Simon Davies has a new club

[Lighthouse]

  Pembrokeshire League Football side Solva AFC have signed former Fulham/Everton//Spurs 34-year old winger Simon Davies

[RaySmith]

All the best to him.

He must still have a lot of ability and class -you don't lose it overnight.

Will never forget Simon's endevours for the club.

One of my very favourite players of recent years.  A wonderful pro.

Good luck to him.  I hope he brings them as much joy as he did us!

If I found a new club, I would use it to beat a certain Manager over the head with it.

SD.....My favourite player since we've been in the Prem........oops, not in the prem anymore !

Hope he reads this board and realises the warmth of feeling that we all have towards him.

One of my very favourite players of recent years.  A wonderful pro.

I second that emotion.

A very good player with a superb attitude towards our club. Some like steed and dembele were more gifted but when you blend all what made simon davies who he was, you get the ultimate player.

Some players used us as a stepping stone, others thought they were too big or just didnt fit in. But simon davies got it, he understood what fulham represented and thats the best gift of all. Only a handful of players in recent years have had that connection.... simon morgan, volz, symons, mcbride, murphy, brede(he once did). Id add simon to that list and thats a massive compliment.

The only player to ever score in a final for the whites and I was there! Plus the hamburg goal, technically one.of the best ive seen fulham score.

He is one of a special elite group of 8 with hughes, brede, konch, baird, murphy, dempsey and nevland who were all part of 3 incredible years. The great escape, our highest ever finish and the europa league final. How fitting that all of them played that night, they are heroes.

God bless ya simon, the utmost respect and the fondest memories. I wish we had more players like you.

Solva Afc you are very lucky!

Good luck mate

Thirded.

Top man.

His goal at Hamburg in the final will probably be the highlight. We didn't get the result, but just for a while we could believe...

[Shredhead]

Fourthed.
He's from Solva so it's also great that he's turning out for his local club.

[hovewhite]

Now what a video that would make 3 years of joy,is what I would call it!!

[HatterDon]

He may lose his pace and quick first step, but that class will be with him all the days of his life.

[FFCAli]

I like him even more now I've read that he's paying £3 a game like all his teammates! 065.gif

...so rare to be graced with a player of intelligence and integrity. 'Digger' was my second favourite player after Dempsey. The consummate professional and a credit to the sport. His goal at Hamburg was great, but his goal against Hamburg at Craven Cottage ranks among the top five goals I have seen, cool and skillful, and the word/s that keeps being mentioned "class"/"Classy" describe him well.

To go and play for the small team from the town you grew up in - and pay your dues to do so says it all. Good luck Simon, I just wish we had had a song for you so you would have known how much we appreciated what you did...

[Stoneleigh Loyalist]

He was so lucky to be born in such a lovely place and will now be playing there.

[The Rock]

Because it's his local club I get it.

But after Fulham he didn't suddenly become terrible. He could have played in the Championship or League One I'm sure for a year or two. It seems that once you hit that mid-30's something, even if you'd be the best player on the pitch, can't even make a conference side. Why is that? Shunned from old age?
