Pat Davies (footballer)
Pat Davies is an English former footballer who played for England against Scotland on 18 November 1972, scoring two goals to complete England's 3–2 victory.[1]
She scored a hat-trick for Southampton Women's F.C. in their 4–1 victory over Stewarton Thistle in the final of the first Women's FA Cup in 1971.[2][3]
Davies is from Netley and despite being only 5 ft 0 in (1.52 m) tall, she became a prolific striker for Southampton WFC and England. She retired from playing in 1978 after becoming disillusioned with the lack of development in English women's football.[4]
