Trialists

[DTS]

Prosser, two youngsters and an unknown quantity. Doesn't really feel 'sorted', more like quite a risky gamble. I'd still have kept Phillips in as our 4th choice.

I think towards the end of the season it was clear he wasn't the player he once was. Time to move I felt.

Ibenfeldt, Bolger, Prosser & Thompson central defence sorted....the last one out on loan???

who is Bolger, have I missed something?

 

[kentblues]

who is Bolger, have I missed something?

Possible loanee from Bolton
we had him last year for one game then he got injured
done well elsewhere on loan. We are in for him again

 

[Darren_webb]

He is a defender who we had on loan last season from Bolton but lasted bout 25 mins and got injured. Might be coming back on loan

 

[cerbera45]

let's hope we leave that bad luck behind us this season

 

[Chalky]

I would like to see that Right back Luke Oneil back on loan,I think he came in from Burnley, he again only lasted 45 mins but he looked very sharp and played that worldie ball to straker

No chance -- he's just signed a 2 year contract extension with Premiership Burnley !!!

 

[Murkey_Mouse]

Look like he could get games in Premiership!

Would Ibenfeldt be Southend's first ever Danish player?

 

[WESTY_SUFC]

Would Ibenfeldt be Southend's first ever Danish player?

Think John Nielson may of been Danish?

no think we have had a few, can't remember names but didn't we have neilson years back, well I think that was his name, midfielder I think.

 

[tottenham541]

Great minds and all that:winking::thumbsup:

John Nielsen (what a shot he had by the way!!) and Peter Durson who was on loan sometime in the 90s I'm sure?

Didn't Neilsen get goal of the season one year? Against Bolton when we beat them 5-2 (and they were top of the league) IIRC

 

[Yorkshire Blue]

Yep. Burst the net from about 40 yards.

Tony Hendrickson was also Danish. He came on at Fulham after Roycie was sent off and may have even saved a penalty.

 

[Rattus Norvegicus]

For some reason I always thought John Cornwall should have been Danish.

Certainly Ricketts ate quite a few Danish pastries ................ :omg:

Tony Henriksen was by far the greatest

 

[Beefy]

Ha! It gets further out every time someone talks about it. Like Paul Byrne's blockbuster from inside his own half vs Norwich!

Neilsen's goal was a great hit - one of the best I've seen at Roots Hall certainly, but it was about a yard outside the box.

Yep, a yard outside his own box.....

I remember it being around 22 yards, no more than that.
