Don't forget, Dave, he's not very good, genius manager Martin didn't rate him.

The club and Martin handled him appallingly last season. Should have left him at Plymouth all season and increased his value if they weren't going to play him after recalling him.

He was here for almost a month after Duff was appointed, so maybe Duff didn't rate him either, but I wouldn't be surprised if Whittaker made it clear to the club that he wanted out no matter what Duff thought of him.

That's exactly what happened, Duff talked about it in an interview.

I could understand the club recalling him if there was an intent to make use of him from the management who had expressed the desire to bring him back or if there had been a change in management to prompt such a change of thinking.

Instead the club tried to cash in on him mid season, it backfired and RM's appalling man management skills basically meant that MD was never going to have a chance of getting any tune out of Whittaker outside of "Bye bye bye"
