Charlton Football Club have confirmed that the loan of goalkeeper Darren Randolph to Hereford United has been cancelled.
Randolph can play for Charlton in their FA Cup Tie against Norwich next Saturday assuming he is chosen. Had he played for Hereford in the FA Cup game against Dagenham and Redbridge in early November he would have been cup-tied.
As is well known he refused to play telling manager Graham Turner of his decision just two hours or so before kick-off. Current number one keeper Craig Samson deputised that afternoon.
With the loan cancelled 'at the onset of January' - according to Charlton - and Randolph being able to play on Saturday for them, it looks as if Graham Turner would be able to sign another keeper, should he want to, before Saturday.
Until this week he was prevented from signing a goalkeeper attached to a Conference or higher level club because, in theory at least, he had two fit keepers on the books.
Meanwhile what isn't revealed by Charlton is whether Hereford have to pay their element of Randolph's wages for the rest of the season - it was a season long loan.
