Duo Return To W12

Angelo Balanta and Martin Rowlands have returned to Loftus Road after brief loan spells away from W12.

Colombian Balanta has netted four goals for Milton Keynes Dons in 23 appearances and will be eligible to feature in the forthcoming encounter against the Dons in the FA Cup.

Balanta scored in Saturday’s draw against Brentford where the Dons surrendered a three goal advantage at Griffin Park.

This news comes as Martin Rowlands sees his loan spell at Wycombe Wanderers come to its conclusion – sadly fraught with the injuries that continue to blight his progress.

The former Brentford man made 11 appearances for Gary Waddock’s Chairboys, currently residing in the bottom four of npower League One.

* Three young players have penned professional deals with the club. Jamie Sendles-White, Jordan Gibbons and Freddy Champion have each signed contracts until the summer of 2013.
