If thats the case then there must be another striker coming into City coz malky wouldnt allow Parkin to go without any cover upfront for Rudy now ?

I wish him all the best as well, but he had enough time to prove his worth IMO, but obviously preferred McDonalds to training and keeping the weight off!

Along with his weight and lack of pace though, his first touch was really poor when he was given game time! :ayatollah:

Agreed - though DJ has to shoulder most of the blame for that IMO.

great news. he shouldnt be playing football if im honest as i am better than him!

Cult hero and nothing more in my eyes. He was a make-shift "plan B" last season but at no point was he ever really good enough for us. He's massively overweight and has for the touch of a wrecking ball. Best of luck to him but I'm certainly not going to be gutted. One of DJ's poorer signings

Can we give them Miller as well

Buy one get one free :lol:

If Parky does depart why do we have to take cheap shots at him and make piss taking comments, he didn't play much for us but when he did he put a shift in. He's not the most skillful we all know that, we had enough twinkle toe players last season, players who didn't put a shift in half the time. We traditionally like players who put effort in and sweat for the team, these players aren't neccasarily skillful but they work their tits off as does Parky, if he goes he gets my full respect as player who has a go, I won't be piss taking.

I'd take the Beast over Miller

Re: Jon Parkin arrives for medical at Coventry City

Good luck to the Beast he' s a good player but he didnt get the match time to show what he was made of. Very good player for his height. If he does go good luck at Coventry. Just don't score against us :lol:
