A local lad, signed as an apprentice to Don Revie's side in 1964,
Nigel Davey made just 23 appearances for Leeds in 10 years with the
club. His big chance to get into the side came in 1972, when Terry
Cooper broke his leg at Stoke. Unfortunately, Davey did exactly the
same thing on the same day when playing for the reserves. When he
recovered, he moved on to Rotherham, but didn't make it into the
first team there.
Michael Foote says: No but I played against his brother Philip
Davey. Philip played for Whitkirk Wanderers nr Leeds and in 1968 we
played them in the Minor Cup we lost 3-2 aet and a cup shock was thus
avoided.
