Poor old Doc, being escape-hosted in two positions

User Posted Link

Assistant manager Doug Livermore said: “The experience he’s had at Premiership level and international level makes him a great addition to the squad.

“Obviously his favourite position is as a central defender and the gaffer will want to be playing him there.

“But there will be occasions if need be that he can go up front.”
