GRAHAM Turner said he will not stand in the way of Paul Parry if Bristol Rovers make a move for the midfielder.

The Hereford United youngster is reportedly a target of Pirates' boss Ray Graydon but Turner has had no official approach from the Third Division club.

"I know they have been at our games but on Saturday Gravesend thought they were looking at one of their players," said Turner.

"I wouldn't want Paul to leave but I have always said I would never stand in his way though at the moment it is all just speculation."

Parry has been one of the most consistent performers at Edgar Street in recent years.

He signed a professional contract in 1998 after a successful YTS period at the club, and caught the eye in their FA Cup clash against Leicester City the following year, hitting the post with a fierce shot in the first match at Edgar Street.

Parry was a part of the Wales semi-professional team last year which collected the Unibond Four Nations tournament title.
