Good to have Locals in Squad says Turner

The Hereford United director Graham Turner has said that it is nice to have a few local players in the squad.

"We've got a couple of youth-team players (Joel Edwards and Tyler Weir) that have been training with us on a regular basis, played the odd game in the reserves, and I think (manager) John (Trewick) and myself are both in agreement that they've got some potential," Turner told BBC Hereford and Worcester.

"If you add to those, Craig Jones and Sam Gwynne, there's four local lads. It's nice to see some local talent coming through and maybe making an impact.

"I've said before we'd love to have a squad of local players but it's not going to work out like that, but it's nice to have one or two lads that are from the area.

"And before they came into us they were Hereford United supporters so it means something to them to be playing for the club."
