One injury does not make an injury prone player. My concern is that we are going to be absolutely ripped off by Cardiff. After a long term injury this has decreased his value and he will probably go for 1-1.5 million, before his injury he was arguably the best CB in the division on form. Considering Matt Mills went for 5 million and Turner is younger than him, if Turner can prove his fitness he would be worth 3-4 million in a years time.
Which is exactly why we shouldn't sell him. If we need to sell a defender it should be Richard Wood, he isn't half the player Turner is and would command a fee of 300-500k maybe?He wont go for over a mill!!!!!!!!
Maybe he did. My memory fails me :thinking about:Didn't he have a injury two years ago?

Good pointMaybe nobody wants him?
It appears that we are now a feeder club for Cardiff
Quite how Cardiff have so much money to spend given their chequered recent financial history is a mystery.
Maybe he did. My memory fails me :thinking about:
Well that is me told and put back in my place thenYeah he was out for half a season in 2008, hamstring injury
Hi,
Cardiff fan in peace here.
Clearly I've come to see if there is any news about Turner/ Parkin.
To explain why we've got money, our main shareholder is Vincent Tan, a malaysian billionaire, who bought in last May so at the moment we are relaively stable.
I have every sympathy with your predicament as we've suffered financial ups and mostly downs - some horrific- for most of my lifetime (and I'm ealry 40's now !) I hope it sorts itself out, but won't apologise for our clubs interest in your players.
We had to sell Jerome, Chopra, Earnshaw, Kavanagh, McAnuff, Gabbidon, Collins, Ramsey (on the cheap), Delaney, Roger Johnson, Loovens and basically any player worth a fee in the past few years -the basis of a reasonable premier league side. So getting 1 or 2 the other way doesn't even go part way to balancing it up, just sorry its from you and I hope you recover as the Ricoh is a great ground to visit, fantastic stadium and easy to get to and relatively friendly.
Turner looked excellent when we played at yours last year and would be a step up on what we've got IMHO.
Anyway best of luck with sorting your boardroom out.
Btw I think you still owe us money on gunnar
Probably. With our track record you'll get in in 2015.
By the way, Parkin hasn't been given much of a crack with us, he's a strange player. Looks like an egg-chaser (rugby player), but is suprisingly good on the deck for his size. Can be a real handful in the air, but often gets in the wrong spot and loses his headers because of that. Always great AGAINST us, but gives away loads of free kicks when he plays FOR us. Prob because most of the refs hate us (as well as most opposing fans)
Exactly what I am saying, if he plays regularly between now and the end of the season he will be worth much more money than now so I don't see how it would make sense to flog him cheaply right now.If Turner is back fit with no long term problems then he should be the last player we should be selling on the cheap. If as fit as prior to injury then he will be a top premiership player worth a lot of money , but short sighted shitsu are only after getting as much back as possible for themselves
We've been inundated in the past few weeks with opening opposing fan posts of " xxxx fan in peace" who all seem unusually eloquent and respectful. I know I'm an old cynic but can you see IP addresses Nick? I feel someone is multi-accounting and laughing at us. Perhaps I'm just paranoid. Well I am paranoid, but perhaps even more so than I had imagined. Anyhow if your serious Lawnmower, thanks and good luck cause we're fucked. Proper fucked!
