Johnson is on a part time contract so will essentially be on peanuts. York has done us a favour with recalling Watson. Mahady again played very well and he just happens to have way better distribution and is at least as good or if not a marginally better shot stopper.
This you can chalk down to a happy accident. Down the line we need a solid, stable perm keeper, but if we get Mahady on loan for the rest of the season come January I would be more than happy.
I would rather we took him on a longer loan not too further down the line because if we keep extending month on month, it wouldn’t stop a club simply coming in and taking him on a more perm loan.
York City must think they have been clever by recalling Watson, but have ended up not only saving us money on wages, but have strengthened us. Huge thanks to York City.
