    I agree as I saix to @Fordy117@Fordy117 but they do tend to ask what we think is silly money but then get it.
    Teams struggling at the bottom end of the Premier would weigh up the risk £13 m or whatever they could negotiate against Championship football.

    The foolishness with Bowyer isnt that he moved him on, that was understandable. What made him look foolish was playing Doyle as a number 10 behind 2 strikers.

    I just can't see him not coming back in January given the number of goals he's scored. He's our player it'd be madness to let him stay at Swindon given we're short of options up front.

    Only Bradford City fans will have a discussion is a leading goalscorer in the league should come back and that's because the club sends out negative vibes like 5 years recovery for one man etc and we need a Mickey Mouse cup run.

    Bradford City fans need to demand a change in thought process. Owners that want to back the club or just get out!

    Most other clubs will be please a loan player is doing well because they would be coming back.

    I posted we should not have let him go, but would keeping Doyle be at the detriment of being less competitive in other areas of the team.
    Lets see how the January window pans out, did Bradford City tell Swindon not to play Doyle as we didn't want him Cup tied.

    It seems a total no brainer to me. Yes I know getting him off the wage bill allowed for other signings i was fine with that given he'd been pretty ineffective. But I can't believe the cash couldn't be stumped up given he'll now be full of confidence and we're woefully short upfront.

    Even if he comes back and his form doesn't continue I'd rather him doing f all for us than pushing his loan club above us in the league.

    Which Mickey Mouse Cup is that then, the FA Cup ?, you do talk some rubbish at times.
    The 5 year comment was a opinion offered by @wetherbywhaler@wetherbywhaler, lets hope he's wrong but I would think he knows far more about the goings on at our
    Club that any fan.

    It's a pity that Doyle played for City at the beginning of the season because Swindon fans believe that Karl Robinson is watching him for Oxford United.
    If true it may strengthen City's case in January.

    Get the ginger tw@t recalled and play him in the same role as he’s been playing at Swindon. If he sulks then he spends over half a season rotting in the reserves or whatever. Utterly sick and tired of seeing his name on the scoresheet every week, while our forwards struggle. Enough is enough!!

    Why are they watching him for this season & how could it strengthen our case?
    He can't play for anyone else this season, you even alluded to it in your intial sentence :@/

    Doyle scores again!!

    16 goals this season.

    Swindon now top of the league and laughing at Bradford. Great deal for them.

    He simply has to be brought back in January. Even if it's just to derail Swindon

    He’s on for another hatrick.
    Swindon won’t want to send him back.
    Cash in on his form!

    Correct. He at least comes back 2nd Jan.
    Swindon then have a month to play to our tune.

    As I posted you post some crap, have you given any more thought to our bet for the Darby/Rimmer Foundation, or is it all hot air ?.

    Agreed. No point holding all the cards if were not going to use them. We recall him and they either stump up a sizeable chunk of cash to help us buy in an even better replacement or he plays for us. We shouldnt be having our pants down over this

    We can only cash in with regards Swindon, it's not as if we could start a bidding war with a third party.
