i dont recall anyone displaying any sort of emotional bullcrap against DW. all i remember is people wanting him to stay no matter what, and others saying that they didn't care if (and only if) dav has lost interest in bd cricket. the second group was of the opinion that if he leaves let him - we will pick someone else: as simple and professional as that.
if he hasn't lost interest in bd cricket or isn't leaving, then of course everyone would want him to stay.
there's no bullcrapping here - everyone knows he's done wonders for us.
