Good post Jackal, but I hope you were being diplomatic using the 'or' there
Haven't we handicapped ourselves enough by putting a 39 year old in the engine room all season when a side needs to be in the top 2 of 24 to get out of this league?
People like Doyle, I do too. I would be very happy if he helped coached us to success over the next few years. And his role in the latest shenanigans is very commendable, being there (according to the Mirror piece) as captain for a team mate who had been maligned like that. But please guys, let's not handicap ourselves by planning to build around a 40 + midfield general next year, NL or L1.
