We Can Turn Tables' – Dean

Returning Parrett wants Boro to fly high

- Tom Dean

DEAN Parrett’s return to Stevenage hasn’t got off to the start he would have liked, but he’s convinced good times are just around the corner.

The 27-year-old midfielder played for Boro from 2013 to 2016 after leaving Spurs and returned in the summer after spells with AFC Wimbledon and Gillingham.

He featured in their opening three games, scoring against Southend in the Carabao Cup, but was then sidelined with a knee injury for two months.

In that time, Stevenage struggled and manager Dino Maamria was sacked. There have been signs of an improvement under caretaker-boss Mark Sampson, though Boro remain second bottom in League Two.

Journey

Yet Parrett is optimistic that things can get back on track with games against fellow strugglers Oldham – managed by Maamria – and Walsall on the horizon.

“We need to start getting results against the teams around us. Then we can start looking up the table,” said Parrett.
