He later joined Chadderton in November 2010,[11] scoring in the one and only match he played for the club.[12] Docker then joined Ashton United in November 2010.,[13] playing 3 games in February 2011.[14]

International call-up

In October 2007, Docker was called up by Pakistan. He was an unused substitute in a 2010 FIFA World Cup group play-off match against Iraq.[15]
