Doherty, who returned to the Waterside men this season after being released by Premiership side Coleraine in the summer, pushed Knockbreda’s Miguel Chines, while inside the box, but amazingly for the Limavady man referee Ken Gibbons only cautioned him when a red card looked certain as he raised his hands.

“Michael did deserve to get sent-off, so the referee in fairness has done us a favour there,” stated Kee.
