From what I can gather O'Neill won't sign him unless it's on a free as he wasn't impressed with being turned down in the first place.

Why has Turner changed his mind?

Almost signed him last season and I've head he was invited to pre season training this season

No idea. Obviously not happy with something in the Sligo deal or possibly a personal clash with someone down there, he doesn't come across as the easiest fella to get along with.

He's a quality footballer but I think he's a big risk for any club to sign, he can look very unfit and disinterested at times, I don't see him lasting in a highly disciplined setup, which probably explains his man love for Sean Connor's half baked ways.

I take it he didn't win the contract with Inter then. Kind of ruins the programme.:(

I heard he did win, but opted sign for Rovers on a years loan from Inter due to homesickness!

He was awful for us. We signed him as a left back because Hedderman was so bad, but Kearney couldn't even displace him. Played a bit in midfield, but was cat.

As for Cummins, I don't want to get my hopes too high, but it would be the making of our season if we keep him.

Thats looks like bad form on Turners behalf, I am aware that there was issues with the contract but Sligo were paying him so it will be interesting to see how this fares out.

Yeah he is a centre midfielder really - one of those players that finds it really hard to play anywhere else

Short and to the point!!:D

Seriously though I'd say he'll do a decent enough job for Dundalk if he gets an extended run in the team.

do ya reckon the sligo-rovers discussion on here made him join homeless rovers, probably thought he joined the wrong rovers ;)
