Leeds United had been in League One for two seasons before Michael Doyle joined the club on loan. The midfielder joined following the club's play-off semi-final defeat to Millwall and was key cog in the midfield as they finally secured promotion back to the Championship in a dramatic final day victory against Bristol Rovers.
Doyle has revealed how he felt when he first heard a move to Elland Road was on the cards:
"There was a bit of talk for about six months before I want there. I remember watching the playoffs against Millwall when there was a bit of talk about me going there the next season and I just thought, "I’d love to go there,"" Doyle told the official Leeds United podcast.
