Franck Songo'o

Crystal Palace loanees Franck Songo'o and Paul Dickov have returned to their host clubs.

Songo'o has struggled to nail down a regular starting berth since joining from Portsmouth in October.

The 20-year-old winger asked to stay for an extra month to impress boss Neil Warnock after admitting he had not performed.

But he failed to deliver and goes back after making nine appearances for the South Londoners.

Experienced striker Dickov signed on Augusts's transfer deadline day making six starts and three sub appearances without scoring in the red 'n blue stripes.

A toe injury forced him on the sidelines in recent weeks and he returns to Manchester City where his future is uncertain.

Lewis Grabban returns from his loan stint at Scottish outfit Motherwell after featuring seven times.
