[The Big Dady]

So here we are the first game of Chris Powell's return and time in charge at the Mighty Shrimpers.

It is now time for ALL of us to get behind him and the team.

Chris Powell's 1st Southend United Team

Oxley, Demetriou, White, Turner, Coker (C), McLaughlin, Yearwood, Timlin, Kightly, Cox, Fortune

Subs: Bishop, Ferdinand, McGlashan, Klass, Robinson, Wabo

 

[SHRIMPERPETER]

Only 6subs?!!!!

 

[WightShrimper]

Like the look of that, and nice to see Ben with the armband.

 

[The Big Dady]

Only 6subs?!!!!

I think Chris was thinking of naming himself as a sub but changed his mind at the last minute

 

[Rob1920]

Only 6 subs? (unless I’ve lost the ability to count)

Be interesting to see how Yearwood does, from what I've seen of him he's much more comfortable going forward than defending but he never really had the opportunity to do that in the middle under Brown.

 

[Harry Bullocks]

Guessing the injury list, combined with the "I don't see you as part of my plans" list..... is lengthy....:whistling:

 

[South Bank Hank]

Surprised no one has mentioned the six subs.

 

[NZamba Legend]

Surely there is enough experience and ability in that squad to get a result. These players have got to pull their fingers out

 

[The Big Dady]

Scunthorpe's side

 

[Harry Bullocks]

7 subs for them, must've included the coach driver

 

[The Big Dady]

Harry Kyprianou is also on the bench apparently (Error on the original team-sheet).

 

[Maidstone Shrimper]

Guessing the injury list, combined with the "I don't see you as part of my plans" list..... is lengthy....:whistling:

I wonder which list Kyps is on. Injured? Oh. Neither it seems!

 

[South Bank Hank]

Scunthorpe's side

I hope someone will be marking Cameron.

 

[tottenham541]

Watch out for Cameron mcgeehan, he has a lot of ability if we give him space:unsure:

 

[Crowstone Crevette]

I hope someone will be marking Cameron.

i hope more than one will be marking both of them. thats why we concede so many goals at set pieces:sad:

Nothing gets past you CC. If only our defence was as ‘difficult’ to bamboozle.

 

[SUFCStu]

Ferdinand benched :thumbsup:

God this team needs signings.

 

[SeaSideDoughnut]

I wonder what Nile's up to today...
