Denaby’s Captures: Talk Of Transfers.

One of the most popular players in the district is Leslie Turner, the 19-year-old half of Conisboro’s Mexboro’ Association League team.

Before joining Conisboro’ he played at Warmsworth and had a short spell with Denaby United. It was while with Denaby that he had to retire from the game for a time owing to illness.

When he recovered he joined Conisboro.’ He has been watched this season by higher class (picture)clubs and he is shortly to have him chance with a First Division club. The “scouts” are no doubt impressed by his judgment and stamina. Every time he turns out he appears to be going stronger.
