Former Southend United player Chris Powell has been appointed as the new manager of the League One side on a two-and-a-half-year contract.

He replaces Phil Brown, who was put on gardening leave on Wednesday after seven league defeats in eight games.

Ex-Charlton defender and boss Powell, 48, made 290 appearances for the Shrimpers between 1990 and 1996.

Southend are 20th and only one point above the drop zone after their game at Rochdale on Saturday was postponed.
