Club career

Davy previously played for Glentoran and Ards. He won many trophies while in East Belfast, including an Irish League title and Irish Cup medal. While with Ards, he won the Irish First Division title in 2001.

In 2005 he dropped down a division to join Crusaders, for whom he hit 30 goals in his first season to ensure immediate promotion. He scored in the 2008 CIS Cup Final, but two late Linfield goals ensured the Crues' were defeated 3-2. It was Rainey's first cup final goal,[1] and he was named in the 2008 Irish League Select XI as a result.[2]

He was in the side that won the 2009 Irish Cup.[3]
