The keeper's kit was just as bad. Take it away, Sir Les Sealey:
Horrific.
Bonus points for anyone who can identify the outfield players pictured above.

This week's Spot the Baller goes way back in time, to the 20th century no less! Using your footy
detective skills, can you identify the Chelsea player who is hiding behind the grisly visage of

I remember approaching the 1996-97 season with a degree of optimism. Despite a poor finish to
the previous Division One campaign, Southend United had been in the running for promotion right up
to Easter and, with former Liverpool and Ireland legend Ronnie Whelan in charge, there was a
feeling that we could genuinely make a tilt at the Premiership.
Welcome to the fifty-first annual WCR Top 25 rankings. For years, we have been describing how
this list is compiled. In brief, the rankings are based on (a) the domestic results for each club's
most recent completed season (either 2010 or 2009-10) and (b) performances in the continental
championship tournaments through the use of bonus points.
