, but...

    Steve Morison/Stevenage

    Is he off to the Gills? Not a bad buy for us, and we have links with Spud. 41 goals in 65 games.
  11. Peter Taylor - Director of Football

    with Palace not exactly setting the championship alight this season so far... I'd imagine Mr 'Tangerine' Jordan's trigger finger is itching.... If Spud was to get the sack, I think Ron could do well to pursuade him to take up a Director of Football role with us. With the contacts he has in...

  13. You'll never walk alone ......

    No-one wants to knock Steve Tilson and the great job he has done, or knock the players who have got the club into the Championship so its not criticism to try make suggestions or point out things out. And Southend have got where they are trying to play the game the right way and theres a lot...

    A bit of Nostalgia...

    If I'm getting nostalgic over these, then some of you might too! [url="http://img425.imageshack.us/my.php?image=spud7li.jpg"]
  15. Hard luck Maher!

    "Spud" was on BBC Essex this morning saying that although he liked Kevin Maher there was no room in his squad for another player like him. Tough luck Kevin, Now **** or get off the pot!

    Strangest Set-Pieces

    Playing as Exter on PFYC, I remembered a game at The Hall against them (I think in our Div. 4 promo year) when they had a free kick and they employed a strange tactic. They swapped the ball around like it was a hot spud, then suddenly put it down just when the free kick taker was about to...
