McCann and Duff sign new deals

Last updated : 16 December 2004 By Martin Holmes
The two Northern Irish players have been virtually ever present this season, and are both important members of the Robins' squad.

There had been rumours about McCann joing Mike Duff and ex-Cheltenham boss Steve Cotterill at Burnley, which Chairman Paul Baker denied, and McCann's new deal will eradicate any worries about him leaving the club.

Manager John Ward said that their decisions to stay have re-inforced his long term team-building plans.
