Phil Brown's first permanent signing for the Tigers provided a mixture of the past and the future when Nathan agreed a two-and-half-year deal during the January 2007 Transfer Window. <\/P>

Signed for a nominal fee, Nathan is a product of Derby County's academy system and had progressed to the senior ranks during Phil's period in charge at Pride Park.<\/P>

Born in Derby, he made his senior debut at Preston North End at the age of 16 on 1 November 2003 and went on to make a total of ten appearances for the Rams.<\/P>

Following a 12-game loan at Notts County in 2005-06, Nathan had spent this season on loan at League One side Bradford City where he played alongside fellow Tiger Dean Windass.<\/P>

He made a total of 33 appearances for the West Yorkshire Bantams.<\/P>

As a mark of his undoubted potential, Nathan has represented England at all levels from Under-16 to Under-20.<\/P>

It's Nathan's potential and versatility that caught the eye of his former and now current boss, as Phil told : "He's a very intelligent, aggressive and combative midfield player who found himself more of a utility player in the Under 18's and Under 19's because he could play at right-back as well as in the centre or right side of midfield."<\/P>

"I like his attitude towards hard work, tackling and his commitment towards the defensive side of the game but he can also play a bit as well.<\/P>

"Signing Nathan is a long-term investment to enhance the current stock of the squad in this season's survival campaign but he is also one for the future."<\/P><\/A>","FD1933E1882D5E7A216F21827D2B22B4":"","E40B4988E6F21D3C":"18381","26A41B77C025E2F442D11C4E5D31FCE8":"1","1E9A8D352C52FB60DE0D25B327F8FD01":"2014-9-11","95081CC600C137A3ECD07E1A2BAC6047":"999","B628C0FB460378A51A233D645651DF2F":"","70356B8F0C59F6B5":"615","76E5DE99890AB189":"180cm","6438FCEB8DF4FD6202A461D3835934E5":"Bradford AFC,Barnsley,Hull City,Derby County,Notts County","F9622CC2808B37CB":"75kg","033EA04110C4B96A":"1","DF03820F537F8E7C95F8F8605BCB052C":"England","92D102DDE1327A88":"Nathan Doyle","3DD52A7123843A0599BD59EBE6AB4E97":"Bradford AFC","289C5F85E5EE1B609E88960AAED5C65D":"1987-1-12","e_index":7};
