QuoteEven if he is out of contract Sligo Rovers would be entitled to a fee as he is under 24.Originally Posted by red arrow
any idea what english clubs atre interested in chris. we know he is on a free at end of season and the fact that rovers have financial difficulities would it be possible that they would get a fee for him if sold in july. club is caught between a rock and a hard place because money is badly needed but we would also be letting our best player go. if cookie could bring in some decent players in july and we were able to keep chris and go on a cup run that could turn things around. but these are all if's. also club has had a bad run on injuries. its important that we keep supporting the club. there are tickets available for a draw on june 24th at e10 each get the word out buy them. there is also a golf classic being run in rosses point june 21st cost E200 for team of 4. anybody out there interested. prizes to the value of e4000.00.
contact frank beirne 086 1657515. even if you cant play golf why not get 4 togeather @ E50 each. now thats what i call supporting sligo rovers when in crisis.
Even if he is out of contract Sligo Rovers would be entitled to a fee as he is under 24.
I dont believe that is the case if he isnt sold before his contract expires.
It definitely is- it happened to us when Alan Cawley signed for Shels. The only provision is that he is offered a contract worth the same amount as his previous one.
gary dicker sold to stockport for £40,000 today. have only seen dicker play 3-4 times but chrissy has to be worth at least twice whatever he's worth

Chris Turners contract should be tied up. give him a deal worthy of his calibre and make an effort to keep him. i'd release 3 players if it meant keeping turner. but alas this wont happen and chris turner will move for nothing. prob to bohs or if not to the UK. He is simply a class act !! worth paying in just to see him play whatever the result
Maybe we are focusing on personalities here but i think if turner wont sign an extension for the club and if they can get some decent money for turner in the window i would sell - turner occasionally has a poor game an u dont see the villification from forum users like other players get (quality aside). Rovers will be relegation material if we keep things as they are and there doesnt seem to be any money in the kitty so something has to give for the good of the club - we have sold better players in the past!
In my opinion, Turner has only really started to make his mark this season. Certainly last season he was hot & cold. Whether that has anything to do with the change in management or increased responsibility, but this season he has really looked top class.
After his second goal vs Cork, as he celebrated, I could have sworn he was just about to kiss the badge, but thought twice, and dived on the gorund instead. Maybe, I read to much into these things, but I suspect Chris won't be with us next season at the very least.
i think any under performance last season was due to the manager's tactics(hoof it up to mansaram and take it from there). he barely got to touch the ball. if we get to an opportunity to put out a full strength team soon, i'd imagine he'll play eve better
i watched that cork goal again there and he just pats the crest but before that he pushed manson out of his way so he could run over to show the main stand what he was doing.

Fill me in?!?! Or give us a link....
From BBC Sport
Northern Ireland's Under-21 team earned a 1-0 win in their opening European Championship qualifier in Moldova.
Derby defender Chris Turner was the hero for Roy Millar's side after he turned in David Buchanan's left-wing cross in the third minute.
Northern Ireland goalkeeper Jonathan Tuffey produced three fine saves before half-time to keep his team ahead.
Moldova had most of the second-half possession but without really threatening to score.
Northern Ireland manager Roy Millar expressed delight with his side's performance after the game.
"I felt we won comfortably in the end. It was an excellent defensive performance especially after we scored," he said.
The Northern Ireland Under-21s take on Finland in August followed by games against Germany and Luxembourg in September.
Or maybe it's a sign that he's going back to the new Premiership team.
Life without Rovers, it makes no sense...it's a heartache...nothing but a fools game. S.R.F.C.
I hear Turner has left the club, he won,t be playing against Shams & its a 50/50 call for him between Bohemians & Burnely F.C. Was chatting to Foyser in town today said Rovers were getting £30k for him. I wish him luck just hope rovers have a sell on clause agreed with either club...
**** that if true. £30k, he's worth much more than that.

he's gone to bohs and talk of faz goin with him
Turner signed a pre-contract with Bohs yesterday evening, he will sign for them at the end of the season, but my sources tell me that Cook is prepared to let him play in the Reserves and he wont be playing him in the first team again this season! Rovers will get €15k and another €15k when he plays a certain amount of games! - this is fact!
Thats frigging peanuts but what do you expect. If he is signing for Bohs, why not in the July transfer window? They are hardly stupid enough to be paying wages when he is in the under twenty ones till the end of season.
just hope faz dosnt go with him.
If we get any reasonable sort of money for Faz at all then I say we should sell.
