Thread: Tommy Doyle deal - CONFIRMED

    Tommy Doyle deal - CONFIRMED

    I only ask as it’s gone very quiet and I would have assumed we would get him in before the game at Ashton Gate

    Dragging on now.
    If it's not happening or was never happening we need to start bringing in a few players soon

    Glen Williams (WOL) twitter earlier this afternoon:

    Expect Cardiff to announce the signing of Tommy Doyle on loan from Man City later today.

    The player is in Cardiff and everything has been signed off which needs to be #CCFC #Bluebirds

    Hope so. Is this Glenn Wiliams pretty good with his news?

    I'd forgotten about him.
    Mrs Doyle would be an improvement on our current midfield!

    Logic would indicate we may have a chance of improving our squad if we dealt with other agencies than purely Unique Sports Group, who this season have represented McGuinness, Collins, Giles and Doyle in deals with us.

    Morison seems upbeat about him

    Coming from Man C he will be used to City's neat passing game....

    Even if the jury is still out on the Collins signing, how about using some of this famous ‘logic’ you are supposed to have and tell us why the arrival of McGuiness and Giles didn't improve the squad - both young talented players from Premier League clubs and now followed by an England U21 player from Man City. Who the hell cares who their agents are.

    Logic would indicate it's little surprise you've no concern about an unhealthy link with an agency that provides us with the majority of players recently, seemingly.

    Whilst you correctly point out Giles and McGuinness are good players, it raises the question if we would even have looked at them if they were represented by other agencies. The question is also applicable to Doyle, because it beggars belief that any positive evaluation of Doyle could have stemmed from this seasons loan debacle.

    Logic would also indicate that fans do indeed care about the club seemingly being reliant upon one agency. Is it the case the club are researching players or simply, in the majority of cases, simply going with what an agency offers?

    Logic would also indicate that it would be surprising if people didn't have concerns given that, including Doyle, we have nine players all represented by Unique Sports Group in our squad.

    Logic would indicate the issue is we appear to be overwhelmingly reliant upon a single agency for sourcing players rather than any inherent problem within the agency structure per se.

    If the "transfer committee" approach is "Do USG have a player? If yes, get them else look elsewhere" then that is an area of concern.

    Does seem like our scouting network is a pile of wank
