Hereford goalkeeper Paul White has been interviewed by 'Breakthrough Football'
A couple of the questions were about Hereford.
Who has been your favourite manager to play for throughout your career so far and why?
"Would
probably have to say my current gaffer at Hereford, Josh Gowling. We
have an open and honest relationship with no sugar coating anything
which I love, you always know where you stand and can speak about
anything. The environment that we have created at the club is based
around hard work and meticulous preparation which I enjoy. The style of
football that we want to play, and the core values of the team are in
line with how I see the game."
What persuaded you to sign for Hereford in the first place?
"I
had a chance to go on loan to Hereford many years ago from Forest Green
when Hereford were making their way back up the leagues which I turned
down and I regretted it. When given the chance again I didn’t want to
make that mistake again. The club doesn’t need selling, brilliant
stadium, ambitious, huge fan base and rich in history. It was a no
brainer as reverting to morning training makes a huge difference to me
as I can run my businesses away from football."
Just how good was the feeling of reaching Wembley to play in the FA Trophy final with Hereford?
"Amazing
feeling. It’s every footballers dream to get to Wembley and players
with far greater careers then me will have never been able to get there
so I feel incredibly lucky! Obviously, it’s frustrating as I want to be
out on the pitch, but the lads were amazing and I’m buzzing for the fans
to get this bit of happiness in what has been a tough year for everyone
worldwide."
Finally, what are your ambitions for the new season with Hereford?
"Our
squad motto is “This Year Only” so at the moment all focus is towards
the final in May. I’m out of contract in the summer so once things
settle down, we will sit down with the gaffer, have a chat about my
personal situation and then plan for next season."
