[edit] Career
White has come through the youth ranks with Colchester United, making his first team debut on 24 August 2004 in the Football League Cup against Cheltenham Town. A versatile player, he has played in many positions for the team but is currently settled at Right Back.
He won the Young Player of the Year award for the 2005–06 season, the year that the U's were promoted to the Football League Championship. He made 32 appearance for the U's in the league that season.
Despite being out of the team for much of the 2006–07 season, largely due to the good form of Greg Halford, he was given a vote of confidence by the club when they offered him a new contract in June 2007.[1] White was sent on loan to Stevenage Borough on the 22 November 2007, for one month in order to play some competitive games, his chances having been limited with the U's first team during the first half of the season. The loan spell was a success and on his return he has regularly been selected for the U's.
When Paul Lambert became Colchester's manager during the 2008/09 season, White was replaced as first choice right back by Alan Maybury. As a result, at the start of the 2009/10 season, White was loaned to Essex rivals Southend United, initially for one month.[2] On his return to Colchester he became first choice right back under Aidy Boothroyd.
