The Hibs TV one when he first signed was a belter too. He thought he'd signed for Hearts and referred to us as such.

Ha ha, Ray Wilkins, what a bizarre signing that was for us.
He was absolutely useless, did he ever actually move out of the centre circle?!
I actually thought Docherty was a decent player and was one of the few who looked the part out of that batch of loans. His worst game was that final when he was ripped apart by a half fit Andy Driver.
I wouldn't defend his attitude for a second. The smirk and 'no chance' in the interview, referring to us a Hearts and his 'don't give a ****' on Twitter point to a total roaster. Would still argue he was and is a decent player though.
Logans performance against Dundee United in the semi was how he best debut from a keeper since Hatch played against the Germans.
Il be honest I don't get the savage hatred towards him at all.
Personally think it's all a bit milked.
Iv seen he was "laughing and joking about" after the final. To me he looks raging after being humiliated until O'Connor or another player slaps him on the face and he laughs"
The only reason he said no chance as his answer was because the interviewer said "is there no chance we will see you at hibs next season?"
I would bet if the interviewer never said no chance in the question, he wouldn't of said no chance as his reply.
Fwiw the majority on here rated him as a player until that day.
Maybe not .... but Conrad's story from last season was the stuff of fitba dreams and you would have expected the so called experts on MOTD to be aware of it and if they were going to mention him at all make folk aware of what he had done.
There's players getting named on this thread whose names shouldn't be mentioned in the same breath as the legend that is Conrad Logan.
True but it was because we signed gutless no marks like Doherty that we ended up where we did. The standard of player we used to sign back then was appalling. The 2012 cup final team is up there with one of the worst team in recent history. Filled with characters like Doherty who couldn't give a flying one about hibs and where happy just to take their wages and piss off without a care in the world after causing the most humiliating final in the clubs history.
Given the players were arguing about bonuses apparently the night before I think it is fair to say that that Doherty wasn't the only one with a terrible attitude that day.
Doherty was a decent player for Hibs
O'Connor, Murray and Sproule in the last few months of that season were utterly useless.
We won't touch them though....they're one of our own
AFC Wimbledon.
Saw him play against Southend on Boxing Day and was anonymous. As an aside watched Southend play Sheff Utd yesterday.
Scougall really is the tiniest footballer I have ever seen. Built like a ten year old. Jon Fleck ran the game for Sheff and Matt Done came on but didn't really do anything of note.
Over the piece Doherty was a better than decent player for us.
He was a drastic improvement on what we had before and put in some top performances for us. The wave of loan signings are often criticised but they were an improvement on what we had and helped keep us up and get to a cup final that we'll all wish we hadn't got to.
Doherty was hung out to dry in the cup final by Fenlon's wide open tactical approach, with players doubling up on him down their left. He was raging, he should have been raging and it showed in the interview. He then lashed out on twitter after copping loads of abuse - not that unreasonable.
I don't really have that much of a problem with Doherty. Wilkins stealing a wage acting the impostor in our midfield whilst saluting the huns was unforgivable. Paul Tosh s******g out a tackle when we lost 3-0 in the League Cup at McDiarmid Park just about made me have an aneurysm, and Colin Calderwood's lukewarm, disinterested and utterly inept performance as manager are far more offensive to me.
