Maurice Doyle (born 17 October 1969) is an English former footballer.
Career
[edit]Doyle began playing football at the age of 9, began playing football for Polygon and then Princess Villa in the Ellesmere Port League. He was given a trial at Crewe Alexandra, where he began his professional career as a trainee, along with Rob Jones and Craig Hignett. He made his senior debut in 1988. He signed for Queens Park Rangers for £80,000 in 1989, where he spent six seasons but failed to become a first-team regular, playing only six times in the league for Rangers. He made his most first team appearances at his next club, Millwall, after a £25,000 move.
After being released by Millwall at the end of the 1997-98 season, he had a trial at Shrewsbury Town but was only offered a month-long contract. Instead, he dropped into non-league with Telford United, where he played until 2000.
Doyle later played for several clubs since in the Welsh Premier League and English non-league. He was later player-manager of Cheshire-based amateur club Castrol Social, winning the Pyke Cup in 2008. Doyle can now be often found playing for Queens Park Rangers in the Football Masters.
