Mitch Hancox extends Crawley Town loan stay by further month

Birmingham City full-back Mitch Hancox has extended his stay at Crawley Town until the new year.

The 22-year-old, who initially joined the Reds in October, will now remain in place at the Broadfield Stadium until January 2.

Hancox has been used 11 times since linking up with the League Two outfit, scoring one goal and playing his part in a decent run of form which came to a halt against Northampton Town recently.

Crawley, managed by former Birmingham player Mark Yates, are currently 16th in the table.
