Randolph Goes Back To West Ham

Former Hereford United keeper Darren Randolph is on the move again.
 

New West Ham manager David Moyes needs cover for Lucasz Fabianski's three-month absence with a thigh injury and has agreed a circa £4M deal to take Randolph back to London from Middleborough.
 

Randolph started his career with Charlton and came to Edgar Street on loan in July 2008.
 

He was praised for an 'outstanding' performance against Leeds when just one of their 19 shots on target went past him.
 

However his time with Hereford United is probably best remembered for a game he didn't play in.
 

Speculation that another goalkeeper, later revealed to be Matt Murray, would be joining the club upset Randolph and he refused to play in an FA Cup game against Dagenham and Redbridge on November 8th.
 

Manager Graham Turner wasn't happy and fined him two weeks wages and he didn't play for the Bulls again before going back to Charlton.
