Turner's future

[Terry]

Got a text froma shams fan yesterday saying he was up but hadnt signed (said if he had isgned he'd know) today got another text saying he was up along with 3 Cork players and signed.Said Turner said he "didnt undertsnad what he was signing with us" figue that whatever way you want.
So lets wait and see.Maybe we will get a definite Sunday.
Is he here is he there, who knows ,anyway we are set up nicely regardless.

Jus keeping ye informedish

Any word on Russell?

In England on trial with Chesterfield. Bohs are favourites to sign him if he returns although Sean Connor was talking to him over the phone about playing one more season in Galway also.

russell n the showgrounds today

[Rovers1]

like that banner lads.. what game did that make its debut in?

For Sean Connor, in Dalymount '06. Think the Bohs stewards took it off the lad that made it. Might have to make something similiar for Tallaght

[Redie]

I'm very cleary saying he was never a Sigo player.

This can't be news to you....

It most certainly is, I've no involvement with Sligo Rovers F.C. apart from loving them to death.

Anyway reading between the lines of an article in one of our local newspapers today we will not see Turner lining out for us this season. We move on.

[red_away]

I dont understand that with standard players contracts and documented regulations how this sort of debacle could happen?

fack turner!!!

We all agreed here that he was useless anyway.....we got Sir Danny Ventre!!!!

[CF1989]

we got Sir Danny Ventre!!!!

alleluia!!

[bingoballs]

We will see later, but keep telling yourself that.....

Your managers public courting of the player through the press was disgraceful in this whole episode. My contempt for him and shamrock rovers is growing by the minute.

t’s understood midfielder Chris Turner is currently considering his options, with a possible move to a well-respected Dublin team. this is whats wrote in todays sligo weekender !!! when will we get a pre season without some sort of shambles appearing. how a lad apparantely on a 2 year contract can consider his options is beyond me.......

And me can we not just have a ****ing quiet pre season like everyone else. Sign players, release player play a few friendlies is that to much to ****ing ask.

So he's not going to Shams then??

You clearly have misunderstood how contract law works. If the player signed a contract with Sligo Rovers he is bound to it. Talking about about needing to register contracts with the league is bullsh1t of the highest order. This would mean treating footballers differently to other types of workers, which is illegal under European Law. A precedent for this kind of thing was set by the Bosman case.

Now...back in your box

Well, it depends what's in the contract. Sometimes a contract doesn't kick in until registration. Put it this way, if Brittany promises to meet you in The Belfry on Saturday night and her Mammy won't let her out of the house 'cos she thinks your not good enough, would you not be better off looking for Kylie than chasing Brittany.

What happens if Brittany refuses to go to The Belfry?

Any else getting peed off with the whole turner situation , time to move on and focus on other quality new players we have signed.

[MMVIII]

I'll await my judgement till its confirmed he's gone. Extremley poor form but its a job. No loyalties anywhere.

[redbuli]

nothings confirmed yet which is odd, think he will eventually go to Shams though, bit bored of it now ..think Russell would be ideal replacement as well, bring on the new season

[bingoballs]

This is a joke. I just feel like we are being walked over by shams and turner. Our own fault I suppose if his "contract" isnt what it should be but we need a quality central midfielder or it will be another season of mediocrity!

[jamie m]

According to the Champion Turner is in pre-season training with Rovers but Cook is none the wiser as to whether Turner will still be the there at the start of the season. Responding to the speculation about the players future he said the stories are "perhaps not without foundation".

[CF1989]

I think we're better off to f**k him.

keep your feelings to yourself

[red_away]

This thread should be closed and await official confirmation of the situation!

[Kevin L]

For the record, as I said before, Chris Turner has signed a contract with Sligo Rovers and is a Sligo Rovers player.
If there are any further developements, we will let you all know.
