Rams return Sky Blues and Spurs men

Derby have ended the loan deals of Stern John and Johnnie Jackson, who have returned to their respective clubs – Coventry and Tottenham.

Rams boss Phil Brown explained to the official website: ‘The loan deals were officially up on the 17th and I wasn’t going to use them this weekend, so I’ve allowed them both to go back to their respective clubs.’

Neither player has exactly set Pride Park alight with his displays.
