He is ambitious and wants to take the club forward. He wants to take Oldham up the league and I was impressed by his vision for the club." For his part, Johnson said: "He has done very well in Scotland and Kilmarnock wanted him to stay and I am delighted to have signed a player of his pedigree and talent. I am sure he will do very well for us."
