Johnson ready for Terriers battle

18 August 2010 15:00
Peterborough boss Gary Johnson has tipped Huddersfield to challenge for promotion ahead of this weekend`s clash between the two clubs at London Road. The Terriers, like Johnson`s men, are among the favourites to secure a top-two finish in League One. And Johnson told Peterborough`s official website: "I believe Huddersfield will be there or thereabouts at the end of the season, so this game already takes on an extra importance. "They have made some very good signings and have the experience of coming so close to promotion last term, so I expect an entertaining game." Posh will be looking to bounce back from a chastening 5-1 defeat at Bournemouth in their last outing. Johnson added: "We owe it to our supporters to put in a good performance. I want to apologise to all those who made the trip to Bournemouth at the weekend, our display was poor and we need to put it right."
