Jason Banton

Crystal Palace winger Jason Banton has been recalled from his loan at Plymouth.

The 20-year-old has flourished at the League Two club, scoring six goals in 14 appearances, and was named the division's best player for March.

His stint was in the South West was extended until the end of the campaign but Palace boss Ian Holloway decided to bring back the in-from star to help invigorate Palace's ailing promotion challenge.

Argyle manager John Sheridan said: "It's a big loss because he gives us a spark. He does things other players can't do. He's off-the-cuff and always a threat. It's a blow and I think Jason would like to have stayed, but it's not his decision.

"Credit to him - he's been getting a bit of notice; Palace aren't winning games, so they've recalled him. He's their player and I respect that. They've helped us out and he's done really well for us."
