i for one am amazed turley is sticking with Us, i was convinced he'd leave at the end of the season for a fourth division club.
is it just me that's surprised? and if not, is it because we've thrown a big bag of cash at him, he's not confident of being able to sign for a higher-level club, new-found inspiration from darren patterson, or he's immensely loyal to Us?
Turley and Quinn sign contract extensions
I would suggest that the two year deal helped. Plus Hodgy will not be here for ever and a long serving goalie will probably be in line to to take over.
I would also suggest that he is also fairly confident of being first choice for the next 2.5 years with our next first choice likely to come from the youth team. (we have another highly rated keeper after Warrell)
Finally, He must have lived in northamptonshire for a long time after being at Cobblers, R&D and then us, he is unlikely to find a club in the area to pay him more and not have to move.

I'm not. He's on a good whack. He's too old to play for a decent league side now."Paul Cooper" wrote:I too am surprised that Turley has signed up. He is undoubtedly one of the best keepers in the Division and it is a good move for the club.
I'm pleased he's signed. Our best player.

I'm pleased Turley's staying. Simply because he's a character. I'd miss his constant shouting at other players (like they notice anyway) and blaming everyone else and his post match interviews. In a season full of lows and even more lows, he makes a mild diversion.
Much improved this season as well. Arguably our best player so far. I hope that doesn't mean he's due a bad patch.

oh don't think i'm not - i'm absolutely delighted! my delight is just slightly overshadowed by my amazement. however it was achieved, i think it's an excellent move by the club, and i'm impressed they managed it."Baboo" wrote:Shouldn't we be rejoicing - he's a bloody good goalie for this level.
Keeping Quinn too ain't a bad move.
