According to an official at the club, Mannix was waiting for international clearance.

As for Doughty, well someone who was at Darlington told me that he wasn't very good in the air, especially when under pressure.

Personally I think Branch was played instead of Doughty in order to support the young lad Aswad Thomas. I suppose playing two very young lads was dangerous in Coleman's eyes, so played Branch as he has experience.
