DJ and representatives have been in contact AN/Stoke for months. Not entirely sure if it was ‘agreed’ but as ive posted previously it’s widely anticipated in PNE that he is off

They released Nick Powell didn't they so will effectively replace his wages for what DJ will want for final big contract of his career.

Reads more than DJ was trying elsewhere if you go off what is above. If that was known why bother trying.

Because it's a PR (not that PR the other type of PR) exercise.

Johnson left the minute he was made a scapegoat months back and was thrown under the bus by Lowe. He was never going to stay from that point it seems. Now it's so they can say "we offered him a contract and he chose elsewhere". We could have offered him a contract any time in the last year but chose not too. It's not like we were having to wait and see what division we were in would change the contract

Lucky for us we have a ready made replacement in Woodburn. Very prudent recruitment. Much like Ledson for Pearson and Lindsay for Davies.
 
What's the chances of Johnson doing preseason with Stoke but not officially signing until 1st August so we have to pay his wage for July. Wouldn't cost Johnson anything but it'd rub Ridsdale and Lowe's face in it and that approx £80,000 would dent quite a big hole in our prem loan fund.

If the club are paying his wages surely they say what he can do until 31 July?

I think they only have to pay that extra month if they don't offer a contract extension. As it's the players choice to leave I don't think we're on the hook for that.
