simple, which one do you rate more.......and why. For me its parkin, he was immense, dont get me wrong Fjortoft was a great player however I never felt it meant as much to him as it did parkin.

Fjortoft by a mile for me.
Parkin would never even score a international goal and play in world cups neither will ever score 1 goal in the premier league.
Not having a dig at parkin just being realistic

Parkin for me, although I never saw Fjortoft.
Sammy was the highlight of some otherwise drab seasons and without him we'd have been bored to death.

Fjortoft: was of International class and showed it - on his day he was sublime, when I played junior football I did the aeroplane in his honour when I scored! The sad thing is both of his seasons at Swindon resulted in relegation.
Parkin: I will always looks back at Parkin's career at Town fondly though.

Fjortoft played for us in the premier league, was successful and got a move to another premier league club. Super Sammy played for us in the third tier. Much as I loved Parkin, you've got to say that Fjortoft was the better player.

No contest, Fjortoft by many miles, he also did it at the highest level (premiership and international level)

I have seen both play and think jan the man is the legend FACT. Now be quiet doorknob. You have put me off my stroke

Fjortoft, the fact that I never saw him play and know all about him says it all

Neither - The correct answer is Duncan Shearer  Shearer was class, agreed. Shame we never got to see him in the top flight after the stitch up. Which year was it when he scored 27? Quality finisher.

Fjortoft by a country mile, Parkin was good in League One and has not proven himself any higher (admittedly he has been injured) where as Fjortoft proved himself at the highest level. It looks with the way Luton is going Parkin may once again be playing in League 1 next season.... shame its with Luton and not us though!
