I have a lot of confidence in the recruitment nouse of Wellens and Jewell.
We are making opportunities that other strikers will put away, albeit not as many as the ginger Pele would (probably). It'll be good to go into the New year maintaining (or extending) our 9 point cushion over 4th place for a little leeway.
I am by no means trying to take away anything from Doyle, but he has had the kind of service that any decent poacher will thrive on. He's said so himself that he gets a lot of tap ins. But then, he has to have the footballing brain to be in the right place at the right time.
I reckon the Marc Richards that first joined us would get 25-30 in this team.

I think we've all pretty much said what can be said on the situation... and then some more.
We'll find out either way soon.

Anyone know the exact date that a deal has to be finally sorted ?, I know he's still with us on January 4th, but sure it has to be sorted before the Crewe game on the 11th.

the rules just say 'in the winter transfer window', so I guess it comes down to the terms of the contract. Which I guess was your question and that nobody can answer it.

IIRC, the contract says they have a small window in which to make a decision.

Thats what I believe, I'm sure somewhere on here someone actually gave the dates of the 'window', have searched but cannot find the post. |

of course him going back would be a massive blow. I have absolutely no idea what you are on about.
(I mean that without malice)
Yates will score some, we know Anderson and Woolery are a little bit fits and starts.
and yes Doyle will slow down.
plan B would have to be of Yates goalscoring contribution.
but it's out of our hands whatever
I was thinking of the scenario if both Doyle and Yates are recalled. In plan B we trust I guess. Anyway, this thread will be redundant one way or another in a few days time. |

Why don't you knock it off with them negative waves? Why don't you dig how beautiful it is out here? Why don't you say something righteous and hopeful for a change?
Crap!

Just thinking. What’s the point in having a season long if they all have a recall option in January.
Why not just have window-to-window loans which can be extended if agreed.

All season long loans have a clause that it can be terminated in January if the loan is not working. Bear in mind we signed May on a season loan, we/the player/Pompey don't want him to stay any longer than then as the loan obviously hasn't worked out for him or us. If Rotherham had an injured striker then they would probably take Yates back as it saves them getting an extra body in as he is already contracted to them too. Some loans, especially for the younger players can have a termination clause included if the player is injured, hence Ballard going back to Arsenal otherwise that would also tie up an extra loan spot in the squad. 8 being the maximum loan players at any one club IIRC. |

Doyle failed to score yesterday. He's yesterday's man now if not quite last year's! He's reached his peak and he's now on a downward trajectory! Why would we want him back under those circumstances?

Usually I'd agree but on that forum there seems to be a bunch of them who while incredibly turncoat are also deadly serious. Act as if they never held a previously polarising opinion.

Scrap that, having now seen the post I see it has a cheeky winking face. Which was missing off the quote on here.
So on that case yep, it's tongue on cheek. Still stand by how some of them on there post though.

Although I don't believe it, I suppose a pre-contract agreement could be a possibility?
