The only factor in this decision is cash (I suppose I’m just recalling games where he played against us!)

Thinking exactly the same thing. Doyle and Hughes are young but I do not feel they are mobile. One of the issues for us is that when we have a corner and Kitching and Thomas go up it is either Milan or Da Silva covering from the centre cirlce and they have no height, they have speed but that has caused a few problems and is why many fans get onto Da Silva's back. Many times the issue has not been speed, with him, it's height or build. If we brought in Hughes or Doyle we would possibly still have the same problem.
My philisophy in life is if you have a problem solve it, in this situation I do not think our problem is being solved.

Everyone quick to write off Thomas and Kitching. Both are decent have different attributes, are as experienced as Doyle and more so than Hughes and both still have improvement in them. We need another CB cover as Lati worries me but if we have £10m then get a striker

Not many of the team or management are still at our club when Doyle played for us in 2023/24. No sure how much affection he has if any for us now to be much of a draw and suspect its all about the money. I am not sure how many cars, watches and pairs of trainers a young man needs nowadays

Not that I think we're signing him, but he and Eccles are mates.

I am struggling to think of one goal we have conceded directly from play after we have had an attacking corner.

I know Hughes and Doyle are better but I’d probably take a punt of Ethan Pye. Only apparently three million and highly rated.

Good on the ball, good recovery speed and aggressive.

They do have a good partnership and whenever they play, we concede less goals and more clean sheets despite what individual stats may say.

Clean sheets is a team stat but the combinations cannot be underestimated.

The player that I'd imagine was put off signing for us due to the fanbase was Dublin.

With the amount of crosses we put in Moore would have been a great signing but crazy wages

25% sell on and a buy back clause.

I hate buy-back clauses. Just makes it a glorified loan, essentially.

Would have liked him, but would prefer someone with better pace.

Wrexham are throwing far more money at it than we have done (Net). Callum Doyle is an exceptional signing, wish he was coming here.

So the solution is just to throw money at it ?

If Doyle is that good why did Leicester not sign him when they had him there ?

Great signings, but it doesn't guarantee success.

Im not sure how they get round ffp rules as their turnover wouldn't justify their expenditure.

It's over a few seasons. I might be wrong but theoretically they could spend 100mil and if they get promoted, means nothing.

If they don't go up, it won't affect them. Media darlings will mean it would only be a point or 2 deduction.

Surely you wouldn’t want him on the deal Wrexham have done??

They'd have loaned him back to Man City for the rest of the season then.
