Torpey in his pomp would have eaten Whitehall for breakfast, Whitehall is more of a wind up merchant than a target man IMO but he gets goals so I guess he is doing his job, just don’t like the way he goes about it.
I agree with you (other than the bit about the way he goes about things) but there’s something vaguely ridiculous about Whitehall which makes him much more likeable than Torpey somehow…
