Parkin heads to Rovers for month

Doncaster have signed Cardiff striker Jon Parkin on loan, subject to international clearance. The Yorkshireman, who will stay at the Keepmoat Stadium for an initial one-month spell, could make his debut for Rovers in Saturday's home match with Crystal Palace.

Parkin began his career at hometown club Barnsley. He scored 31 goals in just over 100 appearances for Preston before moving to Cardiff in a £100,000 deal in January this year.
