A true blue legend and one of my boyhood heroes. He played for the club he loved and he epitomised everything that is good about Manchester City. He wore the shirt with as much pride as any ardent fan. He had a tough uncompromising style in defence alongside an elegance and eye for goal when he operated in midfield. I read that he only lost one Derby in the sixteen that he appeared in; some achievement. I'm glad that he got to see us win the cup; as the tag of being the last City captain to lift a trophy became a torment to him as the years rolled by and the clock ticked at the swamp. Despised United, loved City. Rest in Peace Mike Doyle, never forgotten.
