Chris Turner returns to Sligo
Published: November 11, 2009
With 12 league goals to his name and a place on the PFAI Team of the Year, Turner was one of the success stories of Sean Connor's reign at Oriel Park, but becomes the second player to depart the Lilywhites since Connor's resignation after news of Mickey Collins' exit.
Turner previously starred for the Cup finalists between January 2006 and July 2007, before following Connor, who signed him three times, to Dalymount Park for a spell with Bohemians. Still only 22 years of age, Turner will be ineligible for the FAI Cup final.

His first memory of the drama of domestic football was Vinny Arkins, then of Shamrock Rovers, on the receiving end of banter about his long, blond hairdo which was in need of a trim, while his favourite player of all time is Derry City's Liam Coyle.
