If he had a blank chequebook then Fitzsimons wouldn’t have gone
Nobody has forgotten the financial constraints the club has. All people were saying “me included” was that there were experienced GK who are showcasing themselves at the performance centre for out of contract players and doubting they would want a lot due to just being happy to be back in football.
No doubt they would have wanted more than Watson and York, but that’s down to Butler to spread the money out and spend his budget wisely.
If you’re that skint you have to sign Watson on a non fee loan instead of signing an out of contract GK wanting modest wages, then you’ve clearly not used the money correctly.
Nobody was ever expecting us to go out and sign a league proven GK.
