Southend United FC was formed in 1906 by alcohol and tobacco. At least, these were the occupations of the founders. Three years later the club produced this handbook. In a fresh introduction, Clice Leatherdale reveals how 1909-10 was a traumatic season. Goalkeeper Charlie Cotton died in January, leaving the team shell-shocked. They plunged towards the bottom of the Southern League, avoiding relegation by a whisker.
