  Departing Dundee United captain Ross Docherty is ready to prove his Premiership pedigree once again and hopes advice from a podiatrist has put an end to recent injury problems. The 32-year-old helped the Tannadice team finish fourth on their return to the top flight but made just 14 league starts. The former Ayr United and Partick Thistle midfielder, who led United to the Championship title in the previous campaign, missed most of October, November and March due to various niggles.

Wayne Docherty, a 41-year-old from Paisley, Scotland, has embarked on a unique challenge to run a marathon in every UK county while wearing a different size shoe for each race, starting from size 12 and increasing by half a size per marathon. This endeavor, dubbed the "Shoe Size Challenge," not only aims to raise awareness and funds for the charity Mary's Meals, which provides meals to schoolchildren in some of the world's poorest countries, but also to break a world record. Docherty, who has been running marathons since 2010, plans to complete this challenge within five years, with his journey beginning in his hometown and extending across the UK. His initiative has already garnered significant attention and support, reflecting his commitment to both personal achievement and charitable causes.
