well, its not Simon Cox who some linked to us
..................................
League One side Southend United have signed former Reading striker Simon Cox on a two-year contract.

Cox, 29, was released this summer after scoring nine goals in 60 games in his second spell at the Royals.

The ex-Nottingham Forest, West Brom and Swindon man, capped 30 times by the Republic of Ireland, has found the net 78 times in 296 career league matches.

Shrimpers boss Phil Brown said he hoped Cox would make up the goals lost from Jack Payne's move to Huddersfield.

Good signing for Southend, wouldn't have minded him partnering Sordell up top. Mowbray will have an ace up his sleeve I'm sure of it!

Centre half wise, there's a young guy from Fulham whose name escapes me but was linked a month or 2 ago. Wouldn't be surprised if it's him...

I was disappointed that we hadn't signed Cox until I saw his scoring record.
