Now, he has urged Clarke and Arthur to balance his workload.

“I’m going to have to continue to talk to Michael and Mickey Arthur and just try and balance my workload as much as I possibly can because what happened over the last little while didn’t exactly work, so I’m just going to have to stay on top of things a little bit more, I think,” said Watson.

Watson said he doesn’t wants to repeat the mistakes he made last time.

“A few mistakes that I did make throughout that period of time [I] certainly won’t be making them again because I wouldn’t really like to be out for another three months again because it’s very frustrating,” he said. (ANI)
