    RTE say that he is in the process of being loaned to us, could be right and could be wrong.

    His best days are undoubtedly behind him, but could he do for us?

    How many loan players are we allowed?

    Not sure SB, but I believe we're allowed more than if we were in the big league, perhaps 5?

    Well known celebrity here and maverick politician (Mick Wallace) has just tweeted that Doyle will be a QPR player by this evening, so I would think that he is indeed coming in.

    I think he could go a job for us.....but I wouldn't want to rely on just him for the next month or more!!

    would be a very disappointing signing. Unless we get a proven goalscorer in we can forget about promotion

    Maybe as a BZ replacement but not for Austin as simply not going to score sufficient goals.

    No sure on this one, Danny Graham would be better

    He's actually a very useful player and I'd be happy with him if we got a smaller nippy forward as well.
    Doyle has been trying to leave wolves now for about 18 months.
    He can play the lone man very well as he has the strength to hold the ball and will also please the crowd by running his socks off every game.
    Plenty of big clubs have sniffed around him for years. Id take him on a six month contract only. He desperately wants to get back into the Republic team under O'Neill and whoever gets him will get a player who will be trying to rejuvenate his career.
    Sadly though, I don't think he will score the goals to get us up

    Agree 100%. Useful player but a Zamora/Johnson replacement not Austin. Just doesn't score enough goals.

    Sky are saying we've signed Doyle and Aaron Hughes till the end of the season.

    I should also add that I prefer us to play a 4-4-2 (or variants of) and Doyle would be a great foyle for Austin and/or AJ.

    Is Hughes a LB or RB?

    I think this is a good bit of business but I will be slightly underwhelmed if another forward isn't signed as well.
    I'll have a small wager that Doyle will be a big hit with our fans!

    LB, RB, CB and can even play in the midfield.

    I suppose this is a good bit of business too as his versatility will cover several positions.

    Harry seems to have gone for experience to get us across the line.

    I used to think very highly of Doyle but was he not being used as sub when Wolves were in Prem & Champ, not sure what he has been doing lately?
