James Walker to Southend for £200,000
News from the
Southend site that James Walker will sign for the Shrimpers on Monday for £200,000, not bad for someone that has never kicked a ball for the first team. The 20-year old was actually released by Curbishley in May 2006 but was re-signed by Dowie at the start of last season. He has actually played 48 games scoring 7 goals whilst on loan at Hartlepool, Bristol Rovers, Leyton Orient, Notts County and recently Yeovil.
