We are pleased to announce that defender Craig Watson has signed a contract extension to remain with the club.

28-year-old Watson joined Airdrie from East Fife in May 2021 and has made 78 appearances across his two seasons at the Excelsior.

Showing his versatility by featuring both in the centre of defence and as an attacking full-back, the former Hamilton man has also shown a keen eye for goal, finding the net five times - with a few goal-of-the-season contenders among his haul.

Having missed out on the second leg of the play-off final through suspension following a contentious red card, “Janny” can now look forward to Championship football as he enters his third season with the Diamonds.

Look out for our exclusive DiamondsTV interview with Craig next week… welcome back, Janny!
