We can't know for sure until we know if Wombat has heard of him.

Excellent point.
Also no point in judging him until we know how excited he is to be here, and what car he drives.

Strike record prior to Wolves is a hell of a lot better though.
Was a big fan of his a few years ago but lost his way a bit at Wolves. If we get him and can get him playing pre-Wolves form then we would have an extremely dangerous player at this level.
I'd be happy with this though don't think it is necessarily needed.

I had heard that 40K per week figure as being his wages at Wolves too.

Maybe he could be a loan and therefore we pay only XX towards his wages?? Just a thought.

I'd imagine it would be a loan with both teams still paying what they are at the moment, ie we will contribute however much Waggy is on, just having a different player to try and spice things up.
Either that or he is prepared to taker a >50% pay-cut and Wolves are willing to top up the rest as is suggested we do with players we sell.

In this instance he may, though I doubt it, be willing to take a pay cut just to play at the higher level. I wouldn't.
nugent has a far better strike rate in international football than kevin doyle. neither is particularly relevant to either at the moment. nugent may not have been prolific in the last 30 games, but doyle hasn't been prolific during the last 2 years.
have seen kevin doyle a fair bit for wolves recently (bro supports them). not only doesn't he score, he doesn't really look like scoring. he looks a shadow of his former self to me, lost a yard of pace, and has been poor for three years. still works hard, and shows some good touches, but there are cheaper options out there surely. doesn't seem like a typical pearson signing either.

I very much doubt the DOF would be signing someone on the reported 40k given they are leading the drive to cut down costs.

Agreed. Now the Thais find themselves financially chastised by FFP, I cannot see them paying anyone new £40k a week, unless they are currently in the Real Madrid first team.

40k is only what the internet darlings have labelled as, he may be on less.
You never know he might have started on 40k and had it cut down after multiple relegation clauses.
Or he might even be willing to take a paycut.

People are flocking there from all over the world, some to take their stadium tour, some just so they can see the grass or stand where Brian Clough once stood. Massive club you see. They won the European Cup.
