Which player(s) should grow a beard?

[Yorkshire Blue]

Watching the football last night, I couldn't help but noticing the comeback of the bearded footballer.

David James had probably the most impressive effort; Rooney's is a worryingly ginger tinge that makes him look even more like an orang-utan; and I didn't notice Matthew Upson's beard until the second half, making me suspect he had actually started the game clean-shaven and it had just grown quickly.

No doubt they are (belatedly) following my trend-setting example of earlier this season, although they should note that I am currently clean-shaven. My question is however, which Southend players should grow a beard?

Adam Barrett, giving him an 'Uncle Albert' appearance.

Flahavan. Dont 6 or the 7 dwarves have beards?

And P. Clarke...may help him become as reliable as our former bearded centre back P.Clark.

Adam Barrett

Charlie Mac always looks like he's a quick beard grower.

Tommy Black would look like Liam Gallagher with a beard.

 

[C C Csiders]

Zoltan to give him the mid-European madman look. He can say "don't go the castle"

 

[DTS]

I have always thought Francy Moussa would look superb with a handle bar moustach.

I believe Zoltan may have grown a pointy beard already. Alas, until he appears for the first team we won't know for sure. I had to leave him and Moussa (who is too young to grow one) off my poll for reasons of space.

Barrett is a definite for sure. He was also the first name that came to mind.

 

[Interpol Shrimper]

Nicky Bailey would look like Alfred from the popular 70s kids game Guess Who :p

 

[MK Shrimper]

I think the entire team should grow a beard - it'd make Football Focus :)

perhaps we should contact AB and see whether he'll do it for all at SZ! :p

I was thinking it would be one way to see if any of the players read (or have read to them, I don't want to make any presumptions about their level of literacy) Shrimperzone.

 

[C C Csiders]

The entire defence should agree to stop shaving until they keep a clean sheet. By my reckoning they should start tripping over their beards sometime next November (obviously with the excpetion of Darryl who'll be tripping over his against Bournemouth)

 

[BILLERICAY BLUE]

Perhaps he could put something in Barrett's Banter to show that he's seen this.......

 

[Scamps]

I would like to see flavs have 1...Make him look a bit meaner in goal.

well if AB appears in a months time supporting a full-on beard we'll know for certain that he sneaks on now and again! (or indeed has it read to him :p)

 

[Yer Blues]

kevin maher should grow a beard.

he should also stop passing sideways
