Jon Parkin?

Released by Cardiff. Would be a decent signing imo. Decent in both boxes, got a good touch for a big man and not afraid to put a shift in. Thought he offered us something different and effective last season

Fully agree, a right unit. Holds up ball very well. Hopefully for Reeves to run on too? No brainer.

We have Chris Brown. a fox in the box/goalcorer should be the first priority for Dean when it comes to signing strikers.

I like Chris Brown, but his injury record isnt great.

Brown, parkin, reeves and healy! That would do a job for us in league 1! Be decent if we could attract all of the latter 3, however it doesn't seem we are in a position to do anything currently! Sure there will be some activity soon though!

Too good for L1 and we couldn't afford him.

Healy and Brown with Reeves and Ball as back up would do me, Parkin would be a bit of a luxury (in terms of what we'd be spending, I'm guessing that is) but not one that I'd turn down (and not that Healy wouldn't be a luxury either).

As it goes, can't really see us getting Healy or Parkin, but one can live in hope.

We wont be getting Healy or Parkin, wages would be too high for both.

Brown
Kee
Reeves
Ball
Loanee (plus another if Ball goes on loan)

That would do me. Don't ask me who the loanees could be because i have no clue.

There is no way we could afford his wages. He is leaving a top Championship club and would have to take a wage cut of around 80% to join Rovers. Would you do that?

It's Scunny you're talking about, remember.  For me, from seeing most of his games for us, I thought he handled Championship defences extremely well: proper unit, good on the ball.  I reckon that shot was in at London Road as well, from my seat on the 6 yard line.

Anyway, if he's not pulling up trees he should be doing, I'll give you that.  He's big enough.
