You could tell this was coming based off the way Gardner has handled certain things that have come out to the public. Like when he had a dispute with Lowrie (I think it was) over his salary to coach reserves (cant remember which team exactly) where Lowrie wanted more money but because of Gardner's own performance targets he knew the budgets he had to work in so he was more then fine with politely declining the raise request. I'm sure results would have been rewarded but this was not the case unfortunately for Todd.
