The "Norway 6" would have been 7 but he refused to get in the photo (need publicity)
Was it him on the phone to Mick Buxton?
'Twas sir, local polis rang him when they changed all the games a day before we were due to start the tour.....
Where was it where he would only eat chocolate mousse?
Everyone ordered some nice scran then Dowells turn came....."I'll just have the chocolate mousse youngin'"
Thanks Ben - a great memory…..
No probs Col. I'll post the other when I get home Col.Thanks Ben - a great memory…..
Haway @The Fulwell sort him out man !!This one still not working mate.
Can someone under 35 help these silver surfers with techie stuff??
Just found out about this C, absolutely gutted. Davey was the definition of the ultimate supporter and by that I don't mean some kind of uber-fan going around boasting about how many grounds he visited or how many miles he travelled. He was completely oblivious to all that. Quite simply he loved and supported the Lads through thick and thin without reservation. I bumped into him on Holmeside the last time I was back home. We had not seen each other for 2-3 years but we picked up the craic immediately discussing the Lads, of course. Must have been there an hour just craicing on, almost forget that I had to get to the Post Office before it closed. Ended up having to leg it down Fawcett Street. Davey had that effect.Just seen this as I'm reading the thread from backwards but you are right David the match won't be the same .....he was one of the ones I used to always look for for a quick chat at half time......not because i was a close mate - I wasn't - but he was one of the 'originals' if that makes sense?
I'm getting quite emotional here....
Didn't know Davey and from the accounts on here he wouldn't want any fuss but seems to me that someone so dedicated to the lads should have some kind of memorial- perhaps we could chip in for a memorial brick or bricks if they still do them at the SoL?
I wouldn't be surprised if the club do something, they will know from their records that he was such a loyal fan and never missed a game. I know they acknowledge every person associated with SAFC who has passed away at the last home game of the year but I think in this case, someone like Davey deserves special acknowledgment.

You mention the Hong Kong 'steak and chips' incident but my favourite memory of Davey was when I was playing cricket for the London branch against the mags. Davey was down for the weekend and got drafted into the team. I was at the non-strikers end when he came out to bat and in those days he had very long hair kept in place with a headband. He looked like a mini heavy metal McEnroe. The mags were pissing themselves as he came out to bat but about an hour later after he had scudded them to all corners the comments had well and truly dried up. Can't remember how many he got but it was a lot but the thing is he ended up giving his wicket away because he felt sorry for them!! Sort of sums up the humanity of the lad. Great bloke. RIP
