Sean Davis: 'Fulham must back Kit Symons'

Former Fulham midfielder Sean Davis has urged the club to keep manager Kit Symons in charge for next season.

The 44-year-old took over from the sacked Felix Magath in September before guiding the team to safety in the Championship.

However, the ex-Welsh international's future at Craven Cottage has recently been in doubt, with outgoing Brentford boss Mark Warburton touted as a possible replacement for Symons.

"There is a bit of uncertainty over whether Kit will be here or not," Davis told BBC Sport. "They need to be fully behind him and give him the resources that he needs.

"This club has done well over the years by sticking to a manager and being patient with him. The owner should give Kit the resources he feels he needs to get Fulham in the playoffs or be promoted and take it from there."

Davis began his professional career with Fulham in 1996 before joining Tottenham Hotspur eight years later.
