LONG-serving Greenock player Thomas Docherty was awarded with a star-studded testimonial match on Sunday.
Club captain Docherty marked his 10th year at the club with a game against celeb side Dukla Pumpherston at Ravenscraig.
The Dukla team featured ex-Morton manager John "Cowboy" McCormack and former Rangers player John McDonald.
And lining up for the Greenock select were former Greenock players John Paul Dow, Graham Black and Alan Barnes.
Docherty, who turns 30 next month, was presented with a specially embroidered Greenock strip to mark the occasion.
Greenock Juniors treasurer Neil Martin said: 'We would like to thank everyone for turning out and showing their support for Thomas. It was a great occasion and a fitting tribute to the player for his outstanding loyalty to the club.'
