He said he was out of contract with Warrington, believes he has another two years left in him, had eight years at Wigan and wouldn't mind returning.
I wasn't the one who brought up Wigan and I did go out of my way to get him to clarify that his heart was still with Warrington as I could see how his opening statement could have been misunderstood.
I was certainly left with the impression that he would like to end his career with his home town club, which is a bit of an ambition/desire and I think you are splitting hairs a little bit.

Ignore him Gary. Anyone with any intelligence could see what you were trying to achieve on behalf of Paul.

Fair play to Johnson for being honest though, makes a change from players declaring their undying love for a club they couldn't care less about.

...Its your interpretation and wording. Now you call it a bit of an ambition.
It aint splitting hairs.
I agree you didn't bring up Wigan and you did give chance to clarify by reminding him about us playing Wigan and him expressing his heart was with Warrington.
Then when you probed a third time Johnno clambed up, he realised that what he'ed said had been misunderstood. He obviously faced un-scripted questions.
You finished off the interview again about questioning his heart being with Warrington and then again about Wigan having him back.

a player announces he wants to play for one of our biggest rivals?

in my eyes if johnno came off badly from that then its his own fault

Good to see our players taking a step down and playing out their twilight years at one of the smaller clubs.

Doesnt sound good does it, get rid and make room for a younger player

As Knighty said, not 100% committed. To say that he wants to play with a different club whilst apparently playing for a new contract here is, well stupid really. Be careful what you wish for.
