Shrewsbury Town boss Sam Ricketts says that items were thrown at a vehicle carrying injured player Greg Docherty during their 1-1 draw with Bristol Rovers.

Docherty was forced off with an eye injury against the Gas, and was transported to hospital in what Ricketts said was a Shrewsbury Town-branded vehicle.

However, upon trying to leave the Memorial Stadium, Docherty says that objects were thrown at the vehicle.

He said: "Doch had some bleeding in his eye and he wanted to carry on, but the longer it went on he started to struggle with his vision a little bit.

"He left early to go to the eye hospital - I'm a bit disappointed with how the vehicle was treated leaving the ground, getting objects thrown at it as they were trying to leave the ground to go to hospital.

"That was disappointing. Hopefully he'll be okay and we'll assess him when we get the news back from the hospital."
