Ah, I see, you have the auld supporter goggles on. Fair enough. I think, and would hope McCarthy has bigger fish than Blackburn when the move comes. But of course you would like to see him there.

Plymouth fans reaction here : http://www.pasoti.co.uk/talk/viewtop...5884&start=120

They are not happy with the price as they seem to really rate him. One of the best young talents at the club in years, many claim.

Agree, they'd be my tip to go down this year.

I'm gonna go out on a limb and predict that story comes complete with a 'recommended by Trapattoni' angle.

**Charlie Darwin** · 10/07/2011, 3:18 PM

It seems being recommended by Trapattoni is the fastest was to ruin a transfer. Judging by the newspaper buzz over the past three years most of the Ireland squad should be at Fiorentina and Sampdoria by now.

Chuck look how many times you have been thanked in just a year and a half.

Tapattoni eh?

So arsenal or juve... poor Kevin.

Mick Wallace's dreams are coming true!

**Murfinator** · 11/07/2011, 1:01 AM

For all the Serie A links I don't think any any italian clubs have actually made a firm offer for any Irish player in traps reign. Either all the stories are fabricated or at most clubs are sending a scout or being credited getting material from media sources in relation to an Irish player. Its always the most tentative of tentative links these so I really wouldn't expect theres anything in Doyle to Juve.

Great as it'd be.

You are right, he is one of ours, I had Patrick McLoughlin in mind, the N.I. lad released by Newcastle.
