Doyle departed the club after the 2013 season in which the club once again remained in the Premier Division after a 5-4 win in the relegation/promotion play-off game against his previous club, Longford Town.

Daire left Bromsgrove Rovers at the beginning of 2007 and was subsequently signed by Longford Town F.C.. During his 2-year stint at Longford, Doyle played 61 games scoring 2 goals.

Doyle remained at the club upon its return to the First Division and he also captained the side during this period.

In a two-year stint, Doyle appeared for Harriers 27 times and managed to find the back of the net once. Doyle found himself and fans favourite Ian Foster released by the club at the end of the 2002/03 season.

Doyle started his professional career in August 1998 when he moved from top Dublin schoolboy side Cherry Orchard to then Premier League club Coventry City under manager Gordon Strachan where he played in the youth team, which included playing in the FA Youth Cup Final and was also in the reserve team under Trevor Peake, but struggled for first team opportunities.
