Forest chairman Doughty set to be made a peer

NOTTINGHAM Forest chairman Nigel Doughty looks set to be named a peer later this week and take a seat in the House of Lords.

The 53-year-old businessman, from Newark, is a major Labour party donor and also co-chairman and co-founder of Doughty Hanson & Co, a European private equity firm based in London and with offices throughout Europe.

Names were submitted by the Conservatives, Labour and the Liberal Democrats to the House of Lords Appointments Commission over the summer and it is understood that Doughty's name has been approved.

Isn't that a step down from being a saint?
 
Brilliant news!

Nigel, if you're reading this and you need a semi-literate Labour/Forest supporter to assist you in your Parliamentary duties, I'm your man.
 
Can he divert some parliamentary expenses to buying us a sodding left back?
 
I hope he sits next to Baroness Warsi and punches her lights out at break time.

Given the height disparity between them, he could just as easily sit on her.

If he inadvertently put his large shoe in her oversized trap, I would be satisfied.
 
Lord Doughty eh?

That will look impressive in the match-day program!

The peerage is probably just as likely as a reward for his (extensive) charitable donations as for his business acumen.
