Good news regarding the Doc...

and no, he's not leaving...

"Worthington also had words of praise for another of last season's bit-part players, Gary Doherty, who made the last of his 20 first team starts in a 3-0 defeat at Blackburn in February.

The Republic of Ireland utility man has slimmed down during the summer, on his manager's orders, and the benefits were there for all to see at the weekend as he turned in an impressive display in the heart of the City defence.

?Gary deserves great credit,? said Worthington. ?He has lost nearly a stone in weight over the summer, which he was asked to do. He has worked very hard at it and we have shifted a lot of weight off him. He has come back in very good shape and played very well today."
