Eoin Doyle

cant remember a centre forward pairing with more of a reputation at the same time at city? Maybe Boulding and Thorne was the last?

4-4-2 would do it. Keep it simple. Wingers. Wood and Mellor behind supporting. Reeves and another in cm to get on ball. Get it out wide

 

Doyle back. Pittman to Swindon. Taylor to leave City end of short deal to cover Doyle wage.

You just love to see it. Announce promotion.

 

Must be others leaving like Devine, Akpan maybe McCartan.

Devitt must be close to returning and Donaldson.

 

Definitely the right thing to do. Well done City. Hope management team and team get Doyle feeling the part and firing on all cylinders.

 

Fair play, we all know it was inevitable. You would be absolutely mad to not recall the countries leading goal scorer.

Lets see how this hits Swindon, and if he scores for you guys, although we definitely aren't a one man team.

I will miss the Ginger Pele song, it was great. Have fun singing it

 

Hmm as must as it sounds straight forward it isn't as teams will stop the supply outside.

Need CM players like Reeves to be more pressing forward. Stop taking the ball off the defenders to pass 5 yards.

 

Six years is a long fling.

 

I agree. Ridiculous to sell him and we certainly wouldn’t be playing him.. it was the astute and intelligent course of action.

 

Nah, pancake tuesday, and they are already selling eggs and flour in the shops.....!!!

 

hasnt Wood put in the most crosses in the league? That’s without thinking about our wingers.
Connolly I rate if he told to stick out wide and get service into the box he can deliver. Pritchard has a good record so far in this league. Then there’s Ismail to come off of the bench. then maybe a slight tweak and Devitt can play a part in the service.
we have the quality it’s Bowyers job to get them working in a formation

 

Its a sad day that we have to weaken a club like Swindon by bringing back a player that didnt want to be here. I hope he can continue his form but its unlikely as our football is awful. He will have to argue with Vaughan over penalty duties.

 

Maybe the 5 3 2 away from home against the tougher opposition which would sacrifice the wingers and 4 4 2 at home in games we'r should dominate?

 

like the idea of that. With reeves Cooke and Devitt in a midfield 3 to bridge that gap to front two away from home?

 

What money? Was there an offer we don't know about?

 

appreciate what you are saying but that would mean they need to double up out wide and we then should have space in the middle for our strikers

 

Well, I suppose there's not much more for me to say here.

Good luck for the season. Provided it's not at our expense, of course. I hope you (and Doyle) take plenty of points off those around us.
