Brett Angell; grabbed four on a cold evening in November 1990

It was the old Aldershot before the rising again, and the tape could be of better quality, but here's a rare chance to see the Shrimpers of that great David Webb side of 1990/1991 with Steve Tilson actually playing and Brett Angell finding the net four times on the hallowed turf of Roots Hall in, of all things, the Leyland Daf Cup Preliminary Round!

A competition that under Tilly as manager we were to take part in two losing finals in Cardiff against Blackpool and Wrexham.

It remains one of the three games Southend have hit ten goals.
