Cobblers get Doig fitness boost

Chris Doig

Northampton Town captain Chris Doig came safely through 90 minutes for the reserves to raise hopes of an imminent return to full fitness.

The 27-year-old defender has been on the sidelines since picking up a hamstring injury during the Cobblers' FA Cup tie at Leeds in November.

Doig played for Northampton's second-string against Colchester on Tuesday.

"He will have benefited from that," reserves coach Ian Sampson told the club's website.

"He looked a bit stiff towards the end of the game, but he got 90 minutes under his belt and that's the main thing," he added.
