Parkinson hopes to land Robins striker

Sky Sports understands Bradford are lining up a move for Swindon Town striker Alan Connell. Connell joined Swindon from Grimsby last summer and helped them win promotion from League Two. The 29-year-old scored 13 goals in all competitions as Swindon won the League Two title and reached the Johnstone's Paint Trophy final. Robins boss Paolo Di Canio is thought to be willing to let Connell leave the County Ground having brought in James Collins and Andy Williams already this summer. A number of clubs have shown an interest in Connell, but Bradford boss Phil Parkinson is hopeful of luring him to Valley Parade.
