The speculation is over Keigan Parker is now officially a Blue!
Stan Ternent has made his first signing as town boss, and a very good one at that. Beating off stiff competition from Championship clubs Southampton, Swansea and Notts Forest and rumoured interest from Wolfsburg and Aberdeen!!
This is surely going to delight the majority of fans, whilst others may disagree.
Parker will sign when his contract at Blackpool expires and subject to passing a medical (fingers crossed)
Parker joined Blackpool from St Johnstone on a free transfer in 2004 and helped his team gain promotion to the Championship in 2006/7 by scoring 16 goals.
Including a spectacular winner in the play off final, Robbie Williams with the other goal in that game.
Manager Stan Ternent told the club’s official website: ‘He gives us another option up front and he is genuinely quick. He is proven at this level of football.
‘We’re really pleased to have him here but there are more to come.’
So there we have it, Parker confirmed who’s next at the Galpharm?
What or who do you think?

Excellent news
Im warming to the idea..!!! Hope he behaves and stays out of the sick bay..
I think he will ternent will see to that!
Ayee..Well Lee Martin has been sacked due to his poor affects on injury recoverys so theres a glimmer of new hope.Notice Ternent says “anouther option” he oviously isn’t building this team around parker.Hes just a additional strong improvment signing…So theres more to come !!

Hasn’t been announced.Got the chop a while ago.Dont think it has been regarded as that important or Lee wanted to leave on a quiet note.

Signing players no-one has heard of, going down
Im going down to the bookies to get some early odds on us thrashing your precious lilly whites tiny t…I take it that what you were hinting at..??? ..Oh,and while weve got your attention,could you tell us if theres any substance to rumour that the lilly whites are planning a merger with sadford..???
Good Luck Keigan,you have a pacy player but needs 10 chances to score 1 and has a tendency to fall over in the box and like your article says is proven at League One level.If ST can look after him you will have made yourselves a good signing .
Don’t know you better ask Preston….
Thanks Pickering! I’ve seen Blackpool a few times in recent years , Parker is a skillful nippy flair player, I’m personally happy he has signed here! ST will sort him out and keep a close eye on him! FL1 teams beware we are storming this year.
Parker and Jevons maybe ? Sounds good !
has lee martin really been sacked? it hasnt been on the website at all, i always quite liked him. talk about a clear out
yeahh he has.Not sure why it hasn’t been stated.Must have been regarded as not that important or Lee prefered the news not to be published as yet.
