JOHNSON IN TALKS WITH EVERTON
Crystal Palace and England striker Andy Johnson is locked in talks with Everton officials today after Palace chairman Simon Jordan finally accepted an offer thought to be in the region of £11m from the Merseyside club.
Johnson, 24, flew back last night from Palace’s pre-season tour of Germany to discuss personal terms and carry out a medical, and will be officially unveiled in a press conference at Goodison Park on Friday. Johnson has been subject to intense transfer speculation following Palace’s relegation from the Premiership, and has admitted in interviews that he wanted to leave to pursue his England career. Despite that, Simon Jordan has always strongly refuted that Johnson would be leaving the club, and rejected a reported £6m bid from Everton only last month.
But Evertons persistance has finally paid off, and Jordan was philosophical about the move. “Andy’s given this club great service over the last few seasons, and of course we’re sad and disappointed to see him go, but I understand his reasons” he said. “The Premiership is a big lure for players, and with the World Cup next summer, Andy felt he really needed to be playing at the top level to have any chance of making the squad. And to be fair, he’s absolutely right. It wouldn’t have been right of me to hold back his ambitions, so I wish him well for the future”.
In a parting shot though, Jordan criticised what he called the “media monkeys who made Johnson’s transfer almost inevitable”. “It’s parasites like you (the media) who unsettle players” he said. “Every f*****g day there’s a story from you cockjugglers about someone-or-other making a bid, when the reality is that I had only one enquiry, one offer for Johnson all summer. Well you’ve got what you wanted now havn’t you ? You slags can sell a few papers off the back of this, and Everton have got their bald diving little GIMP who can only score from twelve yards anyway. And just so’s you all know, I’ll be spunking that eleven million quid on a selection of prestige watches, and putting the rest of it aside as I’m saving up to buy the Isle of Wight”.
Reaction from Crystal Palace fans to this breaking news has so far been muted, as it’s known that most of them have great difficulty reading, and many had not yet had the chance to sit down with someone to have it slowly explained to them. When told of the news, one fan queuing for benefits in Croydon replied: “It’s my brothers birthday in four months, and I’m going to Leg-Leg World, I am”.
It is believed he meant “Legoland”.
