65Vintage 5 Posted April 2, 2010 He''s saved us loads of goals and scored - yes bad mistake - but lots of other players have made them too - just coz its Doc means that he must immediately be dropped and transferred! ppl make me laugh! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest Posted April 2, 2010 [quote user="Flashman"]Remember that you are not allowed to criticise Gary Doherty. He has been excellent in many games this season against some moderate opposition. However, he is unreliable when under pressure as demonstrated regularly - for example tonight and for the Swindon equaliser. I have been saying this all season and if we want to move forward next season then we need to move on without him. Although Michael Nelson''s distribution is not good, it is difficult to identify when he has been clearly responsible for conceding a goal, unlike Doc. I know that this will elicit the usual abusive responses from the usual few (very few) but I know that I won the argument against these long ago as they never have anything constructive to say. I am desperate to see City move forward next season and do not wish to settle for mediocrity, unlike some who continue to hide their heads in the sand! We need two new centre backs - Zak Whitbread will be one, possibly Askou the other although I note that it has been reported that Lambert is interested in a Walsall player which is a very positive sign.[/quote]Hmm, on the one hand you say "you''re not allowed to criticise Gary Doherty", yet on the other you say it is only "few (very few)" people who think you are a bit of a nob for your constant slating of a single player - this doesn''t seem to add up. Surely if you were clearly in the right, there would not be any people who disagree with you. The fact you think Nelson, and a Walsall player, neither of whom I expect have played above League One level, are better choices than Doherty suggests that you are in fact very willing to accept mediocrity purely because you have a blind dislike of a single player.By all means, we should let Doherty leave if we have more than adequate replacement. Whitbread (who looks decent enough) and a player from Walsall are not those IMHO. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Meanwhile, the nondisillusioned wonder why he''s griping about something that doesn''t exist any longer. Rudol, your comments resound with your personal doubt. Do you think you are funny, or are you really insecure about yourself? If it''s the former, trust me on this: you are not. The way you write on and on and on and on about Gary Doherty probably makes even him feel uncomfortable.The simple point I think you are missing you right little silly billy you is that it was a perfectly reasonable post by Rudolph ( i think he means rude ol'' phucker) praising a much maligned player, and maybe you are a little too far away to realise there is always a bit of Doc bashing in the air. To be fair, anyone who takes a bit of stick for defending someone against the run of play is quite entitled to give a bit of I told you so when the said player his proving his doubters wrong. Trust me on this, Doherty is only ever one mistake away from an out of proportion slating. Have you read the thread Houston? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Houston Canary 0 Posted April 2, 2010 Yes, gut, I am. I see there is the usual bunch of defenders excusing a blindingly stupid play, and hardly anyone jumping on the supposed bandwagon of slating Doherty.Have you seen the Thanks Russel, Doherty and Ref thread? More of the same. A legitimate comment about a horrendous pass by Doherty and here come the Doherty defenders blaming everyone but him for that goal.

Doherty played a poor pass tonight and in fairness it cost us a goal. I''m yet to see Nelson play a good pass, and, considering that Askou had been fit for a while until the latest injury, why was Doherty been playing?Reason is that he is our best centre half. If you fail to see the positives of his play then you are clearly way out of your depth. A succession of managers have picked him over 200 times for Norwich City and before the obvious Grant/Roeder/Gunn retort, two of them are Worthington and Lambert. I don''t doubt that Whitbread will end up (fitness pending) first choice on the left of central defence, but I''ll be very, very surprised if he isn''t partnering the Doc.

GJP 79 Posted April 2, 2010 It was just one of them things, you see it at all levels of football, players at the very top of the game do things like that. Perhaps on the superior surface at Carrow Road it would have been more likely to make it back to the ''keeper. Perhaps not. But it''s done with now. The player will know he''s made a mistake, the manager will know it and they''ll just move on to the next game and put it behind them (like this whole game in general).

Jacko 0 Posted April 2, 2010 It was a shocker from Doc it has to be said because in a similiar situation like at Colchester we played the percentages and did''nt rely on a poor surface in our own third whereas Colchester were culpable of surrending possession in dangerous positions for a couple of our goals. On a dreaful surface playing a back pass from the half way line was never a sensible ball and that changed the game completely. Don''t get me wrong Doc has been magnificent this season. Only last week I was applauding the way he chased down Beckford, I thought that was an outstanding piece of defending. But given the state of the pitch it was a pretty brain dead piece of football and something I am sure Lambert would have warned them about. But these things happen from time to time.

Flashman 0 Posted April 2, 2010 Yes he has been consistently picked by managers and this has coincided with our fall down the leagues since we signed him. He has done OK this season against poor opposition and has found his level - although still prone to making regular mistakes. I''ll continue in this vein until he goes as he is not good enough. By the way, how many clubs tried to sign him when he looked as though he was on his way out of the club at the begining of the season? Why didn''t he move to a Championship club at the end of last season as Marshall, Clingen and Croft did? The answer my friends is that nobody wanted him. I rest my case?

AJ 1,218 Posted April 3, 2010 I like the Doc, he can be very good when he''s on his game. However, I cannot, no matter how hard I try, understand why the hell he was trying to pass the ball back, whilst we were attacking, on a boggy, sticky, bobbly pitch, from the HALF WAY LINE, to our goalkeeper. Stupidity.He panicked, we need Askou back! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Sim086 0 Posted April 5, 2010 yes i agree doherty has had a pretty good season apart from the odd mistake, but we also have to remeber how increadibly poor this league is. i dont think doherty will start next year sub at best, and where as nelson is good in the are, his poor distribution will mean he also wont start as we can get away with his mistakes in league one but not in championship. i honestly believe that whitbread was bought for next season and not this, as cleary after being out for so long he wouldnt feature this season.
