Think some might just be trying to find a place for him where he can get the maximum game time in the remainder of the season. He’s good enough to play in the Championship, but unlike Harwood-Bellis, Doyle has not had significant playing time so far this season, so he could end up at a decent club but spending more time on the bench. I’m still hopeful he can go to somewhere like Blackpool, but it’s more important that he plays (see Fiorini at Lincoln City).I’m sorry but I cannot believe that people on here are discussing Tommy Doyle as a league 2 level player. It’s actually baffling. He is way way above that level. Half the teams in the championship are interested in loaning him but some people on here think he would be more suited to the 4th tier?
I agree.Think some might just be trying to find a place for him where he can get the maximum game time in the remainder of the season.

Good points. That was why I thought Blackpool would be a good fit, given their comfortable position in the table and their current injury woes. Someone mentioned that he has recently bought a house, so I would imagine that he's not heading too far geographically, but you're right in that he needs game time so probably needs to choose on that basis.I agree.
If you watch these 'fly on the wall' programmes, following a team through the season, managers are reluctant to bring players in, during Jan, who are not match ready. As one said 'I need players who have played and are up to speed'.
Doyle needs a few games to get up to speed. Champ clubs are unlikely to bring someone in who needs a month. By then they could have played 8 games!!!!
Yes but gametime is pointless if he’s not being challenged. No point sticking him in league 2 where he will literally be strolling through games and not improving one bit. He’d be better off playing 13 championship games than 22 league 2 games.Think some might just be trying to find a place for him where he can get the maximum game time in the remainder of the season.

That’s true, which is why it’s important that his next move is carefully chosen. His last year here was probably at a level where he was not pushing himself on, and at Hamburg he was starved of playing time, so the wrong choice now could see two seasons of underdevelopment. I still think Blackpool would be the best fit, but we don’t know his fitness levels and preferences.Yes but gametime is pointless if he’s not being challenged.

If he doesn't change his attitude, he's not going to make it here anyway.

On the flipside
They could be after another CM if Doyle is recallled to City seeing as Cardiff recalled our former DM Ryan Wintle earlier in the window.Think some might just be trying to find a place for him where he can get the maximum game time in the remainder of the season.

Yes I thought the day that set him back if I recall was when he played in the cup at Cheltenham and was subbed off with us losing and.Ilkay rescued it. Never really been seen since.That’s true, which is why it’s important that his next move is carefully chosen.

Made it to the bench for the Tottenham and Liverpool games, and played half an hour against Swansea in the next round, but most of his game time was then with the U23s. Harwood-Bellis came off against Cheltenham, too, but he then played out the rest of the season at Blackburn.Yes I thought the day that set him back if I recall was when he played in the cup at Cheltenham and was subbed off with us losing and.Ilkay rescued it.
