I think the idea was the midfield supported him, but it obviously didn't work out that way!

...It isnt an i love him he should come back thread, just a topic of discussion.

Whilst watching Parkin for Ipswich today he was being ironically jeered everytime he did something with the ball etc and didnt look to be up to much during the match,it looks as if he is struggling in the league above,

This is my point - once a player finds his level should he not continue to stay at that level and perform consistantly well in a side and be a hero, rather than thinking alot of themselves going to a higher level and failing, therefore lowering confidence and possibly never being able to return to their once best form?

As in dont leave a good thing? Parkin tried to succeed for years in league football, when he finally did it was with us then a few years later an ego and ambition got the better of him and he left for a higher league? He's not performing well and although hiensight (sp?!) is the best sight should players leave a good thing, when their careers are going well and possibly try and achieve their ambition with the club they are good for?
still has 2 goals in 4 games though

A while back people were questioning Leroy Lita being worth £1 million and Sam only £500,000. I thought at the time that Lita would be a bigger success in the Championship than Sam and so far he is proving me correct!

Difference in teams though.....

Lita is playing in a better team that is creating more chances, if Parkin was at Reading and Lita at Ipswich I bet Parkin would have more goals

I'm not 100% sure, Lita's pace is a massive advantage at Championship level. They would make a shit hot partnership I reckon.
