Joe Royle says the club are yet to make a decision on whether to allow Justin Miller to stay at Leyton Orient on a longer loan spell.
The central defender's third month at Brisbane Road is up on December 14th and manager Paul Brush has been reported to be keen to keep him until the end of the season.
South African Miller has been ever-present since moving to East London and, with his Town contract up at the end of the season, he will be keen to either secure another deal at Portman Road or impress managers elsewhere before May.
Town recently allowed the 21-year-old to play in the FA Cup first round for Orient against Margate, perhaps indicating that Royle doesn't see him as an immediate part of his plans.
