January League 2 transfers

[JannerinCardiff]

Even with Yates and Doyle I’m confident we’ll finish above Swindon this season.. #believeinLowe

 

[Willis88]

Doyle back to Swindon.

I'd wager Swindon taking one of the 3 spots for sure now. Remaining 2 between ourselves, them up the road (unless they've just started their annual slide into the playoffs) or Crewe.

That signing is only bad for Bradford.

Swindon have signed Hallam Hope, Jerry Yates and now Doyle... together with youth loans from Premier League and Championships teams. They're a force to be reckoned with now and how they can afford it all we'll never know! :shocked:

Dont understand the logic at Bradford, allowing Eoin Doyle to sign for Swindon, after scoring 23 goals for them in 22 games!

Nothing like giving a main rival a helping hand - they must have some great strikers at Bradford.

I would imagine that teams at our level can't afford to hold on to a player just to prevent him going to a rival. He clearly wasn't happy at Bradford so best to let him go. Seeing as Swindon was his only option, it makes sense, although it is probably galling for them.

Reported as £100,000 fee.

Eligible for clash with Exeter on Saturday.

He must be due a hat trick surely? :scarf:

I wonder if Bradford are having money issues , 2 high wage strikers ( top scorer in the division and their club top scorer by some way ) allowed to leave in the final week before the transfer window closes .

I was told by a Swindon fan that Bradford were exceeding the FFP rules so had to get rid of some high wage earners...whether that is true who knows.The other rumour was that Doyle has been given only a 6 month contract on lower wages so he may move on in the summer...again who knows if true

Really? :crazy: And the evidence for that is.....

Have you not noticed Colchester and Northampton? 2 massively in form teams. Could be a high points total required.

Bradford have also let James Vaughan go to Tranmere.

In form but with a points and GiH deficit they will need a couple of teams to slip up badly to make the cut.

But I do agree about high points total this season. It'll be tight all the way to the end

The form table for the season up to now would show Swindon are better than us.
Yes we’ve got games in hand but the points aren’t in the bag yet.
