Happy Fox Posted 20 August 2012 Posted 20 August 2012 http://www.bristolrovers.co.uk/news/article/parkes-322698.aspx? Rovers agree terms with Leicester Bristol Rovers have agreed terms with Leicester City to bring Tom Parkes to the club on a permanent deal subject to medical. The defender, who spent almost four months on loan with Rovers last season, will join up with the squad later today, with a view to being involved in tomorrow night’s game against Barnet.
RobHawk Posted 20 August 2012 Posted 20 August 2012 Going to Bristol Rovers permanently. http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/0/football/19317713 That's one less center back at the club! Never looked likely to break into the first team but still surprising given our lack of CB's at the moment
glenny_fox Posted 20 August 2012 Posted 20 August 2012 I'm suprised out of Parkes and Bolger we've let Parkes go, although he was never going to be in the first team unless there were some serious injuries. Im still suprised about it.
Leicester_Numan Posted 20 August 2012 Posted 20 August 2012 Very surprised at that. You have to wonder if Pearson has got a signing in the pipeline
beemeroo Posted 20 August 2012 Posted 20 August 2012 I don't think this will be a huge surprise to anyone. Not quite good enough to cut it at this level. Good luck in the future Tom!
Happy Fox Posted 20 August 2012 Author Posted 20 August 2012 Moore is probably seen as more highly rated and can potentially play well at this level with Whitbread and St Ledger to come back, Parkes game time would be in the development squad and probably be of no benefit to him so going to Bristol Rovers will progress his career.
foxesfan1989 Posted 20 August 2012 Posted 20 August 2012 I'm surprised! I thought we were blooding him for the future.
dakin_fox Posted 20 August 2012 Posted 20 August 2012 Ian stringer posted on twitter that the bbc believe tom parkes is off to bristol rovers subject to a medical
Head Honcho Posted 20 August 2012 Posted 20 August 2012 Doubt he'll get a chance with us so he needs this.
kingfox Posted 20 August 2012 Posted 20 August 2012 Bert has just confirmed this himself on twitter aswell. Good move, had enough time to breakthrough, but despite his goal against Sunderland, he didn't look good enough. Good luck to him
Happy Fox Posted 20 August 2012 Author Posted 20 August 2012 It has been confirmed by the Bristol Rovers official website about 2 hours ago nothing new.
Milton Keynes Fox Posted 20 August 2012 Posted 20 August 2012 Any idea the kind of figure we received?
Fmfox Posted 20 August 2012 Posted 20 August 2012 hmm difficult to put a price on a young prospect like parkes, maybe 100k but im not really sure what a good deal would be?
Foxybeaver Posted 20 August 2012 Posted 20 August 2012 Just seen this confirmed on sky sports news, looks a good move for the lad dont think hes the same level as Moore
chili_con_carne Posted 20 August 2012 Posted 20 August 2012 http://www.brfcforum.co.uk/index.php?/topic/104858-parkes-to-sign/ Must have played well there last season ! What a reaction.
Fox92 Posted 20 August 2012 Posted 20 August 2012 Suprised at this to be honest, I thought he would have a decent future here, especially after featuring in pre season.
chili_con_carne Posted 20 August 2012 Posted 20 August 2012 http://www.brfcforum.co.uk/index.php?/topic/104858-parkes-to-sign/ What a reaction!
Bob Weasel Fox Posted 20 August 2012 Posted 20 August 2012 Its a good move for the lad, good luck to him This
