Sean Doyle receives his Player of the Month Award

Tue 8th October 2024 | League Awards | By Martin Fallon

FC Isle of Man Forward Sean Doyle was recently re-presented with his First Division South Player of the Month award winner for July/August 2024.

Awards are usually presented at home matches, but due to logisitical issues, Sean was presented with his award at their away game at West Didsbury & Chorlton. The award has now been re-presented to Sean at a recent home game by the Ravens Secretary Andy Varnom so that supporters of the island team could show their appreciation to him.

Sean burst onto the scene when Isle of Man came into the league in 2021/22, scoring 41 goals in his first season to help fire the island side to a first time promotion via the Play-Off's. However he struggled with a serious injury over the last two years and he is now back fully fit as the club and on-field captain.

Whilst results have been mixed so far this season Sean has led by example both on and off the pitch. He came off the bench at Irlam, scoring his side''s third goal in a tight game to give them a 3-1 win. However it was the middle four games of the month in which he really stood out, being awarded Man of the Match by the Ravens opponents in all four games.

First was a bonkers game at FC St Helens where Sean scored a hat-trick despite his side losing 5-4. The next match at Longridge Town saw him score a brace in a 2-1 victory, before a 2-1 loss at Charnock despite him picking up that MoM award. The fourth game in the sequence saw him score his seventh goal of the month in a 2-1 loss at Stockport Town.

So eight appearances, seven goals with four Man of the Match wins.

Congratulations to Sean once again on his Award!
