Johnson Not Joining Palace

[furlong29]

Doubt he will play now anyway barring injuries as with the two new midfielders will prob be a one up top job

[nuffieldranger]

From there forum: Parish on HOL has said the everything was done but QPR pulled out, nothing to do with getting there too late. Maybe 20 minutes earlier would of allowed us to up the bid.

So he did an Odemwengie ;)

maybe we pulled the plug because a target we where after fell through maybe we where more prepared to le him go than some may think ! like I said before best way to deal with this is support him ie like we have Barton and see how things develop

With still only 2.5 recognised strikers at the club we can't afford to turn on him now.

[MYU]

SSN just said we upped the price and Palace said "No".

[Buffalo]

Jeez. There are some drama queens about.

At the end of the day, the players are assets. If you trade on deadline day you need those assets in the right place to do deals or it's too late. I really doubt that AJ went down to Selhurst Park to knock on the door and ask for a move. More likely it was part of a larger deal, sanctioned by us and when other things didn't happen, we pulled out.

Might be an idea to cut the guy a break while he is performing so well for us (and other options are limited) or at least try to find out the facts before turning on him completely.

this............! amusing seeing the fickle kids here chucking their toys about AJ all of a sudden.....you know who you are!!!

[Stanley]

...apparently we hiked the price at the last minute when we couldn't get a replacement and Palace wouldn't agree.

[Brightsparx]

Left hiding in the back of the car haha what a tool. We hiked the price apparently so must have a loan lined up

[theblackmafia.]

Hopefully we'll only play Austin up top so AJ and BZ will be subs only

This. Remember how pleased we were when the deal collapsed. He's still an R. And he's a R with something to prove.

So AJ wanted a return to PL football with the club where he is a legend.........

This. He is a legend there believe me!

reading the palace forums some was ready to cry if he joined.

[WeAreQPR12]

gets my full backing, not going to take it personal like most. He is still our top scorer and he puts in a shift that is more than enough for me.
