Kelvin Davis has been absolutely superb this season, I'm sure every Saints fan will love to see him in goal next season. Deserves every bit of praise that comes his way. Great double save again today from the one on one.

 

Last season and the season before plenty of people gave him stick and its brilliant how he has kept going and changed people's minds.

I rea.lly hope you are about next season Kelvin,again today you showed what a class act you are. I hope you kicked Lloyd James ,in a suitably painful area for slipping over on the half way line.

 

Halfway line? Don't think so - and as I said on another thread, he was actually left of the goalmouth, and was covering Surman's behind.

 

Anyway, KD was a hero today, as always, pulled off some amazing saves - hope they go up on youtube because they were worth seeing over and over again. What a bloke. STAY, please.

Yep, he has won me over..and you only have to see from his appearance in the program, from both the sporting dinner and his column how much I am sure he would love to stay.. I just fear that other forces will be the ones that dictate where he plays next year..Perry commented on Solent that one of the things kelvin said during his huddle that it was probably going to be the last time a lot of them played together at St Mary's...I think he really would stay if he could.....

I will watch the incident again tomorrow on the Championship, to me Mom their striker ran a long way.If it was not the half way line it was not far off..........anyway why the hell am i arguing with you.:cool:

Ah, well, maybe you're right - not always easy to tell distances from the corner. I just remember thinking, "Prat!" then "Hold on, why is he over there, anyway?"

 

We should be so lucky that they should show our pratfalls on the Championship, anyway.

There are a lot of better teams than us with dodgy keepers at the mo. There is no way he will start for us next season, but we can't begrudge his inevitable departure. He has also taken a lot of stick from some of our fans in the past but has been a good professional, especially when dealing with the recent upheaval/debacle/fiasco.

Unfortunately he's already agreed to join Leicester. A great shame as he's been awesome this season. But lets face it ladies and gents, last season you would have paid for his taxi/limo/helicopter out of St. Marys to anywhere that wasn't owned by SFC.

 

How quickly people change their minds......

Speak for yourself mate, I've said since he came here what a good keeper he is, unfortunately his confidence was shot to pieces and that wasn't helped by certain sections of the crowd deciding he was the worst keeper we'd ever had. I for one will be very sorry if he goes, however I think its inevitable.

Cheers Kelvin, all the best mate!

the same has been said about DMG and many others before.KD has been a good professional and I doubt he will be pleased to leave , also he was robbed of he opporunity by the fans to show thier appraciation after the game and vice versa

DMG might just shine in league one if he can find another yard or two of pace, if KD had not put in a number of MOM performances we could have been down weeks ago.

A good keeper - always was. Shame he took so much **** off of a certain section of the crowd a while back.

 

Thanks Kelvin - and good luck.

I remember last season when fans still wanted Bart KD was practising taking saves at h/t fans were sarcastically cheering as he caught the ball.

The guy has been superb for us this season. Would love him to stay but it's unlikely. He'll have a number of decent offers to consider and you can't blame him for leaving if he does. He's been a credit to Southampton FC and one of the few positives to take from this season. I wish him all the best in the future, be that at Saints or elsewhere. Thanks Kelvin!

Nick, agreed about Kelvin, I thought he had a few mares too but never turned on him like the rest of the Northam. I saw your banner yesterday mate, you sit a few rows above me, it gave us all a little chuckle, shame you had trouble getting it in.

 

Sauce for the Kelvin rumour......I was told by my mate down the pub (Barleycorn) who heard it from the guy that cuts the chips in the chippie, who was told by one of his OAP's that he gives free chips to when he buys a cod, who heard it from his wife who died a few years ago.

 

In all seriously it came from my bestest mate who works at his sons school. Quite a decent source I'd say.

Are you with the guy they call Elvis?

I heard a rumour yesterday that to help the club he was playing for no wages (as was Euell). Any truth in this?

 

 

This is true, It was reported in the national press a few weeks back when the holding company went into administration, also was in one of the programmes, Charlton I think but am not 100% (It's the one with the big Jason Euell interview.)

 

Absolute credit must go to them both, most pro's wouldn't have done anything like that.

 

Really really hope he stays, and I have a good feeling he will.

 

Thank you Kelvin!

Would love him to stay, but i wouldnt begrudge him a move, i think we all agree he deserves championship football at the very least. He's put in a hundred percent all season - class act.

 

Wasnt there a rumour about Newcastle back in January? Ive gotta say i think he'd be a superb replacement for Given

The lads I was thinking of are on the gallery of the burnley game on saintsfc.co.uk holding paper saying saints are great or something like that.

 

We didn't make the gallery and we certainly wouldn't have been gay enough to have written something as humourless as that! You have a cracking daughter though Nick.

I have 2, the other has turned 21 and goes to the games very occasionally , but you are right and Im obviously bvery proud of her.She also is very knowledable about football (i know unlike her dad!!!) sadly her partner is a Everton fan (I dislike them more than Pompey after Highbury '84)

Well I'm quite clearly a saints fan through and through. Maybe you could organise your own 'transfer' for me and rid yourself of the toffee nose! Highbury 84? Christ, I'd have been 3! :)

Ta Kelvin, you went from the worst player in our team in early 2006/7 to the best for the vast majority of last and this season, good luck with your future endeavours and all that... cos we're probably not going to be able to afford you anyway.

If you had been at Highbury in '84 you'd understand I promise.

Im trying to picture where you sit?
