Turner Speaks To Official Site

Graham Turner confirmed to Jon Wells that Matt Bailey had been taken on for another month, describing his recent criticism by the fans as unfair. He referred supporters back to games like the Halifax game where the game was generally played in the Bulls half of the pitch, and that with Bailey it's generally being played in the opposing half as he has caused central defenders problems in the air. Turner admits that his goalscoring and work with the ball on the floor can improve, but he adds an extra dimension to the game. Turner felt that it was better at the moment to play Andy Williams with Bailey as he is more similar to Danny Carey-Bertram than Bailey.

Ryan Green will join Simon Travis and Alex Jeannin on the sidelines for the Kidderminster game. Rob Purdie will continue on the right side, with Darren Blewitt coming in on the left.

On the financial side, the completion of the dressing rooms and the impending work on the floodlights were required to meet Football League standards. The Blackfriars End is first on the list to be done, with the Meadow End likely to follow. Turner also noted that he could pay a transfer fee if needed for the right player.
