Played against Dai when he was just starting at Ammanford in the Welsh League. He was a commanding keeper even then as a 20 year old. We were so lucky to get him at Wrexham. He commanded the box like all really good keepers and you could always hear him. Definitely one of the best we have had at Wrexham and we have had some good ones. Dai was a good guy and a very good keeper indeed.

Deeply saddened to hear this news today. The Davies family was close to mine during his time at Wrexham and he was a very kind, funny and generous man, and a true Welsh warrior.

Cydymdeiliadau i'r teulu i gyd. Cadwch yr atgofion melys.

RIP Dai,

He was friends with my Uncle(they were neighbours in penycae) and as a young boy(and obsessive Wrexham fan) in the early 80`s he turned up unannounced at my house with some Wrexham and Wales memorabilia which I still have, He used to ring now and again even occasionally after joining Swansea. Absolute Gent and Legend.

A True Great one of our best keepers ever.

Best £8,000 we ever spent?

RIP Dai. You should have punched Clive Thomas at Upton Park, not just grabbed his shoulder!

I was there that day too and it was very unfair. Many other lovely memories of Dai Davies at the Racecourse. Very sad to hear of his passing.

The Telegraph has posted an obituary for him

I think he had the best positional sense of any keeper I have ever seen play. RIP Dai!
