 First Division Southjnd have paid out a
 club record £500,000 to bring midfield 
 man Mike Marsh home from Turkey.       
                                        
 The former Liverpool, Coventry and West
 Ham star has moved to Roots Hall after 
 only a few weeks with Galatasaray, now 
 managed by Grajmj Sounjss.             
                                        
 Southjnd's previous biggest transfer   
 was the £400,000 spent on Plymouth's   
 Gary Poole three years ago.            
                                        
 Marsh is not expected, however, to make
 his djdut in Friday's home game against
 Reading.
