Correct. Never done much apart from last season really to suggest he’s the one to pin our hopes on but just maybe league two is his level. I’m happy to be proven wrong Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm hoping the rumours are shit and he stays with Swindon. 25 in 32 games last season suggest he’ll be very good signing at this level.

BWFC_LOVE Posted July 4, 2020 Share Posted July 4, 2020 Would be buzzing with Doyle. He played alongside Evatt at Chesterfield, so happen that might work in our favour. Jason Lowe I really don’t get. Appreciate his loyalty, and his versatility could work in our favour, but he really is nothing special for me, and has been punching above his ability for the majority of his career. I’ve never understood how he has forged a career playing in the top two divisions for most of his career. Always been a League One player at best.

I won’t either but he could be the short term fix that gets us out of that league at the first time of asking. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don’t know tbh never seen him play, would hope evatt knows a bit about his style of play and if he signs him then that’s good enough for me.

Get that and agree, as long as we are in upper tiers of the Championship... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blondi Posted July 5, 2020 Share Posted July 5, 2020 Would anyone take Bridcutt back? He was unlucky with a couple of injuries when he played for us, but thought he was a tidy player and could fit into our new side. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Site Supporter RONNIE PHILLIPS Posted July 5, 2020 Site Supporter Share Posted July 5, 2020 I think their will be a few left field signings, players we've never heard of, most likely youngsters. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There’s very few players I’ve heard of who’ll be playing L2 next season and even less I know anything about. This Eoin Doyle fella, I’ve heard of him but don’t know a thing about how he plays and he is possibly the highest profile L2 player out there. As long as we don’t replace Bunney with Moxey.....

tomski Posted July 5, 2020 Share Posted July 5, 2020 Amazed people are unhappy we are about to snag Doyle. Supposedly the management believe Doyle is tailored to Evatts style. Great news imo. Also spearing going to Sunderland is good news. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He’s probably blagged them to double his Blackpool wage. His agent will be laughing all the way to the bank. I wouldn’t be unhappy with us signing Doyle, especially with how well he did last season and a few years ago alongside Evatt at Chesterfield, but it does strike me as a little odd that Swindon don’t seem to be looking to take him up to League One with them. I have seen him on a couple of dozen of occasions over the years and he always looked a bit ungainly on the ball. Fingers crossed he’s been a bit of a late bloomer though and that League Two is his level. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

birch-chorley Posted July 5, 2020 Share Posted July 5, 2020 Get the feeling that the club must be expecting normal service (gates open and matches played) resumed sooner rather than later Unless they are signing contracts with smaller salary to start with until things get going again Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
