Every now and then I like to point out a player whose done well recently.
Mr Tom Parkes has done brilliantly in recent weeks. He started the season off the boil but has really grown into the season. He's just missing a goal at the moment.
There were a lot of good performances yesterday- Parkes amongst them.
During the first goal, as Gaffney controlled his ball I muttered to my dad: 'what a pass.' Gaffney still had a lot to do but the delivery by Parkes gave him a chance. And he does these sort of passes frequently when given time.
Proud he's in the quarters. He was made captain too early. Played in crazy positions. Had dips in form but he's come good.

He starts every season slow and finishes as one of our most valuable assets. A bit of a conundrum!

Think WeAreTheGas actually mentioned on GasCast after that Newport result that Parkes isn't 'naturally' very fit. Takes him a month or two to get up to speed I feel.

I don't think he starts the season 'Match fit' plays the season as if he's a new signing bedding in.
Given he had to deal with a lot of chopping and changing early doors: new system and brown injury made this even worse.
But he's a fantastic player. Another I'd happily sign 2 year extension.

Thought he was outstanding yesterday. And not for the first time.
