Davies Banned
Andrew Davies has been banned until April 1st after admitting striking an opponent in the top of the table cash with Middlesbrough. Boro's Marty Howe was left with concussion after the incident in the last minute of the game at Brinkburn but was able to return to work the following week.

Davies was already serving an 8 week ban imposed by the club's own disciplinary committee for the offence.

He told the panel that he deeply regretted charging into a bunch of players who had all got involved in a rucus after Jonny Boatman knocked-on in his own 22. The panel was shown the club's own video which showed Davies barging through Howe and West's Peter Hodgson sending both flying to the ground.
