When asked if that weighed hard on his shoulders, Tommy Doyle previously stated:
“I don’t see it as pressure because I am so proud of what they have done for this club. It is something they worked so hard for. It is something I have worked so hard for. Both of them, more so my grandad Glyn, have been a part of getting me where I am today.”
