IPSWICH will not be offering Tony Dinning a permanent deal at Portman Road.

Manager Joe Royle broke the news to the on-loan Wigan midfielder after training today.

Royle said: “I have had to tell Tony that we are not in a position to offer him a contract to extend his stay with us.

“He has done reasonably well for us but we must look to the future. There is money available to bring in one player on loan for a month and I can't use that on Tony.”
