RECORD GOAL SCORER: Roger Davies 157 Goals
When Roger turned eighteen, he joined Bridgnorth Town which itself had just joined the amateur Midland Football Combination. Davies spent three seasons with Bridgnorth. In the summer of 1971, he signed with Worcester City of the Southern Football League. He performed well enough to come to the attention of Derby County’s manager who purchased Davies’ contract for £12,000 in September 1971. He spent the 1971-1972
season with the Derby County reserves in the Central League where he won the league championship. Derby then loaned Davies to Preston North End at the start of the 1972-1973 season. He gained his First Division debut with Preston on August 26, 1972. After two appearances for Preston, he returned to Derby where he began
to see first team time. In 1973, he became a part of Derby County lore during a third round FA Cup replay at Tottenham Hotspur. At the eighty minute mark, Tottenham held a 3-1 lead, all but assured of advancement to the next round when
Davies scored twice in quick succession to tie the game. He rounded out a hat trick in extra time as Derby eliminated Tottenham
5-3. In 1975, Davies and his team mates, including Alan Hinton who would play a large part in his future career, took the Football league championship. (Information supplied
