BritAbroad Posted September 12, 2020 Report Share Posted September 12, 2020 https://www.swindonadvertiser.co.uk/sport/18716972.swindon-town-midfielder-michael-doughty-leaves-swindon-town-due-personal-reasons/ Seems a little odd to completely leave a club for the reason listed, to me. Certainly give the guy a leave of absence for that reason, but to completely tear up a contract? Seems odd. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Silvio Dante Posted September 12, 2020 Report Share Posted September 12, 2020 I think what you have to remember is Doughty isn’t your run of the mill footballer. His dad is/was Nigel Doughty, ex owner of Forest, who died young from SADS. He’s exceptionally well off and doesn’t need football. With his dad dying young and a new baby, my guess he’s decided family over football. Nothing else to see here and fair play to him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's obviously a wealthy educated young man who has a lot going on in his life and throw in the daily commute from London he's decided he wants to put his family first.
