Interest in Paul Parry
Paul Parry, the Bulls' 22 year-old winger, has been the target of attention from Bristol Rovers this week, but whether that interest will result in an offer for him is unclear at present. The story started last Tuesday when Hereford played Yeovil.
On Wednesday the Bristol Evening Post reported the first signs of attention in Parry as follows:
Last evening,Bristol Rovers assistant manager, John Still, took charge of the side for their clash at the Memorial Stadium against Torquay as boss Ray Graydon was elsewhere watching a potential transfer target in action.
"Ray was watching a player and it's somebody I've already seen, so there was no point me going, " said Still.
"I think it's somebody we will be very interested in signing and who could do a good job for us but, ultimately, the decision has to be down to the manager.
"I know the player very well and I'm sure he's somebody we'd want.
"The work ethic of the side is high now whether it's Ray here or me, so it's OK to do that.
"We do need a bit more strength in depth around the side and hopefully one or two situations we are watching could come to something positive."
It appears that Graydon wanted a second opinion on Parry as he sent John Still, the former Barnet boss, to Hereford yesterday despite Still saying that he had already seen him. With Parry scoring twice, he should have been impressed.
Should an offer be made for Parry it would need to be quite substantial as Hereford are not quite as desperate for cash at present as has been the case in the past.
A move to Bristol Rovers may not be that good a career move for Parry either as Rovers currently lie fifth from bottom of the third division. However the interest is a tribute to him as he will surely play in higher league football at some stage in his career.
