"Around Christmas, I had some pain in my knee that never went away. After a period of rest, I went for a scan and unfortunately there was another damage to the knee."
Mawson later added: "It's devastating, but that's the way of life. I was almost in this situation in the summer, and I didn't love the game anymore. I think if I retired at that time, I wouldn't even think about it. Don’t want to watch football anymore. Still, coming back here has made me fall back in love with it. It reminds me of when I first joined as a kid and loved what I did.”
"I've done what I wanted to achieve and to walk away with a win and a clean sheet in my last game is a good way to end it."
"I knew this day would come - just sooner than I hoped. Yet there are countless worse things happening in the world, and it makes you realize that at the end of the day, it's just a job. I love it, it's been a hell of a stretch Such a journey. I have dedicated my life to it and I will be forever grateful to all those who helped make it happen."
