A QUARTET of players are doubtful for Southend United’s clash at Millwall on Saturday.

Strikers Noel Hunt and David Mooney are both rated 50/50 for the clash at the New Den, along with left-back Ben Coker, while winger Stephen McLaughlin is likely to miss out with an illness.

And Blues boss Phil Brown admits he will not be able to finalise his starting line-up until just before the game.

“We’ve got a number of injuries and we’re looking at maybe having to make three or four enforced changes to the team,” said Brown.

“We’ve had a couple of setbacks with Noel this week and he’s very much 50/50 for the game.

“It’s the same with David Mooney and Ben Coker so we’re going to have to make a number of late decisions.

“But I do expect Stephen McLaughlin to miss out if I’m honest.”
