Kevin Davies

[Grappler]

I thought Davies was, thuggery aside, completely ineffective. He is long past his use-by date. I detect Bladey Bladeness.

Agree with that, only scored 3 since 2013, Higdon has scored 4 for us and has hardly featured in any games.

Two most memorable moments from Davies:

The stupid booting of the drop ball into BL.

First half he slid in for a blatant foul in front of JSS and the ball went in to touch. We got the throw (as if he'd won the ball) but he complained that it should have been his throw (that would be a foul and a booking for you then, wouldn't it Kev?).

Shocking performance of fouling and falling over.

Me and the guy behind me in the kop laughed at that for about 10 minutes.

Why on earth would you do that when you're losing? Haha

Davies is just a typical target man, puts it about unsettling defenders and opposition keepers. He's always been that type of player, but as he's got older has become less effective.

You can slag him off if you like, but bear in mind, it won't be long now before he's hung his boots up and has a season ticket back on the Kop and then you'll all be clambering to sit next to him!

Sit next too him if you don't mind been elbowed!

League One Kitson shits all over League One Davies.

And well done our ball boy for 'taking his time' returning it

I can remember Billy Whitehurst playing the hard man for us and the fans loved him for it. How many current fans would like Higdon to put a shift in for us like Davies did for PNE?

Kevin wasn't getting any joy playing against Terry and Jay, so he tried to unsettle them by adopting plan B and tried to intimidate them. Our boys were not daft enough to fall for it,credit to them.

Footnote: Dave Basset got rid of Davies from BDTBL as a teenager for not being strong or physical enough

Bassett's youth policy was awful (Whitehouse and Ward were signed by Billy McEwan) and I didnt think much of Keith Mincher who was our youth team coach then

Keith used to work with me when we had a steel Industry. He is/was a great bloke and knew his coaching stuff so much so that Leeds poached him from us when they were a big club.His coaching methods are still used by me on our local lad's team

Keith Mincher was at L**ds before he came to us and L**ds didnt poach him from us. He became Carlisle's manager in June 1999 but resigned a week later due to problems with Michael Knighton
