Someone's got to go on the posh sites and big up Lloyd.

I still can't belive King picked him over Freddy Eastwood. I mean really, what a fucking imbecile.

King didn't pick him over Freddy Eastwood. Opera came here in June 2004. Eastwood didn't come on trial until September 2004 and King wanted to sign him but Southend managed to take him on loan first.
It certainly was not a choice between Opera and Eastwood, so you shouldn't believe it either Dave because it's not even true.

Not true Ben. I was there when Kingy went scouting for a striker. Him and the southend manager were picking, and in the end it was a choice between Eastwood and Opara. Kingy had first pick but went for Lloyd, leaving the disappointed Southend gaffer with Eastwood.

And I repeat Kingy shouldn't have picked first, the spastic left at the end always scores a screamer and gets mobbed by the team.
Also Gazza tipped Kingy off about Freddie too in 1991, but Andy knew best.

That's not even true either Dave/Spuddy, we didn't turn Eastwood down, he merely joined another club first. At the time we were pre-occupied with trying to complete a deal for Darius Henderson.

Ben your Andy King blinkered spectacles are letting you down again. Admit it Andy King did give the sign off for the holocaust!! He is an evil man who should be punished by an Austrian court of law.
