Town boss Joe Royle says he is in no rush to bring in another loan player, but admits he is still keeping an eye on the situation. Yesterday Royle said a newspaper claim that he was interested in Charlton defender Chris Powell had no foundation.

Royle says: "It is not something I am pursuing as a must. I am not ruling out a new signing this week, but it is more a possibility than a probability.

"A new man would keep my players on their toes, but I only have to look at our bench on Saturday in the win over Derby to reassure myself about the strength of our current squad."
