Vote for who you want to win. Poll closes at midnight.
Kevin Maher (Supported by the great manor15 King Kev won group A with 75 votes. After beginning his career with Tottenham Hotspur, Maher moved to Southend United on a free transfer on 23 January 1998. He quickly broke into the first team, making 18 appearances for the first-team that season. During the 1998–99 season, Maher scored his first career goal in a 1–1 draw with Rochdale. Over the next 10 years Maher was a virtual ever-present for Southend, rising to be team captain and subsequently club captain. During this time he made more than 400 appearances for the club, and captained Southend to promotion twice, from League Two to the Championship, in successive seasons including a fine display in the League 2 play-off final. Maher also captained his side to a famous victory over Manchester United in arguably the clubs most successful spell from when he lead the Blues out at the first ever cup final until the famous victory over Manchester United. In the 07-08 season he had to look elsewhere for first tem football and joined Oldham. The fans favourite scored 22 goals for the Shrimpers in over 400 appearances.)
Ron Pountney (Matt the Shrimp's choice was the runner up in Group I with 37 votes. He managed to score 35 goals in 403 appearances during a 10 year spell at Southend. A stylish midfielder, he always gave his all and still lives locally as a decorator.)
