MY tribute to Scotty Forbes -
By Dave Baker Aged 22 and 9 Months
O Scotty Forbes - my favourite Blue, how will we get on without you ,
No more skill and no more flair , No more of Scotty's gypo hair ,
You made me laugh , you made me cry , at times I said oh Scotty Why ? ,
Our superstar , Our own Ruud Gulitt , No more Forbes and no more Mullett ,
i cant believe they let you go , who's Rob Newman and what does he know ,
You weren't perfect , infact far from it , sometimes your play made me wheeze and vomit ,
But even so you did your best ,
so proud to have the blue shirt on your chest,
You danced round opponents with plenty of grace,
You ran all day till your Blue in the face ,
Always ready to cross the ball , Its a shame the crosses never found Bramble or Rawle ,
Why couldn;t they have given you one more year,As i see you departing I will shed a tear,
Some critics they said Forbes no good , But at least he always had Southend in his blood.
I thank you Scotty ....... Dave the Shrimper
