Yeovil Town have secured the services of striker Oli Johnson from Championship outfit Norwich City on a months loan. 

The twenty three year old arrived at Carrow Road in January 2010 from the then struggling Stockport County, but has failed to make an impact since arriving in Norfolk.

In a two year period at County he scored six times in forty appearances, becoming a fans favourite at Edgeley Park.

An undisclosed fee saw the striker move to Norwich in the January transfer window of 2010, but his chances in the side have been limited, making just six substitute appearances this season.

Terry Skiverton will be hoping the arrival of Johnson will take some of the pressure off of misfiring striker Sam Williams, although the loan is initially only for a month.

In other news, defender Max Ehmer has extended his loan from QPR until the end of the season, after impressing everyone linked with the Glovers in his first month at the club.
