Paul Tisdale pleased with Sam Parkin influence

Exeter City boss Paul Tisdale says that he has been impressed with striker Sam Parkin's positive influence on the team.

Exeter City manager Paul Tisdale has admitted that he has been impressed with striker Sam Parkin's influence in the team.

The 32-year-old joined the League Two side during the summer after being released by St Mirren.

Parkin has scored two goals in seven appearances this season and Tisdale has praised the positive impact that the frontman has had upon the side.

"Sam does set a tone individually but he also helps other players play," Tisdale told BBC Radio Devon.

"He provides links with other units on the field and that means we can force the play at times a bit more.

"Sam is definitely one player in our team who gives us an extra dimension, he's different to other players but what he brings is something which we maybe used already to our advantage this season."

Exeter face Newport County on Saturday.
