Calvin Andrew

Crystal Palace forward CALVIN ANDREW has joined Leyton Orient on loan until the end of the season.

ANDREW has struggled to forge his way into the Eagles first team, having made just nine appearances with one goal this season.

He has had loan stints with Swindon, Brighton and Millwall since arriving from Luton in the summer of 2008.

The 25-year-old is likely to go straight into the Orient squad for Saturday's League One match at home to Walsall.

Eagles defender Lee Hills, 21, has signed for League Two high fliers Southend United on loan for the rest of the season.

The left-back turned out for the Shrimpers reserves on trial this week and could make the switch to Essex permanent if he impresses.
