Tony Docherty (born in East Kilbride) is a Scottish former footballer who is currently assistant manager at St Johnstone.

[edit] Career

Docherty's short career began in 1987 with Dunfermline Athletic before moving to English side Cambridge United. In the early 1990s, Docherty returned to Scotland, having spells with Stirling Albion, East Stirling and Albion Rovers.

During his time with the Coatbridge club, Docherty became SFA Development Officer for the Glasgow area, spending three years before a move to Falkirkas Community Coach. Upon Ian McCall's appointment as manager at Brockville, Docherty became assistant manager, and when McCall moved to take charge of Dundee United in early 2003, Docherty came as part of the management team. Following McCall's dismissal and Gordon Chisholm's subsequent appointment, Docherty was promoted to first team coach, a position he held under the successive management spells of Craig Brewster and Craig Levein.[1]

In November 2007, Docherty left Tannadice and moved to St Johnstone as assistant manager, working under former United player Derek McInnes.[2]
