Town reserves tonight take on Crystal Palace, however Town boss Joe Royle told the East Anglian Daily Times he does not wish to risk his skipper in the match: "It is important to have him back but it would be wrong to push him in too early."
Whilst Magilton himself also insisted that it may be best to miss the second strings match: "The reserves may be a little early but we will see. I will join in full first-team training on Thursday and Friday and hope to be there or thereabouts for Saturday's game."
