UCD sign Doyle from Bohs!

Scored a "pure" hat-trick against Drogheda in Belfield - left foot, right foot and header, all in the same half and with no other goals in between. Scored a brilliant free against Shels (on his Belfield Park debut I think) and hit the bar with a sensational volley, but was injured most of the rest of the time.

It was thought he would go to Drogheda, but no news yet. Class player when he's not injured though.

Can't understand why Doolo dropped your best striker at the time for the run in either?

'Cos he was a crap manager?

Willie D will be class in a few years, if he gets the right advice and training and luck !

What are the chances he'll still be here then though?

Probably our best under 21 player,excellent talent,deserved to be given a chance, but wasn't,so had to leave for 1st team football. Shouldn't have been let go.

Sounds very encouraging again!

Slightly less positive here.

Rumour was that Doolo wasn't too happy that Robbie was pretty open about leaving which to me smells of sour grapes. Out of those two I know which one will be more fondly remembered in Belfield. Anyway whenever he was dropped/suspended we all got to see his wonderful collection of hats.

Unlike some players who left the club in recent times, most notably those with a habit to stray off their line, he doesn't get much stick from the fans when he comes back to play in Belfield.

Let's not forget about the matching gloves!

As for Doyler getting stick - there was a few "judas" shouts when he showed up at the Bray League Cup game last year.

That was probably me !

I would like to take this opportunity to point out that Schumi is a "Junior Gypsy".

There were a few Judas shouts when we beat Bohs this year too - especially after he ploughed into Jennings a couple of minutes after coming on and nearly started a huge scrap! Must have been trying to get himself sent off so we'd be more likely to get the points - nice lad!

By the way Roo69 - what goes on the message board, stays on the message board! No telling tales!

Unless you're Hugh Davey obviously... Hi Hugh! Just signed you for York in CM, but you're not very good and your control score is fairly low, so I might release you again... How's Gav Whelan? Any more news on the Swedish wan?!
