Career
Davidson was signed for Sheffield United by manager Dave Bassett in June 1993 from non-league Walton and Hersham.[1] He was never able to make the break into the first team and was eventually given a free transfer to Chester City in 1996. He made over 100 appearances for The Blues before spells with Barnet and Shrewsbury Town where he finished his career.[1] At Shrewsbury he scored once, his goal coming in the League Cup against Preston North End.[2]
