Striker calls for signings
Preston North End, 17:06, June 19, 2009 ,
Preston striker Jon Parkin has urged boss Alan Irvine to bring in some new players to bolster the club's first-team squad.
Parkin believes PNE need more strength in depth because injuries took their toll on the side during last season's long campaign.
He told the Lancashire Evening Post: "Hopefully a few new players will arrive because at times last season we got really stretched by people being out injured.
"It has been proven that clubs with the bigger squads tend to be more successful.
"In some games last season we were patching players up to play and they were doing really well to get through the matches."
