Yeovil have prolonged Crystal Palace goalkeeper Scott Flinders's emergency loan by a month.

The deal has been extended until April 12, making Flinders available for the Glovers' next six games.

First-choice 'keeper Steve Mildenhall is expected to be out until the beginning of next month after injuring his knee in an away game at Walsall in early February.

21-year-old Flinders has been at Huish Park for a month, and has kept two clean sheets to date.

The Rotherham-born player began his career at Barnsley, where he earned a call-up to the England Under-20 side, before joining Palace in 2006.

He has previously enjoyed loan spells at Gillingham and Brighton.
