Club stalwart Nathan Davies
will hopefully receive some well deserved applause in his testimonial match for
County that will be held at Spytty Park on Wednesday, July 28. Kick Off
7pm. Davies was released after more than a decade with the club earlier this
summer and County fans will get the chance to thank him for his loyal service
when the Exiles take on a Nathan Davies XI arranged by County general manager
Tim Harris.
“I’m really looking forward to it because it’s a chance to say goodbye to the
fans who have been brilliant to me,” said the man known as Mr Newport County.
Davies is currently recovering
from a second operation on the ankle injury which plagued his final season at
the club and is concentrating on getting fit for the match and finding a new
club. “The ankle is taking longer to heal that I thought so that has slowed
things down a bit but I definitely won’t miss my testimonial,” added Davies,
whose proposed move to Forest Green Rovers has fallen through.
“I was hoping to go to Forest Green but their budget was too small in the end so
I’m still on the look out for a new club,” he said. “Hopefully I can get fit and
sort something out as soon as possible.”

last season, I was amazed when I was made aware of his availability which we
acted upon immediately. "Darryl is our 2nd international signing of the week,
having represented England at two age groups whilst part of Ipswich's academy
system and made his first team debut at just 16. "He was viewed by many at
Kidderminster as "their most creative player" and he makes a very welcome
addition to our squad."

Welshman was a free agent after being released by League Two side Shrewsbury
