However with Town currentley experiencing and injury crisis, Joe Royle has recalled the former Middlesborough and Stockport man from his loan spell which was scheduled to end on April 12th, and admits Armstrong is very much in with a chance of first team action.
"We are going to keep him. We had a very youthful bench at Walsall and we just don't want to get caught short. I have great regard for Alun and although he is available on a free transfer and went out on loan, the door never closed on him as far as I'm concerned." he said speaking of the situation.
