The window is open after all and all the spadework for the deal could have been done before. Won’t be signed until 1st Need to be registered the Friday before the game. So unless there is any special ruling because it falls on a Saturday then no. I assume either their transfer window is different or he goes on a free so he’ll be a free agent Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Traf Posted December 31, 2021 Share Posted December 31, 2021 Doyle's a free agent apparently. An "agreement" has been made on the remaining 18 months of his deal and he's getting a 3 yr deal in Ireland. That's our two highest earners gone in the last two months.

Which isn’t a bad business plan. They’d be difficult to get a fee for that would be more than what we would be paying in wages. They’re underperforming but did us a job of getting us out of L2. So we move them on for “free” but the money we’d save in agents fees, wages, clauses would be enough to then attract some players who have a limited amount of time left on their contracts with wages and bonuses Its smart competent business.

Traf Posted December 31, 2021 Share Posted December 31, 2021 I'm not saying it's bad practice, nor was I inferring we were struggling with the wage bill. We had to give Sarce & Doyle the deals they got to get them to sign for us. They did a good job in getting us back up at the first attempt and it has become clear that neither were good enough at this level. Sarcevic was particualrly disappointing. I think Doyle's age caught up with him after injury & covid in the summer and he wasn't as effective at pressing as last year and his confidence looks shot. The only issue is that we've no fit strikers at the club right now. If Charles signs tomorrow, he won't be match fit for a while. Much was made of Cole Stockton not being in Morecambe's last squad, but I'd heard he had Covid. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know FV can be questioned over a few points but I think the way they run the club is very clever and thought out. It’s not to make a quick buck, or to get giddy but it’s ran well especially with the transfer policies.

Whitesince63 Posted December 31, 2021 Share Posted December 31, 2021 Well we should know tomorrow on Doyle because if a deal has been done he won’t be playing but if it hasn’t then he should be out there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Site Supporter Tonge moor green jacket Posted December 31, 2021 Site Supporter Share Posted December 31, 2021 Well, no club confirmation and evatt saying Doyle situation is just rumours. So he's not gone then. Yet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Farnywhite Posted December 31, 2021 Share Posted December 31, 2021 Be a bit of a worry if Doyle does go and it turns out Dion is a like for like swap and we don’t bring in another striker as well . Doyle’s didn’t seem to get injured much and was ever present . Bako hasn’t been fit for more than a couple of weeks at a time . Dion hasn’t played this season so knowing our luck hamstring waiting to happen Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
