Oh dear. Obviously succumbing to the allure of "The Hills" and an "In Da Club" lifestyle... If that sort of move happens we can forget about him for good.

Steve Coppell has resigned as Reading boss.

That could be big news for Doyle, Long and the Hunts. Imagine one or two could leave now. Who knows what Reading will be like come the start of the next season and the longer it takes for them to get a new boss, the more likely it is for them to leave.
Looks like another Sean Thornton unfortunately. Id be surprised if some club in the championship doesnt take a chance on him.Quote:

Sean Thornton in fairness has turned his career around again...he was shipped out on loan to Shrewsbury with Martin Ling saying he would never play for Orient again. He did the business for Shrewsbury who couldn't afford to keep him, went back to Orient, knuckled down and played in 10 of the last 13...not bad for a chap who was told 'he would never play for the club again'...rumour has it he is being offered a new contract also.
Ok so it is league one but the guy is still only 25/26...undoubted potential...
Personally i think there will be a host of Premiership clubs willing to take punt on Doyle. He would be in most starting 11s from Villa down. Everton nearly had Hunt last year so maybe they will try again in the summer. Noel Hunt and long are stuck thereQuote:

Don't know what to think.....
I'd like to see it but I don't think Cork should take him on from a financial point of view. Unfortunately it'll probably mean the end of his international career.
Unfortunately for him yeah, but for Ireland its time someone like Lawrence or maybe even fahey took his squad place.Quote:
