To be honest, both White and Booker have been involved in times that we exceeded our potential. (Not referring to this particular thread) I do find thiss witch hunt against both men to be slightly....obtuse? We have been relatively successful during the 00's and both have been quite prominent. Would any manager worth his salt accept a dire backroom staff? If their job depended on it?
I don't have a major gripe against either but would be very pissed off if one of the reasons for gannon saying no was an insistence to keep him and White on at the expense of his preferred back up team!
