Michael Turner

[Westlad]

Liked his honesty in the post match interview on BBC where he said that the ball had crossed the line for Everton and it was clearly a goal.

And all the numpties in the studio could do was mock him because his manager had said even after video evidence it was inconclusive.

Michael Turner :'I saw it and it crossed the line'
Steve Coppell: 'I'd happily replay the match'
Phil Scolari: 'I don't think [it was a penalty]

Seems to be a them with the west london connected staff

 

[Mr Tree]

tenuous. hull's in the north east, and martin rowlands is a ****

 

[Westlad]

Michael Turner used to play for a West London club (that was the connection)?

Still I'm appreciative of your continued replying to my posts Mr Tree

 

[Mr Tree]

any time
i'm struggling with the "them" though. is it that we're nice guys :angel:
cos John Terry's a ****. Lampard's a ****. Drogba's a ****. QPHa fans are ****s. F*lham fans are ****s. Paul Brooker, he used to play for a West London club, he's a nice guy isn't he?
also, check the other forum, Coppell's "offer" is far from commendable behaviour

 

[taybren]

Well done mate cracking performance against a good arsenal team and winning

he learnt that at brentford

 

[Claire]

Good to see him constantly performing well

 

[Top Cat]

Gutted he scored against Everton

 

[absenteebee]

in my crystal ball i can actually see him getting an england call up for a meaningless friendly by the end of the season. he's better than lescott.

I bet we wouldn't even get a mention either. I can see/hear it now on the Beeb or Sky:
".......and Fabio Capello has given Michael Turner his England debut. The Hull City stopper and former Charlton reserve team captain is having a magnificent season......blah, blah, blah" I'd go balistic if that was the case as it was Brentford who made him the player he is.

On 5Live on Saturday I heard the Brentford connection mentioned two or three times (more than it was with co-commentator Butcher ).

I didn't watch MoTD closely but I vaguley recall hearing the word Brentford on there too last Saturday :shrug:

Didn't listen to or see either but that's good to hear. Maybe we are being recognised after all. Like lots of us I get very sensitive about these things. As for Butcher I'm sure he has it written into some sort of contract that nobody can mention Brentford in his presence for fear of massive embarassment.

Scotland soon to be added to that list of names.

 

[Salford Bee]

On current form he must be in the top few centrebacks in the country. TURNER FOR ENGLAND!

 

[TW1Bee]

Will we get any financial reward if he does make it into the imternational ranks ?
Hope the contract between us and Hull says so or will it all go to Charlton like the other alledged 90% sell on clause.

 

[Salford Bee]

As much as I loved Michael Turner, I'm affraid he looks well out of his depth in the prem.

Time to eat your words I think

"Hull City's Michael Turner must get a sniff of the England squad. Only Rio and Terry are better than him."

TURNER FOR ENGLAND!

 

[SH]

Great quote from today's Telegraph in an article about Hull and their manager Phil Brown: " His players’ resilience, reflected in such totemic centre-backs as Michael Turner and Kamil Zayatte, found its deserved reward..."

England next?

 

[Claire]

I feel proud that he was once a Bee

 

[Edmundo]

Man of the match in the Guardian for the second match against North London opponents in a row.

 

[Markybee]

If it wasn't for Rio & Terry he might get a look in...maybe Fabio will call him up as cover. Spoken to a client who is a ST at Hull and he says they chant "Turner for England" every week

 

[Westlad]

Wonder if he'll becoming to watch bees on his day off this weekend...

 

[Matty D]

Wonder if he'll becoming to watch bees on his day off this weekend...

He watched us from the away end at Huddersfield shortly after he joined Hull.

 

[Edmundo]

We haven't got a game on his day off this weekend.

 

[londondude]

He'll properly watch it on Sky!

 

[GABS]

He'll properly watch it on Sky!

What, as in good and proper lol

 

[tomisabee]

Just scored for Hull.

 

[Salford Bee]

Turner is the best defender in the Premier League on current form. TURNER FOR ENGLAND

 

[macsalisbee]

not sure if any one else saw the article-Dean Windass does a piece in the Mail each Saturday. It makes a refreshing change for a Prem footballer to mention FL opponents. Windass mentioned playing against Turner and the Bees. He would wind Michael up with the verbals and avoid Sodje! Dean went on to say he rated Turner as the best CB in the Championship when asked by his Hull chairman and that MT is a cool customer when he has kept 'stars' out of the game. I hope he gets called into squads for England as he seems to have had a great start.

 

[FlyBee]

How long does our sell on clause last??

 

[Top Cat]

Just scored for Hull.

Funnily enough a header from a corner.

We should try that

Yeah it was a good article. Sodje was/is quicker than Turner which probably made it harder for Windass to deal with the Nigerian Ninja. Sodje and Turner quality central defensive partnership.

....................pleased for him----Top Man........................

Only Rio is better at the moment. Capello should take note...

[Claire]

He just gets beter and better

 

[hanworthbee]

do we have a clause where we get money if he makes the england squad?

 

[Jimbee]

Only when he gets his 50th cap on the proviso that Paul Smith is also in the side.

 

[Wee Dave]

TURNER FOR ENGLAND

I think this is quite likely soon.

 

[Simon C]

I think this is quite likely soon.

Especially with the friendlies coming up. IMO only Rio and Terry have been up to standard at centre back for England recently and the deputy centre back role is up for grabs with Carragher retired from international football.

 

[2826 claire]

In the Metro this morning, with photo and everything. Hull midfielder, Dean Marney, is backing Turner for an England call up.

Phil Brown was doing it at the weekend too.

 

[Claire]

I might actually watch an England friendly if Turner is in the side.

He was in the team of the week in The Sun yesterday.

He's playing it down now. http://www.hullcityafc.premiumtv.co.uk/page/NewsDetail/0,,10338~1428415,00.html

Seems to be playing down Turners' form...Might be worried about interest from other clubs...

 

[Matty D]

"Aye, he didn’t cause us any trouble"

He's turned northern

Not THE Dean Marney, well, all bets are off....might as well start preparing for a world cup squad suit and kit bag now Michael........whats his inside leg ? uppy:

 

[1_J_TABB]

He's got everything you want from a centre back apart from a slight lack of pace but his tackling makes up for that. Injury-free too and that adds up to a long spell in the game. Let's hope he goes for silly money.

The Mirror today says that Man City are lining up a £6 million pound offer for Turner.

£12m and you have a deal

What's the sell-on clause?
