" Cardiff City are pleased to confirm the signing of Eoin Doyle from Chesterfield for an undisclosed fee "

Tuesday 2nd Feb 2015

Highly-rated Irish striker completed Bluebirds switch

Cardiff City Football Club is pleased to confirm the signing of Eoin Doyle from Chesterfield.

The 26 year old has joined the Bluebirds in a deal that will keep him at Cardiff City Stadium until the summer of 2018.

With 25 League & Cup goals to his name in just 33 Chesterfield appearances this season, forward Eoin will link up with Russell Slade’s squad on Tuesday. He is expected to be in contention for Saturday’s trip to Sheffield Wednesday, subject to international clearance.

Speaking exclusively to Cardiff City Player on Monday evening, Eoin spoke of his hunger to join Cardiff City and the busy day that led to his arrival in South Wales.

“When I heard about Cardiff’s interest this morning, I couldn’t ignore it,” said Eoin. “It was then a case of getting in the car and getting down here as quickly as I could. I’m really looking forward to getting going now and the challenge ahead.

“Now it’s about getting into the team – we’ve a lot of good strikers at the Club already. Then it’ll be a case of contributing as much as I can and scoring a few goals to help us up the League.”

The Bluebirds take on Sheffield Wednesday at Hillsborough on Saturday, and the new City striker is eyeing that one as a chance to get off to a great start.

“I’ll be in for training on Tuesday morning and then it’ll be about getting to know the lads and working hard. I hope to be involved at the weekend and I know we’ll be going there for the three points.”

Obviously knows how to find the back of the net but my fear continues to be that our midfield doesn't create enough chances for whoever we have up front (plus our manager just doesn't fit our club and is probably out of his depth).

Exactly, is he going to do well with a long ball?

I agree

Let's be positive, he's a natural goalscorer

I just asked a Chesterfield fan his opinion on Boyle, Is he any good?

Yes mate but youve got to bear in mind level hes been playing at, and the step up hes got to make, whos your regular strikers whats his chances of getting a start with you ??

Quite right. EVERY player signing for us should be given a fair chance.
Unfortunately we've got a lot of fans who write players off before they have seen them kick a ball.

Hudson and Marshall were 2.

It's not easy for Strikers here, more proven goal scorers have failed, Macheda, Le Fondre and Maynard have done bugger all, time will tell but this will be a step up for him, and he won't get much service......

Spot on, it's a good signing but it's no good if our midfielders aren't creating any chances.

Why not give Joe Mason a chance? We need a midfielder more than another striker.

Excellent signing at a time when the club needs a boost.

Play Kenwyne and Doyle until it clicks. However long it takes.
