Before, during & after Southend
Barbados international winger Louie Soares arrived from Aldershot Town in the summer of 2010, part of Paul Sturrock's large rebuild following relegation. His best moment in a Southend shirt came in the Football League Trophy victory over Barnet on 5 October: he went past several defenders and finished a powerful solo effort to round off a 3–1 win. He left in summer 2011 and joined Hayes & Yeading United.
