West Brom midfielder staying with Cheltenham

Cheltenham have agreed a deal with West Brom to keep midfielder Joss Labadie on loan for a second month. The Robins recruited the highly-rated 19-year-old in November and have seen enough to extend his stay. Cheltenham have also offered youngsters Kyle Haynes and Theo Lewis professional terms. The second-year scholarship players have progressed through the ranks from youth-team football. Caretaker boss John Schofield told the club's official website: "It is a big step for the football club as regards securing the future through the youngsters and our job now is to give them the chance to make further progress. "Both players have worked tirelessly and it's good to see them moving towards the next step on the ladder."
