Steve Davis Signs For Saints ! Interesting !
When Saints cancelled the friendly with Rangers in the memorial cup I suspected it might be because we were about to sign one of their contract rebels and i was right.
In fairness it didnt take a genius to work out that Saints could be chasing Steve Davis, after all it was rumoured in just about every newspaperand now Saints have got their man with eh ex Aston Villa, Fulham and now Rangers midfielder joining Saints to join former rivals in the Auld Firm game Danny Fox and Jos Hooiveld.
Of course its another piece in the jigsaw, and hopefully Saints will now focus on other more important areas, but Davis joins an already crowded midfield department, in total he makes the eighth option in that area, ninth if Alexander Buttner arrives and thats not including the underage players who are hoping to make a breakthrough like Jamie Ward Prowse etc, its clear that in midfield especially and in certain other areas of the field Saints will need to have a clear out, there are currently 24 over 23 years old players in the first team squad including Davis and we still need another keeper and central defender at least.
