Can't believe I'm doing this, but here goes...
Davey is a very well accepted shorthand for David and used extensively in Glasgow, as I found when I lived there for a shirt while. As both men are Gladwegians, it's not surprising in the least to hear Brazil call him Davey, no matter how annoying it may seem.
As for the rag wankfest, think of it this way... For 25 years they've had truculence and contempt from a man who wouldn't piss on them if they were on fire in terms of rag manager coverage. By being nice to Davey, they no doubt expect a period of McGlasnost from the rags and in turn all that brings. Call it relationship building if you like.
