A Southend United XI who all played for another club

[C C Csiders]

See if you can come up with a Southend United XI where the players have all played for another particular club. I would think the Southend XI who have also played for Crystal Palace would take some beating:

John Burridge

Gary Stebbing
Leon Cort
Adam Barrett
Chris Powell

Barry Silkman
Glenn Pennyfather
Anton Otulakowski
Peter Taylor

Dougie Freedman
Stan Collymore

I am too young to remember Bobby Kellard - ancient SZ members might see fit to replace one of the midfielders with him?

What other XI's can be created and any to beat Palace?

Thinking cap is on.

That isn't a bad side. Bobby was much better than Silkman.

That is a very tough question....

I presume Daryll Flahavan is on the bench? Bart didn't play for Palace did he?

Leyton Orient:

Glen Morris
Christian Hyslop
Adam Barrett
Mark Warren
Andy Harris

Andy Ansah
Andy Sussex
Dave Martin
Ricky Otto

Lee Barnard
Richard Cadette

OK, the defence is a bit shaky, but the midfield and strikeforce is awesome.

That is good. You could improve things by moving Dave Martin tothe back instead of Warren and going for Carl Hutchings in midfield. It's a Warren vs Hutchings toss-up as to where Martin plays to improve the line-up.

Could he play wide-right though? When Silkman was at his best (admittedly 10 years before joining us) he was a good player.

and a Millwall one

Paul Sansome

Paul Roberts
Mark Phillips
Dave Cusack
Jamie Stuart

Ken Jones
Dave Martin
Leke Odunsi
Anton Otulalowski

Neil Harris
Theo Robinson


Which I think is amazing.

I liked Warren - purely for the Swansea game. Hutchings was just a bit nothingy.

You could say that!

Actually did Dean Austin play for Palace at some stage? If so, he replaces Stebbing to make Place look altogether stronger.

There must be a good Barnet team in theer somewhere? Thinking a midfield of Mark Gower, Jonathan Hunt, Nicky Bailey and Lee Sawyer looks good. A potentially useful Gills and Cambridge United too I would think?

Only about 140-odd games. :winking:

Haven't Palace got a midfielder from here that left at the end of the season with Barrett?

And I was thinking about Barnard - but that was porcelain and not crystal ................. :facepalm:

Hi Dean,

Welcome to the forums.

Stuart O'Keefe - but would hardly get into that midfield.

Barnet:

Steve Collis

Mick Bodley
Guy Butters
Peter Cawley


Mark Gower
Phil Gridelet
Nicky Bailey
Jonathan Hunt

Dave Regis
Gary Hooper
Dougie Freedman

West Ham:

Martyn MargetsonLawrie Leslie
Paul Brush
Chris Powell
Christian Dailly
Chris Coyne
Peter Butler
Mike Marsh
Junior Stanislas
Steven Clark
Freddy Eastwood
Jeroen Boere

Margetson was admittedly bending the rules slightly (he's on West Ham's coaching staff) but I couldn't think of a keeper who'd played for both teams.

Take your pick from Lawrie Leslie or Brian Rhodes
