The 29-year-old joined the O&#8217;s in January for the remainder of last season, after a brief spell at Notts County.<\/p>\n<p>Despite joining Orient mid-season, Turley proved to be a key player. Immediately coming into the starting 11, Turley enjoyed a positive period in the side.<\/p>\n<p>Now, with the former Eastleigh player making his move more long-term, this is the right move in the right direction for the club ahead of their forthcoming League Two campaign.<\/p>\n<h2>Experience and Familiarity<\/h2>\n<p>Winning promotion with Orient, Jamie Turley had a defensively sound time for the O&#8217;s. Winning multiple Man of the match awards, Turley is a good signing at this point in time.<\/p>\n<p>A centre-back by trade, the former Newport County man also played as a right-back. He filled in for the injured Sam Ling while Myles Judd was absent, where his performances were met with loads of plaudits.<\/p>\n<p>Displaying versatility last season, this is exactly what the O&#8217;s will require in the forthcoming campaign. As Turley is not unfamiliar with League Two, this is a signing that could prove to be a great bit of business by the East London club.<\/p>\n<h2>EFL Experience<\/h2>\n<p>Now with Jamie Turley putting pen to paper to remain an O&#8217;s player, is this the first of many experienced EFL players to commit to Orient.<\/p>\n<p>The likes of Dean Brill, Josh Coulson and Matt Harrold, who has <a href=\"https:\/\/www.guardian-series.co.uk\/sport\/leytonorient\/17654984.matt-harrold-pens-new-contract-at-leyton-orient\/\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">already agreed a new deal<\/a>, boast tonnes of EFL experience. Additionally, there are also some younger squad players such as James Brophy who have EFL experience and have more to prove.<\/p>\n<p>It will be interesting to see who will be on the O&#8217;s radar during the transfer window. Furthermore, what EFL experience their potential signings have as experience at this level of football can be the difference maker.<\/p>\n<p>Main Photo<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp; <a id=\"30z3ADRPQTlVXpJqgS81hw\" class=\"gie-single\" href=\"http:\/\/www.gettyimages.co.uk\/detail\/1150322621\" target=\"_blank\" style=\"color:#a7a7a7;text-decoration:none;font-weight:normal !important;border:none;display:inline-block;\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Embed from Getty Images<\/a><script>window.gie=window.gie||function(c){(gie.q=gie.q||[]).push(c)};gie(function(){gie.widgets.load({id:'30z3ADRPQTlVXpJqgS81hw',sig:'pgnbSnFoSJ7Xj3zU7O7QT0tRLt7qa1EYk5Fs81UzxhM=',w:'594px',h:'392px',items:'1150322621',caption: true ,tld:'co.uk',is360: false })});<\/script><script src='\/\/embed-cdn.gettyimages.com\/widgets.js' charset='utf-8' async><\/script><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Jamie Turley has signed a two-year contract at Leyton Orient.
