I guess that writes him off then, regardless of ability.
Showing my age, but that pair were probably two of the most cultured players I have seen in a Southend shirt.oh no not at all.
gaaaaarrrrgghhhhh - he was my number one choice for LB.
ps he wasnt the first Shrimper to be capped whilst at Southend, That was someone else.
Edited as I won't pick him anyway - Lot Jones was the first to be capped, who had an impressive career pre WW1 at Man City.

I need a keeper. I was banking on no one thinking of Harry Threadgold. Bugger.
There aren't many left, and I really don't want to be hamstrung with Eric Steele.... lol. So I'll go for the current custodian MARK OXLEY

Yeah he was on my list as well - scores some absolute crackersPenultimate pick. Right back or right midfield is what is needed to complete the team.
With a central midfield of Bailey and Whelan, I probably have not enough energy in Ron's legs to let Bailey do all the work. Otto is an out and out winger. Do I pick a more defensive midfielder and an overlapping full back, or another winger style player and a defensive full back?
Ah, the agony of choice.
I have 5 or 6 right backs I'd be happy to accommodate in my team, but fewer right sided midfielders that would fit with my style. I'm also keen to keep to players that I've watched and of the relatively modern era; pre war players may have been good in their day but the game has moved on massively, both in terms of skill, equipment and fitness. I can't in all honesty select someone I've never seen.
Sod it I'll go for the winger.
Hugely controversial selection I suspect. This is a player who played in our side at our highest level. When he came he was a revelation; his ability to whip crosses in early often caught keepers out. He got a few goals as well, including one of the best I've ever seen, an absolute screamer from distance against Norwich at the Hall.
Another Celtic recruit, he should have done far better than he did for us. We signed him for £80k and his form was fantastic, impressing Barry Fry at Birmingham enough to offer £750k for him. In hindsight, we should have taken it. Over time, drink and gambling took its toll on him. He dropped into the Irish league after 2 seasons here and a relegation which looked a million miles away when he joined.
But that first season was pretty awesome. Paul Byrne, join the party!
I'd have thought Charlie Mulgrew would be a better pick at LB which is where he played for us?L
I need a left back, and as YB pointed out, there are a few decent ones still about. Stevie Hammell was a consideration, but I never rated him as highly as others did, and he only played 55 times for the Blues before going back to Motherwell. I can't pick Che Wilson with a clear conscience, so I'm going for our current left back:
First Choice: Ben Coker
