Betsy: 'I wanted to remain at Wycombe as long as I can'
Less than a couple of weeks after his four-month loan spell came to an end Kevin Betsy has put pen to paper with Wycombe until May 2009 for starters.
The 31-year-old never did the business for the Shrimpers on a consistant basis while remaining a fans favourite at Adams Park.
He's already made 22 further appearances as a Chairboy this season, scoring one goal.
Kevin signed for Southend from Bristol City in July 2008 and played 50 games, scoring three goals in his 18 months at Roots Hall.
Betsy told www.wwfc.com: "I'm delighted to be back in familiar surroundings at the club where I have been at my happiest. I made no secret when I signed on loan that I wanted to remain at the club as long as I can. That was my intention and it's fulfilled until at least the end of the season."
Wycombe boss Gary Waddock added: "I'm pleased he is back and that we've been able to sign him on a permanent basis."
S24 wishes Kevin the best of luck for the future.
When the Chairboys come to Southend on Saturday, January 23rd, Captain Adam and the rest of his back four, whoever they may be, might be confused at the sight of Betsy, Revell and Harrold all lining up against them!
At the moment the Football League is holding up the Revell transfer but hopefully all should go through, while Prince Harry scored against the Shrimpers in the 1-1 draw between the clubs back in August.
Should be a fun afternoon!
