Biography

Born in South Shields, Tyne and Wear,[1] Turnbull is the twin brother of midfielder Stephen Turnbull.[2]

Club career

Hartlepool United

Turnbull joined the Hartlepool United youth system in 2003 and was a member of the teams enjoying successful Dallas Cup campaigns in 2004 and 2005.[3][4] He began to establish himself in the reserve team over the next couple of years, while still with the youth team.[4] He joined Northern Premier League Premier Division side Gateshead on loan in December 2005, making his debut in a 0–0 home draw with Radcliffe Borough on 17 December 2005.[5][6] He made five appearances before returning to Hartlepool in February 2006.[6]

He was given his first professional contract with Hartlepool on 4 July 2006.[1] He made his first, and only, appearance for Hartlepool's first team after he started in the 3–1 defeat of League One Rotherham United in the Football League Trophy first round on 17 October 2006.[7] He joined Blyth Spartans of the Conference North on a one-month loan on 22 January 2007 and made 12 appearances for the club.[8][9] He was released by Hartlepool in May 2007.[10]

York City

He was signed by Conference Premier club York City on 7 July 2007.[11] A dislocated shoulder picked up in a pre-season friendly against Frickley Athletic in July 2007 resulted in a six-month lay-off with injury.[12][13] His York debut came on 12 January 2008 as a 66th-minute substitute in York's 0–0 draw at home to Grays Athletic in the FA Trophy second round.[14][15]

Gateshead

Having failed to establish himself in the York team under manager Colin Walker,[12] Turnbull rejoined Gateshead on a one-month loan in February 2008 and made his debut against Witton Albion.[16][17] He agreed a permanent contract with Gateshead on 11 March 2008 after he was released by York.[18][19] He scored his first career goal on 1 April 2008 in Gateshead's 2–0 win over Prescot Cables at Valerie Park.[20] Turnbull finished the season with 18 appearances and 1 goal for Gateshead as they achieved promotion to the Conference North via the play-offs.[21] The team achieved a second successive promotion, this time to the Conference Premier, after beating AFC Telford United in the 2009 Conference North play-off Final, with Turnbull finishing the season with 49 appearances and 2 goals.[22] He agreed a new one-year contract with the club in May 2012 to cover the 2012–13 season.[23] Turnbull made his 300th appearance for Gateshead on 21 December 2013 in a 2–4 defeat at Luton Town.[24]

International career

Turnbull was called into the England under-18 squad in September 2004.[25]

Style of play

Turnbull plays as a central midfielder and is comfortable playing with either foot.[8][25] He has been described as fiercely competitive and "is more than capable of getting forward to support the front men and chipping in with his fair share of goals".[25]
