Ferguson: Parkin more beauty than Beast

Preston boss Darren Ferguson believes the return of striker Jon Parkin will give his side a huge lift ahead of Saturday`s trip to Bristol City. Parkin was suspended for last weekend`s 1-0 defeat at Leicester and his physical presence was sorely missed. "Jon would have made a difference," said Ferguson. "We knew that would be the case because he's on form at the moment but we've got him back for Bristol City and that should make a difference."
