Curtis would have been no worse than Collins or Cuellar tonight

I've seen him play far, far worse than that.

I don't think Davies will play for us again.

I don't think Davies is the answer at all, I expect him to be sold next month.

Would like to see Clark get a run at centre half now.

I take it Curtis has turned into a world beater on account of having a few decent games in the first division? He talks a cracking game but rarely looked any more than adequate.

Leicester have conceded five goals in their last two games so not sure that's even true PW.

The reviews from the Walkers have been far from flattering.

A team in our position need centre halves who are prepared to slog it out, not play pretty football. As it happens, Curtis Davies is not competent in either of those, in my view.

I’m not sure why it’s been bumped but it’s interesting reading and the first signs of what a monumental cock up we had with the combination of Learner and MON. It was like giving a child the keys to a sweet shop. If only Learner invested in a real footballing brain and had a strong business executive, the MON era may have worked.

Also between 8 and 12 million depending which was true for Curtis Davies and this was 12 years ago. That’s not far off the price we have paid for Targett. That’s a good gauge on the money we was throwing around back then on very average players.

I’m betting the bump is due to the Claret and Blue podcast interview with him. Quite insightful I suppose and honest.
He’s neither gone up nor down in my estimations because of it but a good listen.

A ten year bump. Blimey, that's some pregnancy.

Mine started when my wife got pregnant the first time round. So mine must be a seventeen year bump.

I think its because of the Davis K and Davis S threads that are bouncing around the latest ones.
I'm off to create a Davis/Davies thread off topic

Create a Gardner/Gardener one too whilst you're at it.
