Tomorrows game and the Doc

Recommended Posts

Never thought I would do this but I have been told by what i consider to be someone reliable that Doherty has been dropped and won''t travel tomorrow

Nelson is expected to start and David Stephens is to be included on the bench

I guess this is going to please an awful lot of people

I am no fan of Doherty, kind of surprise he isn''t the squad as other option aren''t much/any better. Another example that Lambert is not afraid to make brave decisions, as lets not forget outside this board Doherty is still popular with the fans. I think it sends out the message that no player is safe in this squad and they are going to have to work for their place, no bad thing if you ask me.

I went to Colney on Thursday and the Doc wasn''t training with the squad although Russell was. Therefore Doc won''t be plaing and Russell will.

Altough Im pleased that Doc has finally been dropped its taken the shine off it a bit when its for Nelson. A Hartlepool fan I know said they were not bothered about him leaving, at the time I thought it was sour grapes....maybe not???

[quote user="Mister Chops"]I really hope that people won''t be pleased that Nelson is playing instead of Doherty.[/quote]

It makes sense to field Nelson against his former club and I''m certain Lambert will address the fact that a new centre-back is required to replace Doherty.The only reason I can think of why & how Doherty has remained a City player the last three seasons is because nobody else wants him. I''d have released him on a free.
