Heard today that Turner is still our player and there is no clause in his contract. Shams want to sign him and we are looking for 20 k for him but they don't want to stump up the cash. Wether its true or not I don't know but it seems to be comin from a good source so make of it what you like i suppose.
Word around town today that Turner has gone
Turner gone alright accordin to a shams fan I hace contact wit signed yesterday.good ridance to him.
Hope this spurs d lads on for the season.The way I see it Raf and Turners exit to "win medals" basically says to their former team mates ye arent good enough to win anything, arent good enough players to win d league so I'm off.
**** them
Stall the digger, Alan. If Turner is gone to Shams it's for the same reason that Raf went to Bohs - money. If he was made an offer that we couldn't/wouldn't match, well that's that. Not good riddance though as he is the best midfield player in the country. Mind you, it's odd that he has only been able to show that when playing for Humpty
Is Turner gone any word from the club?
AFAIK, Turner has a couple of days off. I presume this would go for the whole team. Would explain him "leaving"
Still an awful lot of ifs in this story, but if he is gone, then I'd be inclined to agree with Alan, as it would seem that despite signing a contract with Rovers Turner had little interest in giving 100%. I somehow doubt he was going to starve on what Rovers were paying him.
Best midfielder in the country? Potentially, but if a lad is on the field for you, but constantly wondering how to squeeze out an extra few bob by moving elsewhere, he's not worth the hassle.
Maybe I'm wrong, but I've always thought that the "professional" in the description "professional footballer" should mean a bit more than simply "getting a full-time wage". This kind of messing wouldn't reflect well on him.
Maybe it's all a false alarm, but if he's gone under these circumstances, good riddance, and better to be shot of him now.
"Even if the wind stops to blow
Even if the sea ceases to flow
Even if the sun ceases to rise
The name of Sligo Rovers will shine and shine forever like the morning star glittering in the sky."
if hes so good why did bohs pay up his contract and get shot of him
IF Turner has signed for those lot, does it mean he owes us back his signing on fee and any wages/ Do Shams owe us compensation?
Perhaps there are developments today that I am not aware of, but this is getting ridiculous ......... he is training, no he is gone to Shams, will he, wont he. The sooner it is sorted we can move on one way or the other. If he goes then perhaps hopefully we can focus on signing some player who may want to genuinely play for this pretty decent club of ours before it is too late. He is a good player, no doubt about it, but personally I am getting a bit pi**ed off with his attitude.
dont know how true this is but i heard turner is being paid 200 less than contract he agreed. the board are playing up again and not willing to pay the original contract he was offered. also heard cook offered his resignation over it. again all i can say is only a rumour and prob all bull but its what is going around rumour wise..... hopefully is sh1t talk
