    NONSENSE, serious conversations will have taken place between Doyle, Bower and the team. He will be accommodated with his best interests at heart in view of him being in excellent form. Let’s stop the negativity before he’s even put his boots on. He won’t be on his own up front with a long face like last season so don’t you worry your cotton socks!

    For me anything between 7-10 will be a good return assuming he doesn't go back to Swindon. Even if he goes back to Swindon i don't see him getting another 20+ in the 2nd half of the season. A goal in the first 2 or 3 games will be massive or doubts will start creeping in not just from him but the fans as well.

    2 or 3 games!! If he doesn't score at Crawley the conspiracy theorists amongst our fanbase will be out. Oh he doesn't start, the conspiracy theorists will be out...

    Wouldn't be at all surprised it was pretty low key from the club announcing his return
    Sure it's been said on here we had to recall before we could negotiate either a transfer or renegotiate the terms of the loan
    An awful long way to go yet but I don't think this is an end to things

    What Wellens is reported as indicating, “SWINDON Town manager Richie Wellens has not ruled out making a permanent move for former loanee Eoin Doyle after the Bradford City striker was recalled by his parent club on Wednesday”. https://www.swindonadvertiser.co.uk/sport/18146834.swindon-town-manager-richie-wellens-doesnt-rule-making-permanent-move-scoring-sensation-eoin-doyle/

    I just cant see our lads making chances like that lot, between 1 and 3 goals for me, and at least one of which will be a penalty.

    Interesting to see that every one of those goals were scored inside the box
    The service to him was 90% of the goal
    Hope GB has noted this we have to get the ball in the box for him
    Not one of our strong points so far this season

    I would add that for that to work, he needs to allowed to stay in around the box!

    Exactly
    Our style of play so far this season doesn't suit Doyle's style of play
    We have to change or Doyle will become a passenger
    Bigger test for GB than for Doyle in my opinion

    With the way we've been setting up recently ........ Doyle would then be offside for most of the game !! ;)

    I agree. Change is definitely required to get the best out of Doyle.

    Do we have the players in the squad who are capable of changing the way they play to provide the service for Doyle to get into goal scoring positions? Yes, imo

    Do we currently utilise tactics which without change will enable the service to be provided to Doyle? No, as a general rule. Deep lying midfielders, conventional wingers knocking high balls into the area for defenders to pick off or using the hoofball aren't what Doyle needs.

    Do we have a manager who will change his tactics and formation to accommodate the country's top goal scorer and establish us in the auto promotion spots? It's possible but not if he continues with his safety first approach.

    Wonder if we'll change to accommodate Doyle, and inadvertently start conceding...

    You thought we weren't going to conceed any goals until the end of the season?

    What a strange way to try and make a point?

    What an even stranger interpretation of what I said.

    Playing 7 at the back, we weren't conceding many.

    But let's see what happens...
