Did anyone read the interview with Kevin Davies? I thought it was a great insight into things...

I won't be allowed to publish the whole thing here but here are some snippits...

"arriving for my trial (with Bolton) which was a bit of a fall from grace"

" I have had interest from other clubs, particularly in January last year. We seriously considered as a family both Houston Dynamo and Sunderland.

It's hard to be the captain of the team and not be able to lead your boys out on to the pitch. My pride was hurt."

"You're not fit to wear the shirt" and "we pay your wages" are common expressions we have all heard during a football match. I think as a team we expect to be booed off if we are under performing as a team. It is when it becomes directed at an individual that the real damage is done..."

"picked up some injuries too: broken foot, fractured cheek bone, three broken fingers, and a dislocated finger.

(but)

I think I can count on one hand how many times a Physio has entered the pitch to treat me and think I have only left the field of play once through injury."

"The club has always come first with me and we are under no illusions it is going to take an almighty effort from everyone to get us back into The Premier League."

The only time the physio has ever come on to treat Kevin Davies was when he broke his cheek bone. He got up and played on until he got sent off. I remember when he broke his foot. He came to the side of the pitch, had an injection in his foot and went back on and played on. Same when he broke his finger.

It's quite amazing really. I doubt their is another player in the league who can say the same.

But still had the same commitment then as now "I literally went there and worked my socks off trying to impress him."

He's a top pro, it's a shame he isn't a few years younger or I reckon he would have had a great partnership with craig davies.

I remember seeing him dislocate his finger in a tussle in the box. He stepped off the field, got it popped back in, carried on. No wussing about for Super Kev.

That was against West Ham I think. He'd been out injured for a few weeks and we really missed his presence and impact up front. He came back into the side, scored and got us a very important win over the Spammers.

Super Kev is a true professional and more - he genuinely values the club as more than just an employer, and wants to do well for us. Good lad. I still think he is just an impact player for us now, but if we go up at the end of the season, I'd like him to come with us - if only to be able to retire as a Premiership player.

there has been a lot of SKD bashing on this site and others which i find strange after all he has contributed to BWFC over the years.
