Debut for Miller - Ipswich Town News
On loan defender Justin Miller will make his league debut this evening for Leyton Orient against Ian Atkins' Oxford United at Brisbane Road.
Miller moved to the East London side for a month late last week and was on the bench for their match with Lincoln on Saturday.
The South African told the club site: "The boss at Orient, Paul Brush, didn't want to throw me in at the deep end at the weekend but has told me that I will be playing tonight and I'm looking forward to it.
"Going on loan to Orient has given me the chance to play league football and that is what I need now."
Miller, Town's reserve captain, came on as sub in the first team friendly against Celta Vigo in August, the nearest he has got to a league appearance with the Blues.
