Biography

Simon Dawkins

Player #855 for Aston Villa, Simon Jonathan Dawkins known as Simon Dawkins played as a forward for the club in Villaโ€™s 2012-13 Premier League campaign making 4 appearances.

Dawkins was born in Edgware on 1 December 1987.

Paul Lambert had signed Dawkins on a four month loan deal from Tottenham Hotspur in January 2013 and like so many signings under Lambertโ€™s bewildering regime, Dawkins was out of his depth with Villa, so much so that even this most myopic of managers couldnโ€™t keep playing him.

Lambert handed Dawkins his debut as a 63โ€™ substitute for Andreas Weimann in Villaโ€™s 2-1 Premier League win over West Ham United on Sunday, 10 February 2013. Lambert would bring Dawkins on in the following two matches as well, making his entrance in the 82โ€™ for Charles Nโ€™Zogbia and the 84โ€™ for Weimann once again in the losses to Arsenal and Manchester City.

Dawkins disappeared from view until making a 59โ€™ substitute appearance for Yacouba Sylla in the last game of the 2012-13 season on Sunday, 19 May 2013.

Dawkins returned to Tottenham Hotspur in June 2013.

Dawkins had played under Paul Lambert.
