Simon Davies braced for bit-part role at Fulham

SIMON Davies will hang up his boots at the end of his new Fulham contract in 2013.

But the winger insists he can go out on a high by scoring again in another Europa League final for the Whites.

Davies was the only man on the mark during that famous May night in Hamburg when Fulham lost 2-1 to Athletico Madrid – but reckons lightning can strike twice at Craven Cottage.

However, it won't surprise the 30-year-old if he is reduced to a bit part over the next two campaigns – although the ex-Peterborough player has no plans to return to the lower leagues just to keep going.

He said: "I'm pretty realistic about the next two seasons – particularly in the position I play. I reckon I'll get used more sparingly.

"I've been lucky to play in the Premier League for most of my career – and I don't think I'm one to go down the leagues. I imagine it would be frustrating."

Good attitude from him, it will be fantastic for us to be able to call upon him in more of a reserve role over the next few years as the youngsters come in.

...you just cannot help liking the guy. I think he genuinly likes it here at Fulham. There is no doubting that he has always put in 100% and had been a fantastic servant, another of those players who you notice when he is not there.

Such a shame that we have never found a suitable song for him, I wish the Fulham choir would concentrate on positive songs about Fulham and their players, rather than anti-c#el$e@ songs.

Thanks for everything Simon...

And remember, he stopped his international career in order to prolong his Fulham one.

Maybe we can come up with a song based on his nickname of "Digger"??  What part of Wales is he from?

I have no ideas yet thought.

I will admit that I was skeptical of him after the poor season he had just after being player of the year.. I thought he was finished but truth is... he was far from it... solid player and professional through and through...

Just hope AJ has the same grit and can make a believer out of me again...

My God, are you telling me that the supporters don't already have a song for Super Taffy?  :029: Jesus, he's on his FOURTH manager with us now.
