His fight with Hunter was when he was playing for Derby after Swales sold him,i remember signing a petition organised by Helen Bell to stop him going.
Mike Doyle wasn't dropped to accomodate Marsh it was Tony Towers.
Not in the games I went to and in those days I went to virtually all of them home and away.
My memory was that it was Towers. But I also seem to remember that Allison tinkered about with the team when it became obvious that it wasnt working. So it could be that Doyle made way at some point,
Just checked and Doyle only missed one game after Marsh signed, West Ham at home, we won 3-1. Doyle started in all the other games.
