Spent many a night in the Nelson with Percy Hovell, him and Willie playing cards and drinking --- me sitting there sipping lemonade.

When Gary Moore got sent off - I reckon it was against Aldershot. we had played Grimsby on the Monday and got beat 0-1 and Graham Birks got sent off. Then on the Saturday we played Aldershot and won 4-3 after Gary moore and their defender each got sent off for fighting.
Gary Moore was a very useful centre forward at the level he played (div 4 in those days) and scored a lot of goals. he scored on his debut and also scored a fantastic goal at Brenford in 1973, flicking the ball over a defenders head and volleying home. he missed afe mind you!

Heaps better than Coulson

FWIW, my grandfather wouldn't rate Gary Moore as even the best Moore to have played for us. His vote would be for Billy Moore.

Your grandad clearly goes back a bit then.Anything else he's got to say?:unsure:

The other Southend player who stood out for him was Stan, but I'm lucky enough to have my own stories for Stan:)
