    Pretty sure there will have been a break clause for the Jan transfer window. This would cover both sides.
    However what that would/could be is really anyone guess.

    As we are the parent club we'd be looking after his recovery from injury just like Blackpool are with Devitt so just your cynical mind.

    If that’s the case his ‘injury’ wouldn’t be now. It’d be a couple of games time.

    Devitt is still at the club but he's just been going back to Blackpool from time to time so they can monitor him.

    I have a suspicion its Yates as he runs around like a mad man and puts in his all. I'm kind of split between it being Doyle or Yates at the moment. However I am sure Wellens has a plan to bring in a half decent replacement, he has done so every time we have had an injury this season and they have all done a great job.

    Also you have to realise Wellens has done this a few times now, planted a seed and said a player was injured only for them to play in the following game. Or the fact that we can't afford a striker and none are coming in.... Then Doyle comes to us. I like Wellens smokes and mirrors tactics, keeps everyone guessing (even our own fans)

    Well his smoke and mirrors tactic certainly fooled Rhodes and Bradford City with Doyle. Looks like you lot are saying you can't afford Doyle or any other signing at the moment.

    Having looked at the league and your fixtures in December i get the feeling with you all being 5 points clear from 3rd that you feel you can extend that gap and come the start of the year could be out of well gone.

    Think this is why your clubs mentality has changed because teams like Bradford, Plymouth who should be in the top 3 are not.

    So if Doyle comes back to us you all should have 1 foot in league 1 by Jan.

    You've footballing men running your club and you know how to play the game but Bradford need Doyle back for sure.

    However, if Yates is injured and Doyle comes back then Bradford have to believe we can catch you up because of not that makes only 2 automatic spots left.

    Good managers don't worry about the opposition they have confidence in their own players, respect them by all means but don't change the way you play.

    It's 5 points and they've played a game more? Regardless of thr Doyle situation it's hardly insurmountable?

    True but we haven't won that game in hand.

    Points on the board always better than games in hand.

    I just think apart from maybe Forrest Green they have an easy December and I can see them extending their lead from 3rd place by the start of the year.

    If they're 5-8 points clear come the end of the year then they've one foot in div 1. Unfortunately I think Leeds have one foot in the PL with 11 points from 3rd. It's not often that a team leading gets overtaken by 3 clubs when they have a gap going in to the next year.
