Darryl Flahavan, Rio Alderton, Blair Sturrock, and Efe Sodje all spotted training with Southend, in readiness for tonight's friendly at Dartford.
 
Haha, that's the worst one yet. And that is saying something.

Can't be bothered to check - but did you actually managed to get that published Naps?

If so good work. Pleased to see you don't think things have got as dire as to include Drewe amongst the triallists.

Curse you! Yes, it was published. Drewe's already got himself sorted. ;o)
 
This is the part of the story about Rio:

"Despite being released by Millwall as far back as 2003, tough-tackling Julius Caesar lookalike Rio Alderton, 33, will tonight line up for Southend United in a prestigious trial game against lofty MLS opponents Dartford Medway Magic. Rio has been told by current Shrimpers boss Paul Sturrock, 75, that a contract is waiting for him, just as long as he can convince the portly Scotsman that he has lost none of the magic that persuaded former Southend boss Rob Newman, 31, to hand the ex-Millwall battler a temporary deal seven years ago. Speaking about a possible emotional return to his 'Roots' ex-Millwall trainee Alderton told footballrumours. com that 'This is fantastic, I have been pestering the club for years to give me one last chance and it seems they have finally seen sense and relented. I'm going to give it all I've got tonight- I owe Paul and Tommy everything."

I for one cannot wait to see Rio pull on the famous shirt once more.
