On the subject of Bennett I honestly feel that if he could get a regular place in the side he would be our best centre half for years

So do I, but Whittaker is the current scapegoat so even when he puts in a decent performance it will not be recognised.
Having watched the match twice it is my opinion that Whitts deserves a bit of credit for what was a very involved performance, both in defense and attack.
This included one vital interception at the right time when Bolton really threatened and a very good goal-bound effort that brought an excellent save form their goalkeeper .
The problem with this scapegoating, and we all have a tendancy to do it occasionally, is that it clouds the judgement somewhat.

I agree that Whittaker (and Martin at CB as well) has been unfairly criticised. Once the 'scapegoat mindset' is in place, any error is exaggerated and any good points largely ignored.

I thought Whittaker had a decent game, should have scored when Redmond cut one back from the bye line. It's so easy to find a scapegoat when the team isnt playing well.
