Jimmy Turner is hoping not to miss too much pre-season training

AFC Telford United defender Jimmy Turner is battling to get himself fit in time for pre-season training after recovering from a minor operation.

Turner had clean-up operations last week on the knee and ankle injuries he picked up last season.

Telford assistant manager Larry Chambers said: "The surgeon is happy. There's no serious damage.

"The only problem we've got now is that we start training on 29 June which only gives Jimmy another 10 days."

Chambers added: "We're hoping he's ok but he might miss the first couple of sessions."
