LLOYD Dyer has returned to West Bromwich Albion after ending his loan spell with Kidderminster Harriers.

During his month at Aggborough he made five appearances in the starting line-up and two as a substitute.

Harriers manager Ian Britton said: "I would have liked to have kept Lloyd, but he wants to go back to Albion and try to force his way into the first team squad."

Britton, however, is hoping to keep striker Andy Bishop on loan from Walsall for a third month. He scored in Saturday's 2-1 win over Carlisle which ended Harriers' run of nine matches without a victory.

Britton, meanwhile, has extended the loan spell of Kidderminster front-runner Matt Lewis for another month with Dr Martens Premier Division outfit Hinckley United.

The teenager, however, will not be allowed to play in Hinckley's FA Cup match at Wakefield and Emley, so as not to become cup-tied for Harriers.
