Ex Wycombe player (made over 100 appearances). Didn't realise he plays for Scotland (watching him now on TV). Didn't realise he was also captain of Norwich. No wonder he was one of our better players.
russels one of the generation that really kicked on, alongside mike Williamson and roger Johnson (who now seems to have disappeared, but for while was being touted for an England call up)
I wondered what happened to Johnson, last i heard was he was at West Ham last season on loan but has disappeared.
please log in to view this image On 11 July 2011, Birmingham accepted a bid from Premier League club Wolverhampton Wanderers for Johnson. Two days later, Johnson signed a four-year contract with Wolves. The fee was officially undisclosed, and the club claimed that reports of a £7m fee were inaccurate; the Wolverhampton-based Express & Star newspaper reported that the club had paid "a flat fee with no add-ons" of "just over £4m". Johnson was almost immediately handed the captaincy of Wolves by Mick McCarthy shortly before the start of the new season, relieving former captain Karl Henry of his duties. The season proved problematic for Johnson and his new team though and McCarthy was sacked in February 2012, following which Johnson said the players had let the manager down. After assistant manager Terry Connor was promoted to fill the vacancy, Johnson found himself out of favour and he featured in only two further matches. During March 2012 he was disciplined by the club after turning up for training under the influence of alcohol, and later the same month, he had an on-field dispute with teammate Wayne Hennessey. With the club relegated back to the Championship, new manager StÃ¥le Solbakken brought Johnson back into the team. Solbakken was however dismissed in January 2013, and although Johnson retained his place in the team, once again the club were relegated, meaning Johnson had now been relegated in each of the last three seasons. With the arrival of Kenny Jackett as Wolves manager, it was announced in June 2013 that Johnson was available for transfer and he was not issued with a squad number. No sale took place during the summer transfer window, and on 16 September, Johnson joined Championship club Sheffield Wednesday on loan for three months. He made 17 loan appearances before the deal expired, but Sheffield Wednesday caretaker manager Stuart Gray confirmed that he was attempting to extend the loan agreement. On 6 January 2014 he joined Premier League club West Ham United on loan for the remainder of the 2013–14 season. Johnson played six games in all competitions for West Ham, his first coming on 8 January 2014 in a 6-0 away defeat to Manchester City in a semi-final of the League Cup. Like you say,; disappeared but still on Wolves books under contract it would seem. View attachment 34197
