He's a big player for sure. So big they named a cake after him!

Well let me know when the bidding stops at 10 million!

Well this is my big fear. that along with the potential that he could be a replacement for Juke! :facepalm:

I'm sure we'll all back him once he pulls a Sky Blue shirt over his head. that's if he can get it over his head, but I think most of us are disappointed because he isn't the type of player we are really crying out for.

Yes, every 4.22 games. i can't wait!

If it means players are having to go out of the club to fund them are we? Just wondering. Broady is going to say that he kept his word and brought players in, but it is no good if we already have a paper thin squad and all we are doing is replacing good players with cheaper alternatives is...

Poor first touch, not fit enough and not a good work ethic. He will fit in just fine!!

He may be better than ROD and Platt but what does that mean? Pretty much everyone doesn't rate ROD or Platt so that's hardly a great endorsement is it.

Quite clinical when he puts his chances away? Can't have been getting many chances then at a goal every 4.22 games. :facepalm:

Parkin's record since moving up to a higher level in 2007 at Hull is 50 goals in 211 appearances. That gives an average of one goal every 4.22 games. that's telling us we are going to get about 10 goals a season out of him maximum.

Plus he has scored one goal in 12 appearances. Now that is mouthwatering for a team like ours that is goal shy.

I agree that he is not the sort of player we need here or one that would fit in with playing the ball on the deck and the style AT plays. Don't know when this club will get it in their thick heads that we desperately and I mean desperately need a player with PACE!!!

Well either they lied or the council lied about that meeting that didn't take place.

Have rang this number shown a few times today just to check it out and it either just rings and rings and rings or if you get through to the voice mail box is says it is full and not taking anymore calls, which tells you that probably people simply didn't know about the vacancies. Where did...

I think we may well try to put a few bids in. Would expect them to be derisory though.

Well let's see. Maybe, just maybe we will bring in a couple of players. Wouldn't put any money on it though. Not even a pound.

Possibly meaning we will fail in signing any players, whilst existing players are sold and we will then be reliant on the loan market in September. Then we will have trouble getting the clubs to pay the players wages without any contribution from ourselves.

Agreed. Think City fans will back him to the hilt to be honest. The outside world will not be so forgiving though.

Sorry, but it may not be his fault but he would certainly get the blame. Think everyone has conveniently forgotten how last January we had a terrible injury crisis and brought no players in at all in the transfer window and we subsequently plummeted like a stone. Boothroyd was totally blamed...

Big chance at being a manager? Big chance at completely tarnishing his reputation and not getting another job in management more like! If I was him I'd walk if we sell more players and bring in no replacements for them!
