He must be taking a huge paycut to join us again given that he was on $2,456,786 a week when he was with us.

*One for the ex-GMKers
*Australian keyboards don't have a pound key so I have converted the salary to Australian dollars

No, it was clearly $3,000,000

Nor do I fancy myself as a keyboard warrior. Just a pissed off fan; reckon this new me will fit in just fine

But you could withdraw match day commentary - that's a far greater threat!

Ok so i was never his greatest fan but could be just the player for L2. As long as no one calls him Doyler. That was really annoying.

It has already begun, from the official:

After making over 280 appearances for the club during his first spell, 'Doyler' is hoping to feature heavily once again and targeted an immediate return to League One

I'll call him Mike, then at games when I say it people around me will think I know him personally.

He likes to be called 'MD' or 'The MD'

Although from what I remember he rarely manages to direct a pass.

Lads, hey, Lads. Yeah?

I reckon I'm just gonna have to resign myself to the fact he's back

Even after sleeping on it I'm still really sad and disappointed by it!

I will just hold my own protest by refusing to applaud his name as it's read out, refuse to stand when / if he scores, and if you see any commentary during the season that has no name associated to it you know it's relating to him! Or I will have to make a nickname for him!

If he goes on to become our player of the season (or to make it fairer wins any award at the end of the season) I will join the 'donate to charity' thing we have going on here!

He isn't a Marlon King, or a Lee Hughes you know? He hasn't killed anyone or beat the s**t out of women! :happy:

What disappoints me is the age. Again it all smacks of short term. I would like to see players coming in who are potentially going to be around for 2-3 years. At that age what you have done the last couple of seasons stands for nothing. We have seen it so many times players come here and their legs go.

I know, I know, but I can't just start liking him on that basis! That would be slightly hypocritical!

Really was unsure about him in The Championship, but we have been crying out for men in this team in years of just having weak children everywhere.

Given that he has been the captain in a team winning the League we are going into I can't see this being anything other than good. Now we need more signings and to get the squad complete as soon as possible. Even if we don't get promoted, having Doyle in the team should go some way to stopping us getting relegated.

Also, it looks like @sw88 has caught the Jacob Murphy bug from me. Next thing you know he'll be having 'accidental' typos when Doyle scores and does the commentary on here!

We will be signing Division 4 players. We want a good enough squad to get promoted but not stuck with them on long contracts.

Fantastic easy money for a good cause.....

£20 to a charity of the winners choice

if he plays less than 75% of all league games. I win
75% or more you win.
Click to expand...

Given the last fiasco involving a bet when I was told my charity wasn't good enough I'm somewhat reluctant but this seems a banker to me.

So what is it - 35 games in the league?

Ok I will do it as well. Pleased confirm acceptance.
