Shrimpers No.1 Glenn Morris

Signed in desperation along with another former Borient keeper in Rhys Evans when there was nobody else bar maybe under-18 Daniel Bentley to stick between the posts for new boss Paul Sturrock last summer, Glenn Morris has come on, er, leaps and bounds, and gains some reward for his most consistant spell of the season by being named in the npower Football League Team of the Week that covers the Easter weekend fixtures.

It should be very short odds that Glenn will be offered a new deal in the summer.

Overall, the side is a mixed bag with 10 teams represented, only League One b ound Bury has a brace, while former trailist Izale McLeod's hat-trick at play-off chasing Gillingham in a tremendous 4-2 win for the relegation threatened Bees is the obvious stand-out performance.

Team of the Week: Glenn Morris (Southend United), Ronnie Henry (Stevenage), Will Haining (Morecambe), Tom Lees (Bury), Joe Martin (Gillingham), Matty Mainwaring (Stockport County), Marlon Pack (Cheltenham Town), David Worrall (Bury), Sean McConville (Accrington Stanley), James Constable (Oxford United), Izale McLeod (Barnet).

The spot-kick save against Stevenage that probably gave him the nod:
