Jarvis in Shrimpers frame

27 September 2010 16:01
Southend new signing Nathaniel Jarvis is pushing for a start as they travel to Gillingham. Jarvis signed on loan from Cardiff last week and will be hoping to make his full debut after coming on as a late substitute in the win over Hereford at the weekend. However, strikers Barry Corr and Blair Sturrock both scored at the weekend and are likely to keep their places. Captain, Craig Easton is out for at least another fortnight while Mark Phillips and Sofiene Zaaboub have returned to training this week but Tuesday's game is likely to come too soon for the pair. Matt Patterson and Scott Spencer will not be considered for the trip to the Priestfield Stadium as manager Paul Sturrock is looking to send them out on loan.
