Birmingham City goalkeeper Colin Doyle has signed a one-year extension to his contract at St Andrews.

The Irishman, who has been with the Blues since 2003, had been tipped to leave after his contract had expired this summer.

However, new manager Lee Clark has persuaded the 27-year-old to stay on for at least one more season.

"I love it here at Blues," said Doyle. "It's a great club, a massive club.

"I'm pleased to have re-signed and I'm really looking forward to getting back in on Monday and seeing the lads and the new management staff."

Doyle made 15 appearances for Birmingham last season.
