SZ's SUFC Hall of Fame - Steve Tilson
The SZ SUFC Hall of Fame has high standards. It's exclusivity can be judged by the high calibre of those individuals who fell just short: the likes of Paul Sansome, David Crown, Ricky Otto and Ian Benjamin were great but not quite great enough. Indeed even Paul Clark and Ron Pountney only made...- Yorkshire Blue

With Freddy there's only one place to start: has there ever been a better debut? I very much doubt it, and I include fiction in that. Scoring after just 7.7 seconds of your professional debut against the top of the table team before going onto complete your hattrick is the type of story that...- Yorkshire Blue

SZ's SUFC Hall of Fame - Nominations round 8
...The SZ Hall of Fame? Last time we did a round of nominations was August/Sept, and I think Dave Smith made it in. And I'm pretty sure Mark Gower now qualifies to be nominated. Also we seem to have lost the Hall of Fame page from the front of the website? Unless I'm being blind.- Jedi Shrimper

SZ's Southend United Hall of Fame - Dave Smith
This poll is really a week or so too early. The date of this poll should be 01 May, because that is the date for which Dave Smith will forever be associated with the club, for it was on 01 May 1981 that his side claimed the club's first major trophy* with a 1-1 draw against Rochdale.

SZ's Southend United Hall of Fame - Alan Moody
Next up for nomination is Alan Moody.

That is unlikely to keep Alan Moody out. In fact it...- Yorkshire Blue
