GILLINGHAM manager Ronnie Jepson singled out Leon Johnson as one of the stars of Friday's draw at Northampton.

Jepson was delighted with the defender's performance just a week after he scored the winner against Bradford in his 100th game for the Priestfield club.

He said: "I was really proud of people like Leon, who were putting their bodies on the line for the team.
