Parkin in No Rush - Ipswich Town News
Preston chairman Derek Shaw says that Town striker Sam Parkin is in no hurry to make a decision on his future. The Blues have accepted £300,000 bids from the Lilywhites and Luton Town for the former Swindon frontman.
Shaw said: "We've spoken to Sam. And we know he has spoken to Luton as he and his advisor have been very honest with us and I have been told that there are things which favour Luton and there are certainly factors which favour a move to Preston North End.
"He wants to sort out some things with Ipswich Town and he doesn't appear to be in a hurry to do this overnight but we should hear more next week.
"He and his advisor feel that perhaps he rushed into signing for Ipswich last time, he's lived out of a suitcase down there, and he wants the next move to be right for him because he feels at his age he needs to push on."
