McCann To Make Late Call On International Duo Magennis & Whyte

Grant McCann says he will make a late decision on what involvement, if any, Josh Magennis and Gavin Whyte will have in Good Friday’s League One fixture at Crewe Alexandra.

The attacking duo were both starters for Northern Ireland in their World Cup qualifier against Bulgaria in Belfast on Wednesday night, with Magennis playing 82 minutes of the 0-0 draw and Whyte just over an hour, and both are now keen to be involved in the Tigers’ trip to the Alexandra Stadium.

“I spoke to both of them after the game on Wednesday night and they’re both very keen to be involved and to come with us for Friday’s game,” said Head Coach McCann.
