Johnson Joins The Lilywhites Preston North End have signed striker Eddie Johnson on loan from Fulham until the end of the season. Johnson is the third forward to join Preston under Phil Brown after the club were able to secure the services of the American international from the Cottagers, who paid £3million to acquire his services from Kansas City Wizards. http://www.pnefc.net/page/NewsDetail/0,,10362~2281461,00.html
Re: Eddie Johnson back at Fulham--guess who got some PT? the Gardening man with a headset. excellent for the GAM
Re: Eddie Johnson back at Fulham--guess who got some PT? It's good that our strikers are going out and getting playing time.
Re: Eddie Johnson back at Fulham--guess who got some PT? It'll be interesting to see what he can do in the Championship the 2nd time around. He looks a better player and will be more prepared than when he joined Cardiff City.
Re: Eddie Johnson back at Fulham--guess who got some PT? Magic Johnson is eligible to play tomorrow but I'm pretty sure he will start on the bench and come on for the last ten/fifteen minutes as an impact sub. He will need the rest of the week to settle into the squad and understand how the gaffer wants to use him. As a PNE fan, I am happy with the signing. He has raw pace which we have lacked for ages.
Re: Eddie Johnson back at Fulham--guess who got some PT? Eddie Johnson: Can't spell pine without PNE!
Re: Preston to Duty - EJ goes on loan to PNE looks like they already went to Cardiff this year, would have loved to see him go back.
Re: Preston to Duty - EJ goes on loan to PNE This is the most important half-season for Eddie's career since his KC stint. At least, financially. As long as he doesn't end up on the north end of the bench.
Re: Eddie Johnson back at Fulham--guess who got some PT? North End & EJ heading South? EJ moves a division down to relegation battlers in hopes of PT.
Re: Preston to Duty - EJ goes on loan to PNE This is true. I feel more confident in EJ this time around. Cardiff had some real quality up front when EJ was there.
Re: Preston to Duty - EJ goes on loan to PNE EJ has a huge say in Preston's fate this season. Hes not buried down the bench, he will be knee deep in the plight. I hope hes up for it.
Re: Preston to Duty - EJ goes on loan to PNE What does their current forward situation look like? Who are his competition for PT?
Re: Preston to Duty - EJ goes on loan to PNE Iain Hume, Paul Hayes, Nathan Ellington, Leon Clarke and Chris Brown.
Re: Preston to Duty - EJ goes on loan to PNE And the manager is the same Phil Brown who led Hull City to the Premier League (and back down again)? He did at least help Jozy Altidore's hold-up play during his loan spell with Brown.
